Description

The George V 1/2 Sovereign coin is a distinguished piece of British numismatic heritage, struck during the reign of King George V, who ruled from 1910 to 1915. This gold coin, composed of .916 fine gold with a weight of approximately 3.99 grams, represents a smaller denomination of the full sovereign, making it an accessible yet valuable addition to coin collections and investment portfolios.

On the obverse side of the George V 1/2 Sovereign coin, a portrait of King George V is prominently displayed. The king is depicted in profile, adorned with a laurel wreath, a symbol of victory and honour. The surrounding inscription reads “GEORGIVS V D.G. BRITT: OMN: REX F.D. IND: IMP.,” which stands for “George V, by the Grace of God, King of all the Britons, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India,” signifying his extensive titles and realms.

The reverse of the coin features the iconic image of Saint George slaying the dragon, a design by Benedetto Pistrucci that has become synonymous with British gold coinage. This dramatic and detailed scene embodies themes of bravery and virtue. The date of minting is displayed below, and the small size of the coin does not diminish the intricacy of the design, which has been celebrated for its artistry and symbolism.
