2026 Gold Proof Five Pounds Sovereign (£5) Yellow Gold George And Dragon NGC Graded PF70 Ultra Cameo

Maximum Mintage: 500 Weight: 39.94 grams x 22 carat gold. Variety: Proof Following the end of the rose gold era of The Sovereign in 2025, 2026 sees a return to tradition with an exquisite range of yellow gold. The obverse of the coin displays the first definitive portrait of King Charles III, which shows his bare (uncrowned) head facing left. Below the neck truncation in tiny letters, the artist's initials MJ (for Martin Jennings). Around, the monarch's legend: CHARLES III · DEI · GRA · REX · FID · DEF ·. Translated from Latin, the legend means: Charles the Third, by the Grace of God, King, Defender of the Faith. The reverse depicts, within a beaded border, an illustration of the legend of St George as the slayer of the dragon. St George is on horseback, advancing to right, wearing a helmet and chlamys (cape, or cloak) fastened in front by a fibula, and holding a sword. His left hand clutches the rein of the horse's bridle, and he does not wear armour, other than on his lower legs and feet, with his toes bare. The saint's horse appears to be half attacking, half shrinking from the dragon, which lies wounded by George's spear and in the throes of death. The point of a spear is broken off in the dragon’s side; the shaft lays on the ground behind the horse. In exergue, the date: 2026. In the left field of the exergue, the designer's surname PISTRUCCI. (for Benedetto Pistrucci). All postage including overseas shipping is fully insured.  Payment within 24 hours please.
