About Sovereign King Charles (2025)
For over 500 years, the Sovereign coin has symbolized supreme craftsmanship and numismatic significance. As one of the world’s oldest coins still in production, it has rightly earned the title of the “chief coin of the world.” The 2025 edition marks a special chapter in this time-honored coin’s history, as it is the last to be struck in exquisite rose gold. A must-have for collectors who appreciate both tradition and innovation.
The Sovereign 2025 offers not only a piece of history but also exceptional craftsmanship. The obverse side features the iconic design by Benedetto Pistrucci – the legendary battle of St. George against the dragon. For the first time, the reverse will display the official coin portrait of King Charles III, designed by Martin Jennings. This unique combination of artistic tradition and royal history makes the 2025 Sovereign an unforgettable release.
The Sovereign coin was first introduced in 1489 under King Henry VII and has since become a symbol of British minting excellence. Benedetto Pistrucci created the famous St. George and the Dragon design in 1817, which has since become synonymous with the Sovereign coins. Over the centuries, this coin has gained both numismatic and economic significance and is cherished by collectors worldwide. The 2025 edition is particularly notable as the last to be minted in rose gold before future editions revert to the traditional yellow gold.
