Rendition of the Original Una and the Lion Coin

The innovative image was created by award-winning wildlife artist Carroll Hutchings. The inscription “UNA & THE LION” and the year of issue 2024, represented as the Roman numerals “MMXXIV,” appear near the lion.

Obverse: The obverse bears a portrait of His Majesty King Charles III in a left facing pose.  Credit for the royal effigy belongs to renowned British sculptor Glyn Davies.
