King Charles I’s reign remains one of the most fascinating and historically significant chapters in British history.

His legacy—defined by grandeur, conviction, and conflict—is still etched in the monarchy today.

And in 2025, we mark the 400th anniversary of his accession. To commemorate the milestone, just 50 historic coin and stamp covers have been authorised for worldwide release.
