A Legacy of British Excellence

First introduced during the reign of Henry VII in 1489, The Sovereign has evolved into one of the world's most recognisable gold coins.

Its modern history is closely associated with Benedetto Pistrucci's celebrated depiction of St George slaying the dragon, a design that has become synonymous with British gold coinage.

The Proof editions celebrate this remarkable heritage through carefully struck designs and beautifully contrasting finishes.

The Return of Traditional Yellow Gold

Following The Royal Mint's return to traditional yellow gold for the 2026 Sovereign, the 2027 collection continues this historic chapter in the coin's development.

Combining centuries of tradition with modern minting craftsmanship, the 2027 Sovereign Proof Collection offers an opportunity to own a piece of British numismatic history.
