The 2025 Gold Half Sovereign Coin is struck by The Royal Mint in 22-carat gold as part of the British Sovereign family. This classic fractional companion to the full Sovereign has 0.128 troy oz gross weight and around 0.1176 troy oz of fine gold, giving it a clear place within the wider Quarter, Half, Full, Double and Five-Sovereign range.
The obverse carries the monarch portrait used for the year of issue, while the reverse features a special reverse or commemorative treatment linked to the issue year. The 2025 coin is part of the early King Charles III era, an important transition period for modern British gold coinage, which helps place it within the changing portrait and design history of modern Royal Mint gold coinage.
The 2025 Royal Arms Bicentenary issue highlights the historic relationship between the Sovereign family and Royal Mint heraldic design, giving the date additional collector appeal.
