Each coin recalls the year of Her Majesty's birth — the 1926 Royal Coat of Arms on the reverse
The Coin That Should Never
Have Existed
For over 500 years, Britain has struck sovereigns in 22-carat gold. A 100th sovereign — one-hundredth of a full sovereign — has never existed. Until now.
To mark what would have been the 100th birthday of Queen Elizabeth II, the world's first gold 100th sovereign has been created. Just 5,030 coins — one for every week of her remarkable 96-year life.
Struck in 99.9% pure 24-carat gold to proof quality — the finest standard of striking available — approved by Buckingham Palace, and featuring a reverse design inspired by the coins of her birth year, 1926.
