In 2025, the 'chief coin of the world', The Sovereign, returns again, this time marking one of the few changes to the traditional St George & Dragon design to ever occur - Jean Baptiste Merlen’s Royal Arms, that first appeared 200 years ago in 1825. Known colloquially as the Shield Sovereign, this design has been reproduced by The Royal Mint using modern minting techniques and will no doubt prove extremely attractive to sovereign collectors worldwide.
As history tells us, whenever The Royal Mint changes The Sovereign design for a year, demand goes through the roof. And, with this beautiful tribute to the well-loved Shield, you'd have to be crazy not to snap one up immediately.
Even more amazing, this year's sovereign range is the last to be struck from 22 carat RED gold, as is tradition. 2026's coin will see a whole new gold alloy, making these coins special in an entirely different way!
A coin that will elevate any coin collection, the 2025 Proof Gold Sovereign is available now for Pre-Order with shipping expected to commence at the end of November 2024.
