| Beschrijving voorzijde | Uncrowned right-facing effigy of King Charles III occupies the central field, rendered in high relief after the portrait by Martin Jennings. The circular legend reads CHARLES III·DEI·GRA·REX·FID·DEF·2023, separated by raised dots and arranged around the bust. A small Tudor crown privy mark appears in the lower right field, and the engraver's initials MJ are incused below the truncation. The mirrored proof field provides a sharp contrast against the finely detailed portrait. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The capercaillie — a large grouse native to Scotland's ancient Caledonian pinewoods — has been in freefall for decades, with the UK breeding population estimated at fewer than 500 individuals by the early 2020s. Its inclusion in this series reflects a broader Royal Mint push to spotlight endangered British wildlife, a theme that has proven commercially durable since the original 50p wildlife series of the 2000s. Whether a proof coin shifts conservation outcomes is another question entirely.
The KM#2438a designation distinguishes this silver proof striking from the base-metal circulation issue, both produced under the first years of the Charles III coinage transition following the September 2022 accession.
