2026 Great Britain Gold Sovereign Proof Coin (Yellow Gold)


0.2354 troy oz .9167 2026 Proof

The 2026 Gold Sovereign represents a significant moment in the history of British numismatics, signaling a return to traditional yellow gold after a period of rose gold releases. This issue carries a deep historical connection, celebrating exactly 500 years since 22-carat gold was first established as the official purity standard for this legendary coin. Struck in a proof finish, each coin contains 0.2354 troy ounces of gold, combining centuries of tradition with modern minting technology. On the obverse, the coin displays the official coinage portrait of His Majesty King Charles III. The reverse features the instantly recognizable depiction of St. George slaying the dragon, a masterpiece created by Benedetto Pistrucci. To safeguard the integrity of this limited release of 3,000 pieces, the coin incorporates advanced security details, including a latent image, micro-text, and a half-tone pattern.
