2022 Sovereign Coins

Explore our collection of 2022 Sovereign Coins, issued during one of the most remarkable years in modern British history. Produced by The Royal Mint, the 2022 Sovereign range commemorates Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee, celebrating 70 years on the throne—the first British monarch ever to reach this milestone. The year also saw the release of special memorial issues following the accession of King Charles III, making 2022 an exceptional chapter in the Sovereign’s story.

Celebrating the Platinum Jubilee

To honour the Platinum Jubilee, the traditional St George and the Dragon reverse was replaced on many 2022 issues with a specially commissioned Royal Arms design by heraldic artist Timothy Noad. This rare departure from the classic Sovereign design makes the 2022 coins instantly recognisable and highly collectible.

Memorial Issues of 2022

Following the death of Queen Elizabeth II in September 2022, The Royal Mint also released 2022 Memorial Sovereigns featuring the first coinage portrait of King Charles III alongside a distinctive Royal Arms reverse. These coins mark the beginning of the Carolean era and stand apart from the earlier Platinum Jubilee releases.

Available Denominations and Formats

The 2022 Sovereign collection includes a wide variety of formats for collectors and investors, including:

• Quarter Sovereign
• Half Sovereign
• Full Sovereign
• Double Sovereign
• Five Sovereign Piece
• Gold Bullion editions
• Gold Proof editions
• Brilliant Uncirculated editions
• Multi-coin presentation sets

Many of these releases were produced in limited numbers and presented in official Royal Mint packaging.
