The King Penguin is the second-largest species of penguin, with only the Emperor Penguin being larger. These birds are highly adapted for swimming, using their flippers and compact bodies to navigate through cold waters efficiently. The Tower Mint honors these penguins of East Falkland in the Falkland Islands with a gold and silver coin series. Today, 2025 1/2 Gram Falkland Islands Gold King Penguin Coins are available from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
As ocean temperatures rise, the distribution of the primary food sources of King Penguins shifts further south, making it more difficult for some colonies to sustain themselves. Scientists warn that certain populations could struggle in the coming decades, particularly those on islands that may become too distant from key feeding grounds.
All 2025 1/2 Gram Falkland Islands Gold King Penguin Coins are available in Brilliant Uncirculated condition and come with a protective plastic flip. This coin represents part of a new series of annual coins from the Falkland Islands that will feature new reverse designs each year.
The obverse of 2025 Falkland Islands Gold King Penguins features King Charles III in a left-profile portrait created by Glyn Davies. This depiction of the king follows the traditional format of British, Commonwealth, and territorial coinage, where monarchs appear without crowns.
On the reverse of 2025 1/2 Gram Gold King Penguin Coins, a flock of King Penguins is depicted. The design features a large adult in the foreground, while four additional members of the colony, including a chick, are shown in the background. The Falkland Islands serve as an important breeding ground for this species, with Volunteer Point hosting the largest known population.
