The 5 Pound British Gold Sovereigns available in this listing come with protective plastic for delivery. We cannot guarantee a specific year of issue or design in this listing. All coins are chosen at random after your payment clears. Please note, it is possible to receive coins with the same designs and year of issue if you buy more than one.
Obverse
The obverse side of the coin features the reigning monarchs portrait. For the 5 Pound British Gold Sovereign, this has consistently shown Queen Elizabeth II in a right-profile view. Early coins in this series used the Maklouf third-generation portrait, while post-1998 coins feature Ian Rank-Broadleys fourth-generation likeness.
Reverse
The reverse design of these 5 Gold Sovereigns can vary, with Benedetto Pistruccis St. George and the dragon being the most iconic. Rooted in a 7th-century legend, this depiction celebrates St. George as a heroic soldier saint. Some coins, however, may showcase commemorative designs.
History
The minting of British gold sovereign coins began in 1817 following the Great Recoinage of 1816, which restored the gold sovereign coinage with the monarchs image. Production continued until 1917, with the coins remaining in circulation until 1932. After a brief pause, production resumed in 1957 under Queen Elizabeth II.
The 5 Pound British Gold Sovereign, though not as commonly circulated as the One Pound or Two Pound coins, features the same traditional design elements. Each coin is minted by the Royal Mint in Llantrisant, Wales.
