SOLD OUT AT THE MINT: UK 2026 QEII Centenary Struck on the Day Gold Sovereign
To commemorate the 100th anniversary of the birth of Queen Elizabeth II, The Royal Mint has issued a prestigious Gold Struck on the Day Sovereign, struck on 21 April 2026 - the exact date of her birth centenary.
Issued in 22 carat gold, this remarkable coin captures a single, unrepeatable moment in British royal history.
With a limited edition of just 1,000 coins worldwide, it stands among the smallest modern UK Sovereign mintages, making it highly sought-after by collectors.
What's more, it is already unavailable at The Royal Mint.
The reverse features Benedetto Pistrucci’s iconic St George and the Dragon, while the obverse bears Martin Jennings’ portrait of King Charles III. A special privy mark inspired by the Lily Font at Buckingham Palace - where Queen Elizabeth II was christened - adds a meaningful tribute to her life and legacy.
Struck on a single historic day, no more can ever be produced, securing its place as a lasting centenary issue.
