Each Great Britain Gold Sovereign Coin in this product listing is available to you in a protective flip. The coins are in Brilliant Uncirculated condition and feature older images of Queen Elizabeth II from the early years of her reign. Please note that we cannot guarantee a specific year of issue for the coin you receive. Possible dates include 1957 to 1968, with the potential for one of two different portraits of Elizabeth II. All coins are chosen at random after your payment clears, and you may receive matching coins if you buy multiples. Specific years or designs cannot be guaranteed in advance.

Great Britain Gold Sovereign Coins have been produced since 1817. However, during the 20th century, there was a shift in their production. Rather than being issued annually as circulation coinage, Queen Elizabeth II’s reign saw the Gold Sovereign predominantly issued as proof or bullion specimens.

On the obverse of the Great Britain Gold Sovereign Coins, you’ll find Queen Elizabeth II. The coins in this listing may feature either the first-generation portrait or the second-generation portrait of the Queen. From 1952 to 1964, The Royal Mint used a portrait of Elizabeth II with a laurel wreath tiara created by Mary Gillick. From 1965 to 1984, The Royal Mint used Arnold Machin’s popular second-generation bust of Her Majesty with the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara on her head.

The reverse of all Great Britain Gold Sovereigns listed here displays the image of St. George on horseback slaying a dragon. This design was created in 1817 by Benedetto Pistrucci and has been featured on the reverse of nearly all Gold Sovereigns issued in the last two centuries.
