The multilayered beaver series from the RCM has become one of the mint's more technically demanding product lines, requiring precise die registration across multiple striking phases to achieve the stepped relief effect without misalignment. Few national mints attempt this at the 110-gram scale, where metal flow at the edges becomes genuinely difficult to control.
Charles III's accession in September 2022 triggered a substantial retooling across Commonwealth mints — effigies had to be approved, dies recut, and product lines reauthorized before the new monarch could appear on issued pieces. The 2025 date reflects how long that pipeline actually takes for collector products at this complexity level.
