King Charles III's First Maundy Money Coins


The Royal Maundy ceremony takes place each year on Maundy Thursday. During the ancient ceremony, the monarch gifts specially struck coins to men and women chosen because of the Christian service they have given to the Church and the community. Here are the first coins of King Charles III's reign struck in 2023.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
