The 2025 Gold Proof Sovereign is a landmark release from The Royal Mint, marking several historic moments in one exquisite coin. Struck in 22-carat rose gold to the highest proof standard, this sovereign features a remastered Royal Arms reverse by Jean Baptiste Merlen, honouring the 200th anniversary of its original use on the 1825 Sovereign.

As the final year the sovereign will be struck in the distinctive rose gold alloy—a tone introduced in 2022 for the reign of King Charles III—this coin represents both an end of an era and a must-have collector’s piece.
