Obverse

The obverse of the 2025 1 oz Proof Silver Bounty Coin showcases King Charles III. The left-profile portrait was designed by Glyn Davies and shows the King without a crown. This depiction is among the first official images of Charles III used on modern coinage.

Reverse

On the reverse of the 2025 Proof Pitcairn Islands Silver Bounty Coin, you will see a detailed depiction of the HMS Bounty. The ship gained historical notoriety due to a mutiny fueled by dissatisfaction with Lieutenant Blighs rule and the crews desire to return to the more relaxed lifestyle they had enjoyed in Tahiti.

History

After the mutiny, Bligh and 18 loyal crew members were cast adrift in a small boat. Demonstrating remarkable navigation skills, Bligh managed to travel over 3,600 miles to reach safety in Timor. The mutineers initially returned to Tahiti, but some later sought refuge on Pitcairn Island to evade British authorities.
