The Royal Mint is the United Kingdom's official coin producer and one of the oldest mints in the world. Trusted for over 1,100 years, it continues to issue iconic bullion and commemorative coins, such as the Gold Sovereign and Britannia, renowned for their quality, security, and investment appeal.
The Royal Mint - Over a Millennium of Minting Excellence
Founded over 1,100 years ago, The Royal Mint is the United Kingdom's official producer of coins and precious metal products. With a heritage that traces back to the 9th century, The Royal Mint is one of the oldest continuously operating mints in the world, trusted globally for the production of coins, commemoratives, and high-purity bullion.
Operating from its modern facility in Llantrisant, South Wales, The Royal Mint combines centuries of tradition with cutting-edge technology. Its bullion coin range includes some of the most recognised and respected investment products in the world, including the Gold Sovereign, the Gold Britannia, and the Queen's Beasts and Tudor Beasts series.
All bullion coins produced by The Royal Mint are struck to exacting standards, with advanced security features and strict quality control. For UK investors, many of these coins offer tax advantages - including VAT exemption and Capital Gains Tax (CGT) exemption - making them both a secure and efficient way to invest in physical gold and silver.
The Royal Mint's reputation is not only built on the quality of its products but also on its integrity, trustworthiness, and innovation. From minting the circulating coinage of the UK to crafting limited-edition collectables and investment-grade bullion, The Royal Mint remains a global leader in precious metal production.
At Gold Traders, we are proud to be an official Royal Mint Partner, giving our customers access to genuine, newly issued bullion coins, sourced directly from the mint. Whether you're purchasing your first coin or adding to a growing portfolio, coins from The Royal Mint offer a combination of legacy, liquidity, and long-term value.
Coins featuring His Majesty King Charles III mark a new chapter in British numismatic history. From 2022 onwards, The Royal Mint began issuing gold and silver coins bearing the official portrait of King Charles III, making these pieces highly collectable and historically significant.
Coins Bearing the Portrait of King Charles III
\r\n
The accession of King Charles III in September 2022 ushered in a new era for the British monarchy and UK coinage. In keeping with long-standing Royal Mint tradition, the monarch's effigy is updated on all newly issued legal tender coins. Coins bearing the image of His Majesty King Charles III are therefore of great historical and cultural importance, representing the first design change to the obverse of British coinage in 70 years.
\r\n
The first coins to feature King Charles III entered circulation and bullion markets in late 2022. The official effigy, designed by acclaimed British sculptor Martin Jennings, depicts the King facing left - in keeping with numismatic tradition, which alternates the direction of each new monarch's portrait.
\r\n
Coins minted with the portrait of King Charles III span both commemorative and bullion ranges. This includes popular investment coins such as the Gold Sovereign, Gold Britannia, and Silver Britannia, as well as limited-edition releases to mark significant national occasions, such as the Coronation Sovereign issued in 2023.
\r\n
These coins are not only legal tender but also form an essential part of British numismatic history. They appeal to both collectors and investors due to their historical importance, high precious metal content, and, in many cases, tax advantages - such as Capital Gains Tax (CGT) exemption for UK-issued gold legal tender coins.
\r\n
At Gold Traders, we offer a wide selection of King Charles III coins sourced directly from The Royal Mint. Whether you're interested in bullion-grade Sovereigns, investment-grade Britannias, or historic commemoratives, each coin is authenticated, securely packaged, and available for fully insured UK delivery or collection from our premises.
