The "Queen Elizabeth II Decimal Gold Sovereign Coin" has been minted since 1817 by The Royal Mint. Each gold coin has the status of a true British Royal Sovereign. The face features a sophisticated engraving of Her Majesty's royal portrait and the Dei Gratia Regina inscription, with a striking 'George and the Dragon' image on the reverse.

The Golden Sovereign is one of the most iconic symbols of the British Empire and in particular of prosperity. The Gold Sovereign Coin is timeless and a sought-after 'golden investment'. Thanks to its fame and historical significance, this gold coin is considered by many to be the flagship of The Royal Mint. The consistency of the production quality still makes this special coin one of the most beautiful in the world.

Buying a Sovereign can be called a uniquely patriotic investment in gold. The classic statue of Saint George and the dragon crafted by Benedetto Pistrucci in 1817 is a masterpiece of design that is still displayed on today's golden sovereign. The sovereign has often been chosen by monarchs to celebrate a special event or a milestone. The gold coin has a long history and has proven to retain its value, which is why souvereigns are an excellent all-round investment in gold.
