The history of the Royal Arms dates back to the rule of King Richard I at the end of the 12^th^century. This famous warrior king of the British spent most of his decade-long reign engaged in battles outside of the kingdom. This included the defense of his family lands in France and in the Holy Land during the Third Crusade. Richard I marched his forces into battle with an insignia bearing three lions in passant guardant pose. This emblem was adopted in 1198 as the first Royal Arms of England. Though the modern Royal Arms includes various symbols, the Three Lions remains at the heart as the coat of arms of England.

On the obverse of 2023 10 oz Silver Royal Arms Coins, you will find the first British coin portrait of King Charles III. Designed in 2022 by Martin Jennings, this bust of Charles III flips his orientation to left-profile relief and comes with no crown. The change in orientation of the portrait compared to Her Late Majesty and the absence of a crown on a male monarch both follow British coin design traditions. The reverse side of the 2023 British Silver Royal Arms Coin comes with Timothy Noad’s interpretation of the modern Royal Arms. This design features a quartered shield with the Imperial Crown at the top, the Lion of England on the left, and the Unicorn of Scotland on the right. *Please note that slight imperfections such as spotting or minor marks may be present from the minting and/or manufacturing process. These characteristics are typical of bullion production and do not compromise the metal’s value or authenticity.*
