Gold Sovereigns

The sovereign is an internationally recognised gold investment coin. This British coin is steeped in history; the modern sovereign was introduced in 1817 as a circulation coin and is still produced today. With a nominal value of one pound, the gold sovereign is one of the most tightly specified bullion coins in the world. Each year, the sovereign faces the Trial of the Pyx, a testing procedure which dates back to 1282 where the coin's weight and fineness is verified. Sovereigns are exempt from Capital Gains Tax which makes them a popular choice for UK investors as well as coin collectors.

Obverse

The obverse of the coin shows the Jody Clark portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. This is the fifth coinage portrait to be used. 

Reverse

The reverse of the coin shows the classic St George slaying the dragon. This was designed by Benedetto Pistrucci and first appeared on sovereigns in 1817. The date appears at the bottom of the coin.
