In 1787, the Royal Navy acquired a merchant ship that would later become one of the most legendary vessels in history. Renamed HMS Bounty, the ship was refitted to transport breadfruit plants from Tahiti to the West Indies under the command of Lieutenant William Bligh. Initially unremarkable, the HMS Bounty’s story would take a dramatic turn, securing its place in naval history. Right now, 2025 1/2 Gram Pitcairn Islands Gold Bounty Coins are available from BullionMax.

Following the infamous mutiny aboard the HMS Bounty, the crew split into factions, each seeking refuge from British authorities. Fletcher Christian and a group of mutineers, along with several Tahitians, ultimately settled on the remote Pitcairn Island. While their colony faced significant challenges, including internal conflict and violence, the descendants of the mutineers still inhabit Pitcairn Island today, maintaining one of the most isolated communities in the world.

The obverse of the 2025 Pitcairn Islands Gold Bounty Coin features the first coin portrait of King Charles III. Designed by Jody Clark, this left-profile relief shows the monarch without a crown, capturing a modern depiction of the king.

On the reverse, the 2025 1/2 Gram Gold Bounty Coin showcases the HMS Bounty in full sail. This image pays tribute to the ship’s complex legacy, from its mission to transport breadfruit to its role in the mutiny and the settlement of the Pitcairn Islands.
