| Beschrijving voorzijde | Uncrowned effigy of King Charles III facing left, rendered in high relief after the portrait by sculptor Martin Jennings. The mature, naturalistic bust fills the central field, with fine sculptural detail evident in the facial modelling and hair. The circumferential legend reads CHARLES III·D·G·REX·F·D·5 PENCE·2024, with the denomination and date positioned in the lower right arc and the engraver's initials MJ discreetly placed below the truncation. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Close-up profile effigy of Britannia facing left, helmeted and wearing a flowing diadem, her windswept hair and feathered crest rendered in dynamic relief after the design by Jody Clark. To her left, a crescent moon hovers in the field, while cresting ocean waves surge dramatically in the lower left, evoking Britannia's maritime sovereignty. The legend BRITANNIA 2024 arcs across the upper field, with the fineness inscription 1/40 OZ 999 FINE SILVER positioned beneath it to the left. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The 5 pence denomination in silver at this specification exists almost entirely as a collector artifact — the circulating 5p is cupro-nickel, and nothing about everyday commerce demanded a .999 silver version. The Royal Mint has leaned heavily into fractional silver in recent years, producing pieces at weights that align with international bullion marketing rather than any domestic monetary function. KM#2607 represents the first 5 pence type bearing Charles III's effigy in this format, making it a transitional reference point for the reign rather than a coinage of practical necessity.
