First issued in 1489 for Henry VII of England the Gold Sovereign coin typically had a nominal value of £1 or 20 shillings, the sovereign was primarily an official piece of bullion with no mark of value anywhere on the actual coin itself.

Gold Sovereigns have been present at some of the key events throughout history of Britain and they continue to play a significant representative role even today. The coins bear the portrait of Britain’s monarchs since their inception during the 15th Century. Gold Sovereigns are coins deeply rich in history and are closely linked with the Royal Family.
