The 2024 King's Birthday Carolean Gold Double Sovereign

The First Sovereigns Minted from 100% Recycled Gold!

22nd October 2024

Introducing the 2024 King’s Birthday Carolean Gold Sovereign Series

Celebrate King Charles III’s 76th birthday with a special edition of gold sovereigns which honour his deep commitment to the environment. This unique coin, known as “Carolean Gold,” is the first in over 200 years of sovereign history to be minted entirely from 100% recycled gold, making it a remarkable tribute to the King’s lifelong advocacy for sustainability.

Like almost every sovereign since 1817, these coins are crafted from 22-carat gold. However, instead of newly mined gold, they are made from gold recovered from existing items like jewellery and coins. This process preserves the quality and purity of the gold while maintaining a far lower carbon footprint, aligning with the King’s dedication to protecting the planet. The design draws inspiration from the historic ‘Carolus’ coins of King Charles I, further connecting centuries of royal tradition.

100 years of Flying Scotsman number 4472

Flying Scotsman is the most famous steam locomotive in the world. This icon of British engineering was built at the Doncaster Works and delivered into service in 1923. However, its true fame began in 1924 when it was put on display at the British Empire Exhibition and was given the number 4472 and, importantly, the name ‘Flying Scotsman’.

This world-first coin has been occasioned by the 100th anniversary of the 1924 naming of Flying Scotsman.  This is also when it went on public display in the British Empire Exhibition in Wembley, where millions of visitors came to marvel at this handsome feat of engineering. Imagine getting up close to 100 tonnes of gleaming steel – it must have been an impressive sight!

Struck in 22 carat gold and with the design overlaid in colour, this new one-eighth sovereign encapsulates the historical importance of Flying Scotsman and preserves it for generations to come.

Valor and Victory: The D-Day Coin That Honours British Bravery

Eight decades ago, the tides of history were turned on the 6th of June, 1944, known forever as ‘D-Day.’ On this monumental day, Allied forces executed the largest amphibious invasion in history, storming the beaches of Normandy to carve a path to freedom through Western Europe, ultimately leading to the downfall of Nazi occupation and the end of World War II in Europe.

To commemorate the 80th anniversary of this pivotal event, a distinguished gold one-eighth sovereign has been minted at the Royal Dutch Mint in the Netherlands, a nation that tasted freedom in the wake of these courageous efforts. This groundbreaking issue marks the first time a sovereign coin has been minted outside of the British Isles and in one of the liberated European nations.

This new one-eighth sovereign is not only a tribute to the daring and sacrifice of the Allied forces but also a piece of history, minted right in the heart of liberated Europe. It features two unique mintmarks of the Royal Dutch Mint and embodies a collaboration that commemorates liberation and unity. Struck in solid gold, this coin captures the essence of D-Day with iconic symbols Britannia and Liberty standing together, reflecting the enduring alliance and the shared fight for freedom.

A limited mintage of 6,999 pieces ensures its exclusivity. Owning this coin offers not just a piece of numismatic prestige but also an homage to the enduring legacy of D-Day, making it a must-have for collectors and history enthusiasts alike. This coin is not just a collector’s item but a tribute to the spirit of liberation and a reminder of the price of peace.

The 2023 King Charles III Platinum Maundy Set

An exciting new set has just been announced to mark King Charles III’s Coronation year

11th March 2024

Introducing a new special set – The 2023 King Charles III Platinum Maundy Set:  The first Platinum Maundy Set produced in King Charles III’s reign.

The first platinum Maundy Set in the reign of King Charles III has just been produced and, dated 2023, it marks the year of his Coronation. This is an important ‘first’ and there is no way of knowing when, or indeed if, a platinum Maundy Set will ever again be produced in this monarch’s reign. (In the 70 year reign of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, there was only one occasion on which a platinum Maundy Set was made available).

Maundy coins are deeply historic: they have been produced for use of the monarch at the ceremony on Maundy Thursday (just before Easter) as gifts to deserving recipients, and only rarely are they made available to people outside this ceremony.

You can view the 2023 King Charles III Platinum Maundy Set  HERE.

Many iterations of this familiar motif have appeared over time, but none so innovative as a new design by celebrated coin artist Jody Clark, who has taken a bold new approach to mark a significant milestone in the reign of King Charles III.

A new series of gold sovereigns has just been announced to celebrate the 200th Anniversary of the Double Sovereign

3rd January 2024

Introducing a new special series – The 2023 Double Sovereign 200th Anniversary Gold Sovereign Range: a special series of celebration sovereigns.

First issued in 1823, the double sovereign featured the Classical Depiction of St George and the dragon created by a master of coin design, Benedetto Pistrucci. His design has become known the world over, and is today synonymous with the gold sovereign itself.  To tie in with the original of 1823, the design is that same tale of St George – but in a new 2023 re-imagining of it by a modern day master of design, Jody Clark.

The new St George image maintains an historic tradition and is by the modern-day master of coin design, Jody Clark. His expertise has succeeded in creating a powerful portrayal of the time-honoured battle between good and evil. The new design is accompanied by the year-date of the first double sovereign in Roman numerals ‘‘MDCCCXXIII’, as a tribute to the original coin of 1823.

Both the portrait of the king on the obverse side, and St George on the reverse side, are by Jody Clark.

The 2023 Prince and Princess of Wales Gold Prestige Sovereign Set

A new world-first series of gold sovereigns have just been announced to celebrate the new Prince and Princess of Wales

30th October 2023

Introducing a new special series – The 2023 Prince and Princess of Wales Gold Sovereign Range: for the first time in over 200 years of gold sovereign history, coins have been minted from 22 carat gold that includes a trace amount of rare Welsh gold in the mixture.

The one-eighth sovereign, sovereign and double sovereigns are special as they are the first gold coins to depict both the new Prince, and Princess of Wales. Catherine is only the second Princess of Wales in history to be celebrated on a gold sovereign coin, the first being William’s mother, Diana, some years ago.

The half sovereign and quarter sovereign are special too as they are in tribute only to Prince William. This creates two very special coins as with his father King Charles III on the other side they are the first of their kind ever to depict a reigning British king and his hier on either side of the same coin

In a rare occurrence, both sides of the coins have been designed by the same artist, Jody Clark, whose masterful hand has perfectly captured their likenesses.

The 2023 King Charles III 75th Birthday Gold Prestige Sovereign Proof Set

A new world-first series of gold sovereigns have just been announced to celebrate the 75th birthday of King Charles III!

30th October 2023

As His Majesty’s 75th birthday approaches, a series of limited edition gold sovereign coins has been released in tribute to this milestone in his lifetime.; Introducing The 2023 King Charles III 75th Birthday Gold Sovereign Range.

This is the first time that the birthday of a reigning British king has been celebrated with the minting of commemorative gold sovereign coins. It is also our new king’s first milestone birthday as monarch. That it is his 75th birthday underlines the fact that he is the oldest British monarch ever to accede the throne. Prior to this, we need to reach back through the centuries to King William IV who became king in 1830 at the age of 64.

Each coin in this series features the same design: namely, a portrait of King Charles III, wearing the St Edward’s crown and resplendent in his coronation robes, holding the orb in one hand and the sceptre in another. He is shown in half-length profile, and this depiction echoes that of his predecessor and namesake, King Charles I, who was similarly portrayed on gold coins of his reign which became known as the ‘Carolus’ (the Latin derivation of Charles).

The 2023 Lord Nelson Tribute Gold Prestige Sovereign Proof Set

An exciting new series of gold sovereigns have just been announced to mark the 225th anniversary of Lord Nelson’s victory at the Battle of the Nile!

3rd October 2023

Lord Nelson won “the most overwhelming victory in the age of sail” and now it is celebrated in a way unseen in his own lifetime; Introducing The 2023 Lord Nelson Tribute Gold Sovereign Range.

These coins mark the 225th anniversary of Nelson’s victory at the Battle of the Nile. This success against the French led ultimately to the most famous naval engagement of Nelson’s career: the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. Although Lord Nelson’s successes were rewarded and celebrated at the time, surprisingly, no commemorative coins were produced: now, in this anniversary year, these limited edition gold sovereigns correct this historical oversight.

When correctly arranged, the four coins (one-eighth, quarter, half and full) featured in the Prestige Set form a side view of HMS Victory, Nelson’s famous flagship at the Battle of Trafalgar. The sale of every coin in this new series will also benefit SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity.

Each coin in this set features one of the priceless treasures of Tutankhamun’s tomb, surrounded by deep black enamel, to simulate it emerging from the dark. This is the first time ever that gold sovereign coins have featured a selectively enamelled design.

The glossy finish of the black enamel is semi-transparent, enabling you to also see the etched hieroglyphs in the background. These are taken from an inscription on the rear of Tutankhamun’s mask, which is in turn from the Ancient Egyptian ‘Book of the Dead’. Encircling each treasure are Howard Carter’s own words of discovery.

The commemorative gold sovereigns in this set are the last of their kind to feature Elizabeth II on the obverse side, the decision to sanction them for production having already been made prior to her death.

The 2022 Queen Elizabeth II Tribute Gold Prestige Sovereign Proof Set

A special tribute to the life of service and devotion of Queen Elizabeth II

20th September 2022

Introducing a special tribute to the life of service and devotion of Queen Elizabeth II; The 2022 Queen Elizabeth II Tribute Gold Sovereign Range.

Both sides of the coins in this range have been designed by Jody Clark, designer of the Fifth (and final) portrait of Her Late Majesty that appears on Britain’s current coinage

On the reverse, the Imperial State Crown rests upon a rose, thistle, shamrock and leek. The choice of this crown is not accidental: it was worn by Queen Elizabeth II at her coronation, and to the State Opening of Parliament in most years. The obverse of these coins is significant too. Jody Clark has created a portrait of The Queen especially for these tribute sovereigns. It depicts Her Late Majesty in the tiara and necklace of her wedding day, and wearing a brooch gifted to her by her late husband HRH Prince Philip.

If the reverse design is a celebration of her role as monarch, this unique portrait is a tribute to her personal life as a wife, mother and grandmother. This portrait will only ever be used on this series of tribute sovereigns.

The 2020 VE-Day 75th Anniversary Gold Quarter Sovereign

A new world first range has been released with our unique SELL-OUT GUARANTEE!

31st March 2020

To celebrate the 75th Anniversary of VE Day – the first sovereign series with a white rhodium-platinum finish, celebrating the peace brought by VE Day, has been announced.  Each of the sovereign coins is the first to be finished with rhodium-platinum, creating a white appearance symbolic of the peace of VE Day.   These new sovereign coins feature designs that capture the key moments of VE Day, from Churchill’s announcement of Germany’s surrender to scenes of partying in the streets.

That’s not all!  The limits of each of these sovereigns are subject to our new SELL OUT GUARANTEE. What this means is that availability of these coins will end on 31st August 2020. At that time, any coins that are unsold will be melted down and verified to that effect.

At that point, a new certificate will issued to owners stating the final mintage which may be lower, or possibly considerably lower.   If the full mintage is sold, then this means the coins sold out entirely to keen customers, and if not you may have secured for yourself a low mintage rarity.

Either way, there will be little or no surplus of these coins on the secondary market and so the coin you own will be a rarity!
