An Unrivalled Achievement
Remastered by our skilled craftspeople using modern minting technology, the coin’s double-banded and raised edge inscription is considered a remarkable feat of engraving skill.

This two-coin set pays tribute to the Petition Crown’s beautiful reverse design and its masterfully created obverse, which features an elegant, life-like portrait of Charles II.
