On 14 November 2023, His Majesty King Charles III celebrated his 75th birthday. Born in Buckingham Palace on the evening of 14 November 1948, Charles Philip Arthur George became the first-born child of Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and His Late Royal Highness Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.
No heir apparent in British history has ever waited longer to become our monarch. For King Charles III, that moment finally arrived on 8 September 2022, with the death of his beloved mother. Eight months later, on 6 May 2023, he became the fortieth monarch since William the Conqueror in 1066 to be crowned inside Westminster Abbey.
The King Charles III 75th Birthday BU Gold Quarter Sovereign honours a monarch who has dedicated his life to the service of others. The coin has been struck to the traditional sovereign specifications in solid 22-carat gold just six months after his coronation.
Featuring Raphael Maklouf’s acclaimed new portrait of King Charles III on the obverse, and his official royal cypher on the reverse, the coin is supplied in a black presentation case with a numbered certificate of authenticity and provides a fitting way to mark our monarch’s 75th birthday in his coronation year.
