| Additional information |
The Lion and The Eagle series pairs the British crown with the United States in an explicitly bilateral commemorative program — a format the Royal Mint has leaned on heavily since the mid-2010s to drive collector sales in the American market. These are not circulating issues and were never intended to be; the Royal Mint's bullion and proof programs have increasingly operated as a distinct commercial arm, with mintage limits and presentation packaging engineered for the gift and investment market rather than numismatic depth.
The dual KM references reflect the two-year production window across the reign designation change following Elizabeth II's death in September 2022.
