Description
The 2002 full Sovereign was minted to commemorate Queen Elizabeth’s Golden Jubilee and is a unique one-year type that has not been reissued since. This special Sovereign holds significant appeal for British gold collectors and has maintained a strong premium in the market. Its classic design pays homage to the original shield-back Sovereigns.
The full gold Sovereign has a total weight of 7.98 grams and is made of 22-carat gold, which is 91.67% pure. Sovereigns are popular investments because their lower price points make them accessible for regular purchases, and they are highly liquid investments.
The obverse side features the fourth crowned portrait of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, adorned with the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara, along with the surrounding legend. The reverse side displays the crowned royal shield of arms, encircled by a laurel wreath, with the date printed below.
