The Remembrance 2024 Proof Gold Half Sovereign

Order the 'Remembrance 2024 Proof Gold Half Sovereign' today for just £849 (FREE P&P!)

This Remembrance 2024 Proof Gold Half Sovereign beautifully captures the spirit of perpetual remembrance and reverence embodied by the Menin Gate Memorial in Ypres.

Every evening at 8:00 PM, the Last Post ceremony is held at the Menin Gate Memorial. This ceremony has taken place every day since 1928, except during the German occupation in World War II. A central part of the ceremony is the reading of the fourth stanza of Laurence Binyon’s poem “For the Fallen,” from which the coin’s inscription quotes: ‘AT THE GOING DOWN OF THE SUN.’

Expertly minted in the traditional 22-carat gold half sovereign specification to the highest proof quality, the coin’s reverse features the official coin portrait of King Charles III by Raphael Maklouf.

By ordering you have no further commitments and your purchase is protected by The London Mint Office 14-day “no-quibble” guarantee.
