100 Pounds - Charles III Queen's Lion, 1oz Fine Gold

The Queen's Beast series concluded under Elizabeth II, but the Royal Mint has continued issuing individual Beast designs under Charles III as standalone bullion releases rather than a unified program — a quieter continuation without the serialized collecting framework that drove the original ten-coin run. The Lion of England, first in that original sequence, reappears here in what amounts to a second reign's reissue of the same heraldic charge.

The .9999 fineness places this above the original Queen's Beast strikes, which were produced at .9999 only for some issues and .999 for others.
