-The '''Unite''' was the second [[England|English]] [[gold coin]] with a value of '''twenty shillings or one pound''' produced during the reign of King [[James I of England|James I]]. It was named after the legends on the [[coin]] indicating the king's intention of uniting his two kingdoms of [[England]] and [[Scotland]].<ref name="Klutz">{{cite book |title= Münznamen und ihre Herkunft |last= Klütz  |first= Konrad |authorlink= |coauthors= |year=2004 |publisher= moneytrend Verlag|location=Vienna  |isbn=3-9501620-3-8 |pages= p. 282}} </ref> <ref name="Grueber">Herbert Grueber: ''Handbook of the Coins of Great Britain and Ireland in the British Museum'', Londra 1899.  p.

The coin was produced during James I's second coinage (1604-1619), and it was replaced in the third coinage by the [[English coin Laurel|Laurel]] worth twenty shillings. All the coins were produced at the [[Tower Mint]] in [[London]].

-Several [[Bust (sculpture)|bust]]s of the king were used for this [[Denomination (currency)|denomination]], who is shown looking to the [[Relative direction|right]] of the coin and is holding the [[Sovereign's Orb|orb]] and [[sceptre]]; the style of the kings' [[beard]] varies during the issue. The legend on the obverse reads <small>IACOBUS D G MA BRI FRA ET HI REX</small> (Iacobus Deo Gratia Magnae Britanniae Franciae et Hiberniae Rex)-- ''James by the grace of [[God]] King of [[Great Britain]] [[France]] and [[Ireland]]''. The reverse shows a crowned [[shield]] which shows the arms of the four countries separating the letters <small>IR</small> -- ''Iacobus Rex'', King James, and the legend <small>FACIAM EOS IN GENTEM UNAM</small> -- ''I will make them one nation''<ref name="Klutz"/>.

-Numerous issues of gold unites valued at twenty shillings were produced at the [[Tower Mint]] throughout the reign of King [[Charles I of England|Charles I]] (1625-1649), both when the mint was under the kings' control and under [[Parliament of England|Parliament]]s' control. They depict the crowned bust of the king on the [[obverse]], looking [[Relative direction|left]], with the value "[[20 (number)|XX]]" appearing behind the kings' head, and the legend <small>CAROLUS D G MAG BR FR ET HI REX</small> -- ''Charles by the grace of God King of Great Britain France and Ireland''. The reverse shows a [[Crown (headgear)|crown]] over a [[shield]] bearing the [[Coat of arms of the United Kingdom|royal arms]] and the legend <small>FLORENT CONCORDIA REGNA</small> -- ''Through concord kingdoms flourish''. During the [[English Civil War|Civil War]], provincial mints produced very rare unites to pay the troops, at [[Chester]], [[Oxford]], [[Bristol]], [[Exeter]], [[Worcester]] and [[Shrewsbury]] -- some of these unites are unique coins.

-Gold unites were also issued during the hammered phase of King [[Charles II of England|Charles II]] (i.e. 1660-62), showing a left-facing bust of the king wearing a [[Laurel wreath|laurel]] and the legend <small>CAROLUS II D G MAG BRIT FRAN ET HIB REX</small> -- there were two issues, the second indicating the value "XX" behind the kings' [[head]]. The reverse shows a [[Crown (headgear)|crown]] over the [[shield]] with the [[Coat of arms of the United Kingdom|royal arms]] dividing the letters "CR" and the legend <small>FLORENT CONCORDIA REGNA</small>. The gold unite was replaced by the milled gold [[British coin Guinea|Guinea]] in 1663, and a twenty shilling coin did not reappear until the [[gold sovereign|Sovereign]] of 1817.
