| Obverse description | Uncrowned effigy of King Charles III facing left, modelled by engraver Martin Jennings, rendered in high relief with naturalistic detail to the hair and facial features. The truncation is bare, and the engraver's initials MJ appear discreetly below the bust. The Latin legend surrounds the effigy, reading CHARLES III · DEI · GRA · REX · FID · DEF · 2025 ·, disposed around the full circumference of the coin. The date 2025 appears at the base of the legend. The field is mirror-polished to proof standard, providing strong contrast with the frosted portrait. |

| Reverse description | The reverse depicts the Hanoverian Royal Arms of George IV, faithfully reproduced after the original design used on the sovereign coinage of the 1820s. The quartered shield displays the arms of England (three lions passant guardant), Scotland (lion rampant), Ireland (harp), and Hanover (incorporating the crowns and horse of Brunswick, Lüneburg, and Westphalia with the crown of Charlemagne), the last quarter bearing an escutcheon of the Hanoverian arms surmounted by a crown. The ornate cartouche-style shield is surmounted by the Royal Crown, and is flanked by decorative baroque scroll mantling. The surrounding Latin legend reads ARMA GEORGII IV BRITANNIARUM REGIS, disposed along the left and right periphery of the field. |
