The arc legend THE LION AND THE EAGLE curves along the upper periphery, while the date 2026 appears in the lower exergual panel, flanked by decorative curved rules.

| Additional information |
The pairing of lion and eagle as heraldic symbols carries centuries of Anglo-American diplomatic weight, though the specific framing of this issue remains a Royal Mint promotional concept rather than one tied to any treaty, political event, or monetary legislation. Little of historical substance distinguishes it from other commemorative bullion issues in the current Charles III proof programme.
