The obverse of the 2026 Pitcairn Islands Gold Queen’s Beast Lion Coin showcases King Charles III. As the eldest son of Queen Elizabeth II, Charles became king in September 2022 following her passing and was formally crowned in May 2023. The left-profile portrait seen here was designed by Glyn Davies and appears on select coin programs produced by Tower Mint.

On the reverse of the 2026 1/2 Gram Gold Queen’s Beast Lion Coin is the Lion of England alongside the Royal Signet of Queen Elizabeth II. Throughout Elizabeth II’s reign, the Lion of England served as the principal supporter of the Royal Arms of the United Kingdom. Positioned beside the royal shield, the lion has been a familiar symbol associated with English and British monarchs for centuries.

The Lion of England remains one of the most recognizable symbols of the English Crown. Long associated with strength, courage, and royal authority, it has appeared in English heraldry for more than 800 years. As a central figure in the nation’s heraldic tradition, the lion represents the monarch’s duty to protect and serve the realm.
