Royal Maundy Ceremony

Maundy pennies are not ordinary coins; they are specially struck for the annual Royal Maundy ceremony, a centuries-old tradition in which the monarch distributes silver coins to selected recipients in recognition of service and humility. This ceremony, inspired by the biblical commandment to "love one another," has been a cherished part of royal history since the reign of Charles II.
