The 2022 Gold Proof Memorial Half Sovereign is a landmark release in British numismatics, issued to honour the extraordinary life and 70-year reign of Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. This coin is historically significant as it introduces the first definitive coinage portrait of a new monarch to the Sovereign series since 1952.

The Debut Portrait of HM King Charles III

The obverse features the first official coinage portrait of HM King Charles III by renowned British sculptor Martin Jennings. In keeping with a tradition dating back to the 17th century, the King faces left—the opposite direction to Queen Elizabeth II. This portrait is "uncrowned," as is customary for male monarchs on the nation’s coinage.

Exclusive Memorial Royal Arms Reverse

For this special memorial issue, the traditional St George and the Dragon design was replaced with a masterful interpretation of the Royal Arms by designer Jody Clark. This intricate reverse serves as a dignified tribute and was used only for the 2022 Memorial Sovereign collection.

Perfect PF70 Ultra Cameo Grade

This specimen has been certified PF70 Ultra Cameo by NGC, the highest possible grade. It represents a flawless strike with no post-production imperfections visible under 5x magnification. The "Ultra Cameo" designation indicates the exceptional contrast between the frosted relief and the deep, mirror-polished fields.

Can I verify the coin's grade?

Yes. Every NGC-certified coin has a unique certification number visible on the slab label. You can verify the grade, coin details and population data at NGCcoin.uk using the cert number shown.

What is the population or top pop figure?

The NGC census records how many examples of each coin have been graded at each level. A Top Pop coin means no other example has achieved a higher grade — making it the finest certified specimen in existence for that issue.

Do you offer part exchange?


Yes. We accept all proof coins and graded coins in part exchange, including NGC and PCGS certified coins, boxed gold and silver proofs, and proof sets.
