          Description
          Yellow gold 2026 proof Sovereign from a limited mintage of just 3,000 coins. This makes it one of the lowest-mintage gold proof Sovereigns issued by The Royal Mint and is likely to drive customer demand for this eagerly anticipated release. 2026 Sovereigns are the first for decades to be struck in 22-carat yellow gold, replacing the rose gold alloy that has been used in recent years. On the obverse is Martin Jennings' definitive coinage portrait of King Charles III, paired with the instantly recognisable image of Saint George and the dragon. Created in the early 19th century by Italian artist Benedetto Pistrucci, this classic coinage design connects the 2026 proof Sovereign with the storied history of this legendary British gold coin.

          Portrait Of King Charles III

          This Sovereign features Martin Jennings' definitive uncrowned coinage portrait of King Charles III, used on UK currency since he became King in 2022. This effigy is accompanied by an inscription that reads 'CHARLES III · DEI · GRA · REX · FID · DEF ·'.

          Classic Saint George Design

          Benedetto Pistrucci's instantly recognisable Saint George and the dragon design is displayed on the reverse of this 2026 coin. This 19th-century engraving shows England's patron saint mounted on a rearing horse. The year and the artist's initials are shown below.

          Struck In 22-Carat Yellow Gold

          This 2026 proof coin is one of the first 21st-century Sovereigns to be struck with a yellow gold alloy. Conforming to historic specifications, it's made from 7.98 grams of 22-carat gold and measures 22.05 millimetres from milled edge to milled edge.

          2026 Proof Sovereign Mintage Figures

          Just 3,000 of these proof 'full' Sovereigns have been authorised for release by The Royal Mint, a significantly lower mintage figure than recent Sovereigns issued. Another 2026 proof Sovereign has also been issued with a reverse frosted finish, also with a mintage of 3,000.

          Premium Royal Mint Coin

          This highly collectable piece is supplied in the original glossy wood Royal Mint presentation case, complete with a detailed information booklet and an individually numbered certificate of authenticity.
