Issued in 2016, this premium three-coin gold proof set offers a sophisticated tribute to the enduring legacy of the Sovereign. Comprising the £2, Sovereign, and Half Sovereign, each piece is struck in solid 22 carat gold to the Royal Mint's celebrated proof finish, achieved through multiple strikes of hand-prepared dies. The result is a striking contrast between brilliant, mirror-like fields and the delicate, frosted relief that brings every detail of the design to life.

The obverse of each coin features the fifth definitive coinage portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, designed by Jody Clark and introduced to the nation’s coinage in 2015. This elegant portrait captures the Queen with a renewed sense of majesty, reflecting a significant moment in the history of British numismatics. The design is accompanied by the formal royal legend, confirming the status of these coins as official legal tender and treasured pieces of history.

On the reverse, each coin presents the classic Saint George and the dragon, an iconic motif by Benedetto Pistrucci that has defined the Sovereign since 1817. This dramatic scene of heroism, showing the knight and his mount in pursuit of the dragon, is rendered with exceptional clarity and depth across all three denominations. Housed in an official Royal Mint presentation case and accompanied by a numbered certificate of authenticity, this collection provides a harmonious and complete look at one of the world's most famous gold coin series, making it an essential acquisition for any serious collector of British royal coinage.
