The 1985 Gold Proof Sovereign Set is a classic of the Queen Elizabeth II era, featuring all four sovereign denominations struck to the Royal Mint’s highest proof standard. Housed in the original Royal Mint presentation case with certificate of authenticity, this set includes the Five Sovereign, Double Sovereign, Full Sovereign and Half Sovereign.

Each coin showcases Benedetto Pistrucci’s timeless St George and the Dragon reverse, paired with Raphael Maklouf’s third definitive portrait of Queen Elizabeth II - a pairing that remained in use until 1997.

This is one of the most recognisable and collectible proof sets of the 1980s, combining vintage appeal with strong secondary market demand.
