2025 Royal Arms Gold Proof Quarter Sovereign – NGC PF69 Ultra Cameo
This 2025 Quarter Sovereign carries a faithfully remastered version of Jean Baptiste Merlen's ornate Royal Arms shield design, first used on the 1825 Sovereign and now revived 200 years on. The reverse retains its original Latin legend, "ARMA GEORGII IV BRITANNIARUM REGIS", preserved as part of the remastering process, and marks the first time Merlen's historic design has appeared alongside a King's portrait on The Sovereign.
The obverse carries Martin Jennings' official coinage portrait of His Majesty King Charles III. This coin is also part of the final year of Sovereigns struck in The Royal Mint's distinctive rose gold alloy, with the range returning to traditional yellow gold from 2026 onward.
Graded NGC PF69 Ultra Cameo, this coin offers the same historic 200th-anniversary design and final-year rose gold finish as our top-graded PF70 example, at a more accessible price point.
Coin Highlights
- Remastered 1825 Royal Arms design by Jean Baptiste Merlen, marking the 200th anniversary of the original Sovereign
- Part of the final year of Sovereigns struck in rose gold before the return to yellow gold in 2026
- Obverse: Martin Jennings' official coinage portrait of King Charles III
- Struck in 22 carat gold to proof finish, available only within The Royal Mint's 2025 multi-coin Sovereign proof sets

- Graded NGC PF69 Ultra Cameo — an excellent, more accessible grade below our PF70 listing
- Encapsulated in a tamper-evident NGC holder for authenticity and protection

Why This Coin Stands Out
With a mintage of only 1,535 and available exclusively within Sovereign proof sets, this Quarter Sovereign is already a scarce piece before grading is considered. A PF69 grade delivers the same historic 200th-anniversary design and final rose gold finish as a top-graded example, making it a strong value entry point into the 2025 Royal Arms range.
