Why Should You Invest in Sovereigns?
If you're seeking a gold investment that has been trusted by investors worldwide for centuries, and one that offers UK investors the opportunity to maximise returns with exemptions from VAT and Capital Gains Tax, the sovereign is an outstanding choice.
Sovereigns are an ideal entry point into precious metals due to their lower gold content compared to other popular world bullion coins, making them more affordable. This lower gold content results in lower prices than other investor favourites such as the 1 oz Gold Britannia and the 1 oz Krugerrand.
Additionally, the smaller size of sovereigns enhances their liquidity, allowing for easier resale compared to larger bullion coins. While smaller coins can sometimes carry slightly higher premiums than larger ones, you can mitigate this by taking advantage of our quantity breaks or opting for options like our best value sovereigns (pre-owned) or minty condition sovereigns (close to mint condition).
Can I Buy 2025 Gold Sovereigns in Larger Quantities?
Investing in larger quantities? Orders of 25 gold sovereign coins will be supplied in a protective tube, ensuring your coins are safely secured. For orders of 500 gold sovereign coins, we include a monster box at no additional cost, offering optimal protection for your gold investment.

History of the Gold Sovereigns
The English sovereign was first issued as a gold hammered coin in 1489 for the King Henry VII. Designed by German engraver, Alexander of Bruchsal, the obverse featured the King in his coronation robes seated upon his throne, symbolising the power, success and splendour of the fledgling Tudor dynasty.
Although the first British gold sovereign was issued in 1489 for Henry VII, the modern gold sovereign was first struck in 1817 under George III. Issued with a nominal value of one pound, it was a circulation coin in Britain until the middle of World War I and abroad until 1932. The sovereign was reintroduced in 1957 as an investment coin to meet demand for gold bullion.
Today, the vast majority of British gold sovereigns showcase Benedetto Pistrucci's St George and the dragon design on the reverse, paired with various monarchs over time.
What Is Capital Gains Tax?
Capital Gains Tax (CGT) is a form of levies imposed on the profit garnered from the sale of assets, such as real estate, investments, and collectibles. In the United Kingdom, the present CGT allowance is £3,000 per annum per individual, which implies that one can earn up to £3,000 from the sale of assets prior to being subject to CGT. Read our CGT guide for more information to see what bullion coins are exempt from CGT and the ones which are.
Obverse
The obverse of the coin features the official UK coinage uncrowned portrait of His Majesty King Charles III by Martin Jennings.
The inscription on the coin reads:
· CHARLES III · DEI · GRA · REX · FID · DEF ·
Reverse
The reverse showcases Benedetto Pistrucci's iconic design of St. George slaying the dragon. Saint George is depicted on horseback, with the horse rearing towards the grounded dragon as George prepares to deliver the final blow.
