2015 Sovereigns

For the first time in over 100 years, there were two designs for the sovereign in one year. The earlier proof coins featured the fourth portrait, by Ian Rank-Broadley, on the obverse, whilst proof sovereigns produced after 2nd March, 2015, featured Jody Clark's fifth portrait of Elizabeth II.

PF-70 Grade

The perfect coin, as minted. Has no trace of wear, handling, scratches or contact with other coins from a (5x) magnification. For more information about NGC grading please see our blog: Coin Grading and Explanation - UK, US, CGS, PCGS NGC.

What is an Ultra Cameo Grade?

This coin has also been authenticated with being in ULTRA CAMEO condition. Meaning that the fields are deeply mirrored and the devices are heavily frosted for bold contrast on both sides of the coin.

Obverse

The obverse of the sovereign features the fifth definitive UK coin portrait of the Queen designed by Royal Mint engraver, Jody Clark. The engraver's initials JC are under the curved trunacted neck. This portrait shows a rather more mature monarch wearing the King George IV State Diadem. The fifth effigy was revealed on 2nd March, 2015.

ELIZABETH II · DEI · GRA · REGINA · FID · DEF ·

Reverse

The iconic St George and Dragon design by Benedetto Pistrucci can be seen on the reverse of the coin. This design had dominated the reverse of the sovereign gold coin since the introduction of the first modern sovereign in 1817. The date and the engraver's initials B.P. are in exergue under the main design.
