The standard proof pairs frosted design elements with mirror-like fields; the reverse frosted proof turns that contrast around, with frosted fields and a mirrored design. It's a set that rewards being held in the hand and tilted under the light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eJust 100 Sets, Mint Marque Only\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith only 100 sets issued, this is a far smaller edition than the standalone reverse frosted Sovereign and a tiny fraction of the standard annual proof issue. Mint Marque releases are reserved for customers with an established purchasing history at The Royal Mint, so they rarely reach the open market, and complete sets in original presentation even less so.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth coins are struck in 22 carat yellow gold, continuing the return to the Sovereign's traditional alloy introduced in 2026. The obverse carries Martin Jennings' definitive portrait of King Charles III; the reverse is Benedetto Pistrucci's St George and the Dragon, the design that has defined the Sovereign since 1817.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSupplied in original Royal Mint presentation packaging with certificate of authenticity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications (each coin)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eYear\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2027\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMint\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThe Royal Mint, Llantrisant\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCoin\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFull Sovereign (x2)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eComposition\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e22 carat yellow gold (916.7)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7.98 grams (7.32g fine gold)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDiameter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e22.05 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFinishes\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOne Reverse Frosted Proof, one Proof\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eObverse\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMartin Jennings (King Charles III)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eReverse\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBenedetto Pistrucci (St George and the Dragon)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eLimited edition\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100 sets\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eIssue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMint Marque exclusive\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePresentation\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBoxed with certificate of authenticity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the difference between the two coins?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDesign, weight and size are identical.
