Sure to be sought after the world over, we are delighted to have snared an allocation of the Royal Mint’s 2025 Shield Gold Half Sovereign Proof!
An important chapter in the Half Sovereign story, this superb 22-carat gold coin is notable for the presence of the world-famous Shield design created by Royal Mint engraver Jean Baptiste Merlen. Bearing a crowned shield graced with Britain’s Ensigns Armorial (Royal Arms), and hosting a smaller crowned shield carrying the Arms of Hanover, this design was unveiled 200 years ago, on the 1825 gold coinage of King George IV.
Reinvigorating this iconic design, Merlen’s Shield is truly breathtaking when struck to the Royal Mint’s finest Proof quality. Also distinguished by the noble features of King Charles III, as captured by Martin Jennings, the 2025 Shield Gold Half Sovereign Proof is exclusive as it is eye-catching. The limited edition is a mere 1,500 coins!
With so few available around the globe, and Downies able to secure only a tiny allocation, you must not delay your order. Click add to cart now!
