The King Penguin is the second-largest penguin species, second only to the Emperor Penguin. These birds are well adapted for life in the water, using their strong flippers and sleek bodies to navigate the ocean with ease. The Tower Mint pays tribute to these fascinating creatures of East Falkland in the Falkland Islands with a new coin series issued on behalf of the Falklands. Right now, Provident Metals offers the 2025 Reverse Proof Falkland Islands King Penguin 1 oz Silver Coin.
Highlights:
Each 2025 Reverse Proof Falkland Islands King Penguin 1 oz Silver Coin is housed inside a protective plastic capsule and presented in a Tower Mint display box. The coin also includes a Certificate of Authenticity. The reverse-proof finish enhances the design by pairing a frosted background with polished, mirror-like elements, creating a striking contrast.
Obverse
The obverse of the 2025 Reverse Proof Falkland Islands King Penguin Silver Coin presents a left-profile portrait of King Charles III. This uncrowned effigy of His Majesty was created by Glyn Davies. Inscriptions include CHARLES III, D.G. REX., FALKLAND ISLANDS, 5, and 2025.
Reverse
The reverse of the 2025 Reverse Proof King Penguin 1 oz Silver Coin features a detailed depiction of King Penguins in an icy landscape. A large King Penguin is positioned in the foreground, with four more penguins in the background, including an adult tending to its chick on the right. The Falkland Islands are home to approximately 1,500 breeding pairs, with most found at Volunteer Point on East Falkland. Inscriptions read FALKLAND ISLANDS and KING PENGUIN.
History
King Penguins thrive in sub-Antarctic regions, forming large colonies on islands where cold Antarctic currents meet milder sub-Antarctic waters. The largest breeding groups are found on South Georgia, the Crozet Islands, the Prince Edward Islands, and the Kerguelen Islands. These colonies can number in the thousands, with some reaching hundreds of thousands of breeding pairs.
