Description

The 1957 Gold Full Sovereign coin is a highly sought-after piece of numismatic history, celebrated for its timeless design and historical significance. Struck in 22-carat gold, this coin contains 7.98 grams of pure gold and has a diameter of 22.05mm, adhering to the traditional specifications of British sovereigns.

The obverse of the coin features the first portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by Mary Gillick. This youthful and elegant depiction of the Queen marked the beginning of her reign and is surrounded by the inscription “ELIZABETH II DEI GRATIA REGINA F:D” (Elizabeth II, by the Grace of God, Queen, Defender of the Faith). On the reverse, the iconic image of St. George slaying the dragon, designed by Benedetto Pistrucci, takes centre stage. This classic design has been a hallmark of sovereign coins since 1817 and symbolises bravery and triumph.

The 1957 Gold Sovereign was among the first sovereigns minted during Queen Elizabeth II’s reign, making it a significant piece for collectors. It was produced at the Royal Mint in limited quantities, adding to its rarity and appeal. This coin is not only a valuable investment in gold but also a cherished artefact of British history and craftsmanship.
