These coins are minted from the purest possible 22 carat rose gold alloy
This year marks the 100th anniversary of the last gold sovereign minted in Britain during the Gold Standard era – the last ‘currency’ sovereign ever minted here. During the Gold Standard era, sovereigns were minted in rose gold alloys – but it’s worth noting they were never produced in rose gold as pure as the 2025 commemorative coins on offer now!
A brand new version of the famous St George and the dragon design has been created for these special rose gold sovereigns by Jody Clark, whose portrait of His Majesty King Charles III appears on the obverse side of these coins.
