These "short gold" proof sets were produced to celebrate the Coronation of King Edward VII on the 9^th August 1902 (having been postponed from 26^th June due to the King's appendicitis), with a mintage of 7,057 sets, which is over 1,000 less than the full "long" gold matt proof set. This year is the only time a matt finish set has been produced thus far for a Coronation.

The Latin legends translates on obverse as "Edward the Seventh by the Grace of God, King of all the Britains, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India."
