The Royal Mint is honoring the legacy of Queen Elizabeth II while celebrating the start of a new era in Sovereign coining. The release of Memorial Sovereigns by the Royal Mint marks the end of Her Late Majesty’s reign and introduces the first-ever King Charles III effigy on the coins. Right now, 2022 Proof British Gold Memorial Piedfort Sovereign Coins are available to purchase online at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Each of the 2022 Proof British Gold Memorial Piedfort Sovereign Coins available here comes with individual packaging. The coins are housed in presentation boxes from the Royal Mint and come with a Certificate of Authenticity. These proof coins have frosted designs and mirrored fields.
Piedfort bullion coins are based on historic coins from the Middle Ages. A piedfort coin is, simply put, a thicker blank. In this case, these Piedfort Sovereigns have the same diameter as a traditional Sovereign, but are nearly twice as thick.
King Charles III is on the obverse of 2022 Proof British Memorial Piedfort Sovereign Coins. This design shows the new King of England in left-profile relief without a crown. Martin Jennings created this first-ever portrait of Charles III for the Royal Mint in late 2022.
The Royal Arms features on the reverse side of the 2022 Proof Gold Memorial Piedfort Sovereign Coin. This image was created by Jody Clark and shows the shield with the coat of arms of the United Kingdom that is supported by the Lion of England and the Unicorn of Scotland.
