In 2022, the passing of Queen Elizabeth II ended her remarkable 70-year reign. This historical event led to her son, Charles III, ascending the throne as the longest-serving heir apparent in British history. Now, King Charles III’s likeness graces the bullion coinage from the Royal Mint. At Provident Metals, you can acquire one of the first 500 2022 British Memorial Gold Sovereign Coins featuring the new King. Order your MS70 coin today.
Highlights:
Each 2022 British Memorial Gold Sovereign will come to you in a protective plastic slab from the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation. The NGC has graded each coin as Mint State 70, indicating a perfect specimen. These coins will display their full, original mint luster with no imperfections. Furthermore, these are designated as DPL (Deep Proof-Like) strikes, showcasing frosted elements and mirrored backgrounds.
Obverse
The obverse of the 2022 British Memorial Sovereign features King Charles III in left-profile relief, without a crown, designed by Martin Jennings. This marks the first time a figure other than Queen Elizabeth II has appeared on a bullion version of the British Gold Sovereign. Inscriptions read MJ, CHARLES III, and DEI.GRA.REX.FID.DEF.
Reverse
The reverse of this 2022 Memorial Gold Sovereign displays the Royal Arms of England, a design by Jody Clark. The Lion of England and the Unicorn of Scotland support a shield topped by a crown, displaying the coats of arms for England, Ireland, and Scotland. Inscriptions include JC, 2022, and DIEU ET MON DROIT.
History
The British Sovereign, dating back to 1817, originated from the Great Recoinage of 1816. Originally a circulation coin, it is now a valuable piece in the bullion market, with proof strikes also available. Similar to the American Eagle Gold Coin, these coins are made with 22-karat gold.
