The Coronation Sovereign

2023 Gold Sovereign

The 2023 Gold Sovereign is one of significant because it is the first of King Charles III’s reign and was struck in the same year of his coronation. The design itself features the King wearing a crown, subsequent years are unlikely to feature the same crowned design making the 2023 Gold Sovereign one of the unique and special year designs

The 2023 Gold Sovereign is referred to as the Coronation Sovereign and proceeds two special 2022 designs. The 2023 Gold Sovereign returns to the traditional George and dragon design. For investors looking to see what a 2023 Sovereign is worth today the prices on screen are live indicative prices that Auronum is paying for 2023 Gold Sovereign coins

Market Leading Buyback Rates

Auronum benchmarks against other leading bullion companies to ensure our buyback rates are competitive

The coin is struck to 22 carat Gold with the remainder of the alloy being copper which gives the coin its pink appearance

The crowned portrait is likely to hold some premium over time as the 2023 Sovereign will count as a special year design and will be wanted by collectors for years to come for this very reason, however it will likely remain in high demand for date collectors 

This special year Sovereign is a more subtle design than some other well-known special year Sovereigns, for this reason the Coronation Sovereign may not see its premium grow the same way that the 2002 Sovereign saw its premium rise over time
