The Royal Mint has chosen Stack’s Bowers Galleries once again to auction historic first strike coinage. On September 30 and October 1, 2024, the very first coins struck of the Lion and Eagle, Britannia and Liberty, Coronation, and Coronation Britannia gold and silver bullion series will be presented for sale. The auction is now available for viewing and pre-sale bidding at StacksBowers.com.
These coins are significant for being among the first produced in the name of King Charles III, and they represent some of the most inspiring and innovative designs to emerge from The Royal Mint. Presented are the first coins struck of the 2023 Coronation 1 oz gold and silver bullion coins, the 2023 Coronation Britannia 1 oz gold and silver bullion coins, the 2024 Britannia and Liberty 1 oz gold, ¼ oz gold, and 1 oz silver bullion coins, as well as the 2024 Lion and Eagle 1 oz gold and silver bullion coins.
Each coin will be presented individually across two live bidding sessions. All are graded and encapsulated by leading grading service Numismatic Guaranty Company (“NGC”) with custom labels to recognize their historic significance. Coins of the highest significance will also feature labels with signatures from Royal Mint CEO Anne Jessopp and the King’s Assay Master Daniel Thomas.
