The English Sovereign, also known as the Gold Sovereign, is a historic coin that originated in England in 1489 during the reign of King Henry VII. It was initially introduced as a larger gold coin called the “Double Ryal” but was later downsized and became known as the Sovereign. The coin gained prominence and became the flagship coin of the Tudor dynasty.

The modern Great Britain Sovereign coins are the contemporary versions of the English Sovereign, minted by the Royal Mint. These coins continue the legacy of the historic Sovereign and are highly regarded for their craftsmanship, quality, and investment value.

King Charles III features on the obverse of each coin in the 2023 Great Britain Gold Coronation of King Charles III Sovereign 5-Coin Set. This left-profile relief is the first of his reign and was created by Martin Jennings. Additionally, this is the first-ever crowned portrait of King Charles III and is unique for his coronation coinage.
