The largest gold coin in the British Sovereign Series is the 5 Pound Gold Sovereign. First issued in 1820 as a pattern coin during the reign of King George III, this particular version of the Gold Sovereign has been struck on and off over the centuries. Since 1980, it has been back in production, albeit irregularly. Right now, certified 5 Pound British Gold Sovereigns are available to purchase online from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Each 5 Pound British Gold Sovereign in this product listing is a near-perfect specimen according to the NGC or PCGS. Coins in Mint State 69 condition exhibit full, original mint luster, with no more than two minor detracting flaws. Examples of those flaws are limited to minuscule contact marks or hairlines that must be located outside of the focal points of the coin.
JM Bullion offers these coins to you with only the guarantee of an MS69 grade. The coins are chosen at random after your payment has cleared and we are not able to guarantee the date mark of the specimen you receive in advance. If you buy multiples, you may receive coins with the same date marks. We cannot guarantee which grading house labels will be in the slab of any given coin.
The obverse of the 5 Pound British Gold Sovereigns comes with an effigy of the reigning monarch of England. The 5 Pound British Gold Sovereign has been struck off and on during the reigns of all British monarchs dating back to the reign of King George III. The most common portraits to feature on this denomination during Queen Elizabeth II’s reign are Arnold Machin’s second-generation effigy of the Queen and Raphael Maklouf’s third-generation portrait.
On the reverse of most 5 Pound British Gold Sovereigns in the modern era is Benedetto Pistrucci’s depiction of St. George slaying a dragon. This design has been featured on Gold Sovereigns since 1817. The only exception during Queen Elizabeth II’s reign has been a 1989 coin celebrating the 500th anniversary of the original English gold sovereigns.
