2025 Gold Proof Sovereign with Box & Coa

The Sovereign 2025 pays tribute to the coin’s rich history and Jean Baptiste Merlen’s Royal Arms design that first appeared on The Sovereign 200 years ago. Faithfully remastered using state-of-the-art technology, this coin features Merlen’s Royal Arms design on the reverse and the official coinage portrait of His Majesty King Charles III, designed by Martin Jennings, on the obverse, marking the first time these designs have appeared together on The Sovereign. This coin is also noteworthy as it is the last edition of The Sovereign to be struck in rose gold at The Royal Mint. Each coin also comes with an informative booklet detailing the history of both The Sovereign and Merlen’s design.
