2026 Gothic Horror Frankenstein's Monster 1oz .999 Fine Silver Bullion Coin – United Kingdom – The Royal Mint
Enter the dark world of classic Gothic literature with the 2026 Frankenstein's Monster 1oz Silver Bullion Coin from The Royal Mint. Issued as the second design in the Gothic Horror bullion collection, following the inaugural Count Dracula release, this dramatic British coin celebrates Mary Shelley's groundbreaking 1818 novel Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus. Struck from one troy ounce of .999 fine silver and limited to a maximum worldwide mintage of just 50,000 coins, it combines investment-grade precious metal with one of literature's most enduring and recognisable creations.
Designed by William Webb, the reverse features a striking depiction of Frankenstein's Monster surrounded by dramatic lightning, visible stitching and the apparatus associated with the creature's creation. Intricate Gothic detailing and microdot security features enhance the composition, while the inscriptions identify the subject, 2026 release date, silver weight and purity. The obverse displays Martin Jennings' official uncrowned portrait of King Charles III, together with the coin's £2 legal-tender denomination and finely engraved guilloché security detailing. This exceptional design brings together Mary Shelley's influential literary masterpiece and The Royal Mint's modern bullion craftsmanship.
Measuring 38.61mm in diameter and containing one troy ounce of .999 fine silver, the 2026 Frankenstein's Monster coin offers an outstanding addition to Royal Mint collections, Gothic Horror series and literary-themed precious-metal holdings. Its limited mintage, dramatic artwork and King Charles III portrait create collectible appeal beyond the underlying silver content. Individual coins are supplied inside protective capsules, while full tubes of 25 coins are supplied together in their original Royal Mint coin tubes rather than individually capsuled. A fascinating modern British bullion release combining historic storytelling, precious-metal value and exceptional craftsmanship.
