King Charles III amount of different coin types in your collection

7 posts • viewed 111 times

Hello collectors and numismatists! Its been 3 years more or less since King Charles III portrait started gracing our coins as a monarch. Post the amount of different types you have already in your collections. UK coins, territories and crown dependencies and any country that uses the monarchies portrait on the obverse of their coinage will count towards it. Not bothered about proofs of said collections will take your words at face value excuse the pun. Not so strict with what constitutes a coin whether circulating,non circulating or commemorative/circulating commemorative aslong as the coins in question have a face value. Also name the country you have the most coins from featuring the Kings portrait!. I will post my number and amount of states I have coins from featuring the mentioned subject above when I have done a detailed count as some aren't listed in the Numista catalogue at the moment. Look forward to any replies if anyone takes the challenge on! Photos welcome of course!.

off the top of my head, mine should be Canada first and UK second. I’d have to play around with the catalogue to figure out how many Charles coins I have, but it would interesting to know. 

16 from Canada and 5 from the UK 

 

I have the crowded effigy of Charles 50p and 5£ too

Here is my completed list after a detailed search.

 

British Antarctic territory 1
Gibraltar 5
Pitcairn islands 7
United Kingdom 44
Canada 2
Jersey 6
Guernsey 3
Falkland islands 1
Solomon islands 24

Ghana 1 . 

 

So 10 countries overall and 94 coins. Most of which are non circulating commemoratives and UK reigning supreme among my numbers as I have alot of non circulating 50 pence in the collection. 

Just incase you're wondering how Ghana made the list. This isn't listed in the Numista catalogue yet. A monster of a coin at 65 mm diameter.

 

 

Not that many 31 coins in total.

 

1 x NZ proof set 2024 (with 2 x $1 silver coins ).5 oz each of .999 silver - $2, $1, 50c, 20c, 10c

Australian $2 coins x 3, $1 coins x 4, 1 x 50c, 2 x 10c and 1 x 5c

British 50p (Coronation x 1 and Succession x 1)

Silver Britannia coins x 11 (2023 x 1) and (2025 x 10).

 

But give it time.

I love coins. Especially silver, gold and anything really old.

Still a great number. I stopped buying the non circulating 50 pence commemoratives as they doubled the price in less than a year even the cheapest supplier. Was happy paying £5 for non circulating 50ps,price of a pint thesedays in most pubs for a coin you'l never find in change but now a tenner atleast or more for some issues is taking the mickey a little when its not even coming in royal mint packaging even just a small card and you could get the standard Coronation £5 coin for that price when it released in simple non labelled card which was good . Glad I bought a lot of the 50ps when I did at the £5 mark but I will only buy more now if I really like the design.
