The 2017 Jane Austen £2 Proof Gold Coin was struck by The Royal Mint in 22 carat gold to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the death of Jane Austen, one of Britain's most celebrated novelists. The reverse, designed by Dominique Evans, features an elegant silhouette of Austen framed within a decorative Regency-inspired design, accompanied by her signature and the inscription 'JANE AUSTEN 1817–2017'. The design pays tribute to her enduring literary legacy and the lasting influence of works such as Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility and Emma.

The obverse displays Jody Clark's fifth definitive portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, introduced to British coinage in 2015. This exceptional example has been independently certified PF70 Ultra Cameo by NGC, achieving the highest possible numerical grade for a proof coin. The Ultra Cameo designation recognises the striking contrast between deeply mirrored fields and sharply frosted design elements, demonstrating the precision and craftsmanship of its proof finish.

Combining British literary heritage with the enduring appeal of precious metal coinage, the 2017 Jane Austen £2 Proof Gold Coin represents a distinguished opportunity for collectors and investors alike. Its commemorative significance, elegant Regency-inspired design, limited-edition proof production and perfect NGC PF70 Ultra Cameo certification make it a desirable addition to any collection of British commemorative gold coins.
