Maundy Gold Coins
| Browse our range of British Maundy Gold Coins featuring historic Royal Maundy coinage alongside the extremely rare 2002 Golden Jubilee Maundy gold proof issues. The Royal Maundy ceremony is one of the oldest surviving traditions of the British monarchy, in which the reigning sovereign distributes specially struck coins to elderly recipients as a symbolic act of charity. The traditional Maundy coins, struck annually by The Royal Mint since the reign of Charles II, consist of small silver denominations representing the monarch’s age in pence. These coins—1d, 2d, 3d and 4d—are presented during the Maundy Thursday service held each year in different cathedrals across the United Kingdom. In 2002, to mark the Golden Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II, The Royal Mint issued an exceptionally rare and highly limited Maundy gold proof set struck in solid 22 carat gold. This one-year issue represents one of the most unusual and sought-after modern interpretations of the historic Maundy tradition. British Maundy gold coins are extremely scarce and highly desirable due to their unique combination of religious heritage, royal ceremony and modern Royal Mint craftsmanship. Graded examples by PCGS and NGC are especially prized by collectors. Whether you are searching for historic Royal Maundy silver issues or the rare Golden Jubilee Maundy gold proof set, this category offers a unique intersection of tradition and modern royal numismatics.
