King approves new sovereign seal

  • During this week’s Privy Council meeting, the King gave his formal consent to a newly designed Great Seal of the Realm, which features his image seated on a throne.

  • The new seal displays an image of the King on one side, while the opposite side features the Royal Arms created by the heraldic artist Timothy Noad.
  • The approval signifies the completion of the official handover to the King's rule and contributes to the collection of national symbols created by the Royal Mint.
  • The Great Seal continues to signify royal approval on official documents and serves as a unique emblem for each monarch’s reign.
