Description
GREAT BRITAIN: (2023) King Charles III Britannia 1oz Gold 100 Pound Coin. Obverse: Designer is Martin Jennings. Uncrowned portrait of King Charles III facing left. Legend: CHARLES III.D.G.REX.F.D.100 POUNDS. The obverse has a textured background ("guilloche" geometric pattern) and a crenellated (toothed) border termed "castellation" by the mint. Reverse: In centre the standing figure of Britannia facing left, with flowing robes, wearing a crested Corinthian helmet pushed back to reveal her face. She is holding a trident in her right hand; her left hand rests on a shield decorated with the cross of the Union Jack, and holds an olive branch. She is standing on a rock, with sea waves in the background. The designer's surname NATHAN (Philip Nathan) is in relief in small letters on the rock under Britannia's feet. Legend: BRITANNIA .2023.1 oz .999.9.FINE.GOLD. There are four advanced security features built into the design: - in the lower left, a latent image changes from a padlock to Britannia "surface animation" brings the background of sparkling waves to life as the coin is moved - micro text gives both decoration and protection - the words DECUS ET TUTAMEN (from Latin: "an ornament and a safeguard") are repeated multiple times in the inner rim between the central circle with the design and the outer rim with the inscriptions - Britannia "heraldic colours") representing the colours of the flag. Edge: Milled.
