The 1990 Gold Proof Double Sovereign is a rare £2 gold proof issue from The Royal Mint, struck in 22 carat gold to the highest proof standard. Sometimes referred to as the two-sovereign coin, it carries Raphael Maklouf’s third portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse, paired with Benedetto Pistrucci’s timeless St George and the Dragon reverse.
This example has been certified by NGC as PF69 Ultra Cameo, just one point from the top grade, confirming its near-perfect condition and strong cameo contrast. Proof double sovereigns of this era are limited in number and highly collectible, particularly when preserved in such outstanding quality.
