The British Sovereign coin, first introduced in 1489 during Henry VII’s reign, was originally valued at one pound sterling and featured the monarch’s portrait on the obverse and the Tudor rose on the reverse. The modern Sovereign, introduced in 1817 during George III’s reign, established the iconic design featuring Benedetto Pistrucci’s St. George and the Dragon on the reverse, a design that continues to be used on modern Sovereigns more than 200 years after the modern version was first issued. Now, The Royal Mint is issuing the first-ever Silver Sovereign. Right now, 2025 Proof Great Britain Silver Sovereign Coins are available from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Each 2025 Proof Great Britain Silver Sovereign Coin offered here comes with proof visuals that include frosted elements with mirrored fields. The coins are housed in capsules and presented in a black presentation box from The Royal Mint.
The Sovereign became the literal gold standard for world coinage following its reintroduction in 1817. The spread of the British Empire throughout the 19th century resulted in the Sovereign rising to prominence as the most well-known form of currency in the world. The original Sovereigns were struck on five different continents over time, with more than one billion Gold Sovereigns struck to date.
Obverse design elements on these 2025 Proof Great Britain Silver Sovereigns depict His Majesty King Charles III. This first-generation effigy of Charles III was created in late 2022 by Martin Jennings. The left-profile relief depicts His Majesty without a crown on his head.
Reverse visuals on 2025 Proof Silver Sovereign Coins include Benedetto Pistrucci’s classic 1817 image of St. George. The design element shows St. George on horseback as he wields a sword in his hand and rides down a dragon.
