Early in his reign, Great Britain defeated France in the Seven Years War, becoming the dominant European power in North America and India.
However, many of its American colonies were soon lost in the American Revolutionary War, which led to the establishment of the United States of America.
A further series of wars against revolutionary and Napoleonic France, over a 20-year period, finally concluded in the defeat of Napoleon in 1815.
In the later part of his life, George III suffered from recurrent and eventually permanent mental illness.
Note: John Sigismund Tanner, was engraver to the Royal Mint 1741 to 1775.

George III was King of Great Britain and King of Ireland from 25 October 1760 until the union of the two countries on 1 January 1801, after which he was King of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland until his death. He was concurrently Duke and prince-elector of Brunswick-Lüneburg in the Holy Roman Empire before becoming King of Hanover on 12 October 1814. He was the third British monarch of the House of Hanover, but unlike his two predecessors, he was born in England, spoke English as his first language, and never visited Hanover.
Lived: 04 Jun 1738 - 29 Jan 1820 (age 81)
Spouse: Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz (m. 1761 - 1818)
