Great Britain Gold Sovereign Coins have been available since 1817, but the 20th century saw a change in the production of the coins. Rather than annually issuing the coins as circulation coinage, the reign of Queen Elizabeth II saw the Gold Sovereign issued predominantly as a proof or bullion specimen.
In the obverse of Great Britain Gold Sovereign Coins, Queen Elizabeth II features. The coins in this listing are predominantly dated from the 1960s and 1970s. During this period, Her Majesty was depicted on the coins in one of two effigies. The most likely effigies are the first-generation design from Mary Gillick or the second-generation effigy from Arnold Machin.
For the reverse, all Great Britain Gold Sovereigns listed here have the image of St. George on horseback slaying a dragon. This design was created in 1817 by Benedetto Pistrucci and has featured on the reverse of nearly all Gold Sovereigns issued in the last two centuries.
