Collectable 2002 gold proof four-coin Golden Jubilee Sovereign set from The Royal Mint. In 2002, the nation celebrated the 50th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II's accession to the throne. This important national occasion was marked by the UK's national mint with a range of commemorative coins, as well as a one-year-only variant Sovereign reverse, designed by Timothy Noad. His Victorian-inspired shield of arms design appears on all four coins in this premium collectors' set, which includes a 2002-dated Quintuple Sovereign, Double Sovereign, 'full' Sovereign and Half Sovereign. 3,000 of these 4-coin sets were issued in 2002, and this pre-owned example is supplied in the original case with a numbered certificate.

2002 Golden Jubilee four-coin Sovereign sets feature the full range of Sovereigns issued in this year, including:
2002 Sovereigns utilised Ian Rank-Broadley's distinguished fourth coinage portrait of Queen Elizabeth II for their obverse, paired with an abbreviated Latin legend that reads 'ELIZABETH · II · DEI · GRA REGINA · FID · DEF ·'.
Timothy Noad designed the one-year-only reverse used across the four Sovereigns in this set. Inspired by historic 19th-century Sovereigns, his design features a crowned shield of arms, surrounded by a wreath with the date below.
The four coins in this set are struck in solid 22-carat gold with a premium proof finish. Combined, these Sovereigns weigh 67.89 grams, offering an actual gold weight of 62.23 grams or just over two troy ounces (2.000741).
The Royal Mint issued 3,000 of these four-coin Sovereign sets in 2002 as part of a wider range of Golden Jubilee commemorative coins. A three-coin set was also released.
This pre-owned 2002 Sovereign set is highly collectable and comes complete with its original fitted green leather presentation case, which includes a numbered certificate of authenticity.
