Other Information
The gold sovereign is one of Britain’s most famous coins, the first of which was minted in 1489 by King Henry VII. The modern Sovereign featuring Benedetto Pistrucci’s ‘St George and the Dragon’ reverse design was first struck in 1817. Due to its long history, the UK Sovereign coin is considered by many as the flagship coin of The Royal Mint.
