The 2022 Queen Elizabeth II Memorial Quarter Sovereign coin is a magnificent piece of numismatic history. With a weight of 1.997g and gold content of 22 karats (.9167), this coin is an excellent example of royal heritage, minted to honour one of the most celebrated monarchs of all time, Queen Elizabeth II.
Like all British Quarter Sovereign coins the Queen Elizabeth Memorial Quarter Sovereign is UK legal tender with a value of 25 pence.
The obverse of the coin showcases a detailed portrait of King Charles III by Martin Jennings, the first time His Majesty has appeared on the series. The reverse of the coin features the Royal Coat of Arms of Queen Elizabeth II, who's intricate design showcases a powerful lion and unicorn standing rampant over a central shield displaying the heraldic symbols of the nations of the United Kingdom. The design is distinguishable from the current Royal Coat of Arms due to it featuring the St Edward's Crown from the crown jewels rather than the Tudor Crown chosen by King Charles.
