About the portrait

King Charles III – Martin Jennings portrait (2022–present on sovereigns)

Overview
Martin Jennings’ uncrowned left-facing bust of King Charles III continues the tradition of alternating portrait directions. The design is intended to be a faithful likeness with crisp detailing.

Years of use
• Debut on UK circulation and commemorative coinage in late 2022.
• Sovereigns. First appears on the 2022 Memorial sovereigns and continues thereafter.

Designer initials
MJ on the truncation.

Relevance to sovereign collectors
• The first definitive portrait of King Charles III on UK sovereigns.
• The 2022 Memorial sovereigns pair the Jennings obverse with a memorial reverse by Jody Clark.

Notable notes
• Subsequent Charles III sovereigns include special designs such as the 2023 Coronation issues.
• Obverse legend and Latin titles differ from Elizabeth II coinage in line with the new monarch.

Precious Metal Price Fluctuations

Please note that the prices of precious metals, such as gold and silver, are subject to fluctuations due to market conditions. As a result, the price of our bullion products can change frequently.

When you place an order, the price is locked in at the time of purchase, ensuring you pay the agreed amount regardless of any subsequent market movements.

We recommend acting quickly if you see a price that suits your investment strategy, as prices can vary significantly in a short period.

Buying New or Preowned Gold and Silver

At Sovara Coins, we offer both new and preowned gold and silver products to suit various investment strategies. Purchasing preowned bullion can be a cost-effective option, as it often comes with a lower premium over the spot price, allowing you to maximize your investment.

While preowned items may show minor signs of wear, such as scratches, milk spots or tarnishing, they are sold strictly as bullion, with their precious metal content fully guaranteed. Whether you choose new or preowned, you can be confident in the quality and authenticity of our products.
