The King Penguin is the second-largest species of penguin, with only the Emperor Penguin being larger. These birds are well-adapted to life in the water, using strong flippers and robust bodies for efficient swimming. The Tower Mint honors these inhabitants of East Falkland in the Falkland Islands with a gold and silver coin series issued on behalf of the Falklands. Today, 2025 1 oz Proof Falkland Islands Silver King Penguin Coins are available at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
A unique aspect of King Penguin biology is their extended breeding cycle, which spans 14 to 16 months. Due to this lengthy process, successful pairs can only rear two chicks every three years. During incubation, the parents take turns cradling their single egg on their feet, shielding it with a flap of abdominal skin known as the brood patch. This specialized adaptation enables them to breed even during the harsh sub-Antarctic winter.
All 2025 1 oz Proof Falkland Islands Silver King Penguin Coins are individually housed in a protective capsule and presented in a Tower Mint display box. The coin’s proof strike enhances its design with frosted devices against mirrored backgrounds for striking contrast.
The obverse of the 2025 Proof Falkland Islands Silver King Penguin Coin showcases a left-profile portrait of King Charles III, designed by Glyn Davies. This is one of several first-generation portraits of His Majesty in use throughout the Commonwealth and British Overseas Territories.
On the reverse of 2025 1 oz Proof Silver King Penguin Coins, a flock of King Penguins is depicted in an arctic scene, with one prominent adult in the foreground and additional birds, including a juvenile, in the background. Volunteer Point on East Falkland is home to the majority of the 1,500 breeding pairs found in the Falklands.
