The 2026 Gold Proof Quarter Sovereign PF70 Ultra Cameo is a standout modern sovereign issue, marking the return to the traditional yellow gold appearance that many collectors have long preferred.
Struck in 22 carat gold by The Royal Mint, this quarter sovereign restores the warmer, richer yellow gold tone historically associated with classic proof sovereigns. This return has been widely welcomed, bringing the visual character of modern proofs back in line with earlier traditional issues.
This example has been graded PF70 Ultra Cameo by NGC, the highest grade achievable. PF70 confirms a flawless coin under magnification, with crisp frosted detail and deep mirrored fields, representing the finest quality available for this issue.
The reverse features Benedetto Pistrucci’s iconic St George and the Dragon design, while the obverse bears the definitive portrait of King Charles III, placing this coin firmly within the modern sovereign era and making it an important addition to graded 2026 proof sets.
