Aha I searched a bit and it’s the “portrait through the years” set. It’s quite nice actually. 😀

I agree, but just don't remember ever seeing it before, which is weird!

Me neither. That’s just so weird.

Any ideas as to whether the Sovereign release or Great Engravers release will happen first?

Most likely Sovereign since the RM already has a registration page online for a couple weeks now.

I know what you mean, but don't forget that the sovereign has always been a pound coin! 

I wonder if Brett Chamberlain has tried spending any? 😎

Yeah, on this occasion Tesco were content to accept 45 2020 Sovereigns for the £44.50 petrol bill and even offered him a nice new 50p straight from the bag.

Yes, but they cocked up, and gave him a Kew Gardens! 😎

No matter which 1 comes first, need to work super hard in Nov and Dec, as both shall come before turn of the year.

The Sovereign release seems to be around the middle of November, as that is the embargo time the Mint have set. I have seen the design today, and it is very close to those put forward on here, but I will not say anymore. It looks like prices will be very similar to recent years so no massive price hikes.

My understanding but not confirmed as yet is that we are awaiting the Great Engravers coin this month, so before the sovereign.

So any idea roughly what the 2022 sov will cost?

I can say that the 2021 Proof Sovereign was £585 😉

You don’t sound overwhelmed.

Is that because you’re being cautious, or because the design is just that basic?

Secretly I'm hoping it looks like that nuked 1917 sovereign on the other thread. They wouldn't be expecting that.

Just hit on a possible variation on the Royal Coat of Arms

Anybody recognise it?

 

The Chinese Back Street Mint are watching this post with great interest and have already roughed out some Sovereign dies with this shield design probably due for release on Alibaba mid November 😂 🤣

I will share any info I get, as soon as I get it.

I think the 2022 design will be a hit but  in the long run I can’t see it being that special.       With the royal mint now being run for profit rather than to just mint coins can see this happening more and more.    Look at all the different privy coins produced in last 5 years I can see that they will produce a ‘one off’ design every few years 

[Chrisplym]

I would agree if it wasn’t for the Queen’s age and length of service.

I really hope they shrink her head. That effigy is too big in my opinion. Have her in a jubilee crown and make it a shoulders up design instead of the decapitated look JC gave her...

A little more information on the Platinum Jubilee sovereign and a little update on the Great Engravers coin.

The release date is in November - The design is based on my new updated concept image, slightly reworked by Timothy Noad. I am not aware of any change to the obverse portrait. These images are as close as I can post and come from the 2008 pound coin.

(I have heard Great Engravers now due early December)

I cannot confirm that, but I do know other Platinum Jubilee coins will follow early in the new year.
