| Additional information |
Piedfort coins — struck at twice the standard thickness on specially prepared planchets — have been a Royal Mint collector format since their modern revival in 1982, initially produced for the 20 pence piece. This example pairs that format with the Maklouf effigy of Elizabeth II, the third definitive portrait used on British coinage, introduced in 1985 and retired in 1997. Reuniting it with a Charles III reverse creates a posthumous juxtaposition that reflects the convention of carrying forward predecessor portraits on memorial and commemorative issues.
