Designs & Description
Notes: * These mintage figures combine the two reverse types as we are unable to find mintage figures for the St. George reverse alone.

All Victoria Young Head sovereigns from 1837 to 1887 share the same obverse (head) design. The reverse is the familiar St. George & Dragon design originally engraved by Benedetto Pistrucci about 1817. 
For this date there is also a Young Head Shield Sovereign
