| Obverse description | Uncrowned effigy of King Charles III facing left, rendered in high relief after the portrait by sculptor Martin Jennings, with engraver's initials MJ visible at the truncation of the neck. The circumferential legend reads CHARLES III · D · G · REX · F · D · 500 POUNDS, with the date 2024 positioned in the lower arc of the field. The portrait displays fine detail in the rendering of facial features and hair, set against a deeply mirrored proof field. |

| Reverse description | The iconic Snowman character from Raymond Briggs' celebrated animated film stands to the right of centre, wearing his trademark checked hat and scarf, raising one arm to place a star atop a tall, elaborately detailed Christmas tree. The tree is adorned with multicoloured gemstone insets representing baubles, and a five-pointed star finial crowns its apex. Snow-covered fir trees fill the background on both left and right, and falling snowflakes are scattered across the field, evoking a wintry festive scene. The entire composition is rendered in high relief against a proof-finish field, with contrasting textures between the polished Snowman effigy and the finely frosted foliage of the trees. |
