Abstract
The text provides an overview of the Trial of the Pyx, an annual judicial proceeding in the UK that tests the quality and accuracy of newly minted coins. The trial, which has a long history dating back to the reign of Edward I, involves a jury from the Goldsmiths' Company who count and weigh the coins to ensure they meet the required standards. The 2024 trial specifically reviewed the coins featuring the likeness of King Charles III. The text highlights the significance of the trial as a celebration of the monarch and the craftsmanship of the Royal Mint. [Extracted from the article]
