There are coins you buy. And there are coins you own – with pride, with reverence, with the knowledge of holding something truly rare in your hands.

With a worldwide mintage of just 75 pieces, this platinum coin is a numismatic event without equal.
A Portrait for Eternity – The Machin Masterpiece in Platinum
During her more than 70-year reign, a total of five different official portraits adorned the coins of the United Kingdom. The second of these likenesses was created by British sculptor Arnold Machin and was first introduced in 1968. It depicts the young Queen Elizabeth II in profile, adorned with a tiara of delicate garlands, scrolls, and collet points – a wedding gift from her grandmother Queen Mary. Machin chose this depiction deliberately, and it shaped the image of British coinage for decades.
What makes this issue so extraordinary: it represents the first-ever striking of this legendary Machin portrait on a platinum coin by the Royal Mint. The reverse side shows the Queen's portrait against a fascinating radial pattern that emanates from the centre and extends across the entire coin field. Above it, the inscription "PORTRAIT OF A QUEEN" and the life dates "1926–2022". An image of timeless elegance.
The Obverse: King Charles III in Profile
The obverse bears the current portrait of King Charles III in right-facing profile, surrounded by the inscription "CHARLES III · D · G · REX · F · D · 100 POUNDS" and the year of issue 2026. Two monarchs on one coin – past and present of the British Crown, united in purest platinum.
Why This Coin Is an Absolute Collector's Piece
75 pieces. Worldwide. Let that number sink in. In a world where even "limited" mintages often encompass thousands or tens of thousands of examples, this coin redefines exclusivity entirely.

- Prestigious presentation: Delivered in the Royal Mint's premium wooden case with viewing window and official certification
Platinum – The Underestimated Precious Metal with Enormous Potential
Platinum has been known for over 2,000 years and – just like gold – has never reached a value of zero. It possesses an intrinsic value that is recognised worldwide, both in industry and among precious metals investors. As a hedge against inflation and currency risks, platinum plays an increasingly important role. It is significantly rarer than gold: annual production volumes amount to only a fraction of what is extracted from the earth in gold. Those who invest in platinum are therefore investing in a metal with natural scarcity and real tangible asset value.
"Five portraits, one Queen, one precious metal of unparalleled purity – this coin is more than a striking. It is a piece of British history, cast in 31.10 grams of purest platinum."
