Struck in 2007, this Elizabeth II Gold Proof Sovereign commemorates a remarkable year in the reign of Her Majesty The Queen. In December 2007, Queen Elizabeth II became the oldest British monarch, surpassing the age reached by her great-great-grandmother, Queen Victoria. It is a meaningful date in the modern story of the monarchy and a memorable year for the Sovereign series.

The obverse features the fourth definitive coinage portrait of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley FRBS. Depicting Her Majesty wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara, the portrait is celebrated for its dignity and realism. Introduced in 1998, it was used on Sovereigns until 2008, making the 2007 issue one of the final dates to carry this distinguished effigy.

The reverse bears Benedetto Pistrucci’s timeless design of St George and the dragon. First introduced on the Sovereign in 1817, this enduring image of courage and triumph has become synonymous with Britain’s most famous gold coin. The 2007 date appears in the exergue beneath the design, accompanied by Pistrucci’s initials.

Struck in 22 carat gold to exacting Proof standard, this Sovereign has polished fields and frosted design details that bring each element into sharp focus. It weighs 7.98g and measures 22.05mm in diameter, following the traditional specification that has defined the modern full Sovereign.

For collectors, the 2007 Gold Proof Sovereign combines a significant royal milestone with one of the last appearances of Ian Rank-Broadley’s fourth portrait on the series. It is an elegant keepsake of a landmark year, uniting royal history, classic design and the craftsmanship of The Royal Mint.
