Each 2025 5 oz British Silver The Lion and The Eagle Coin is presented in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. The coins are housed in protective plastic capsules and feature a reverse design that celebrates the enduring partnership between the United Kingdom and the United States. This impressive artwork was designed by John Mercanti, who served as the 12th Chief Engraver of the United States Mint.

The relationship between the UK and the US grew significantly closer after World War II through efforts like the Marshall Plan and joint support in events such as the Suez Crisis, Korean War, and other global conflicts. Intelligence sharing through the Five Eyes alliance exemplifies the deep trust between the two nations. Historic partnerships between leaders, like Thatcher and Reagan or Blair and Bush, reflect the strength of the bond, which endures despite occasional policy differences. Today, this alliance continues to thrive through robust diplomatic, military, economic, and cultural ties.

On the obverse of the 2025 British Silver The Lion and The Eagle Coin is the effigy of King Charles III. Shown in left-profile relief, His Majesty is depicted without a crown in this first-generation design created by Martin Jennings in late 2022.

The reverse of the 2025 5 oz Silver The Lion and The Eagle Coin features a detailed depiction of the American bald eagle and the British Lion. The eagle, a national symbol of the United States, is positioned prominently in the foreground, while the majestic British Lion is set behind it, both looking to the right in right-profile relief.
