1957 Gold Full Sovereign Elizabeth II Coin
The first bullion Sovereign issued during Queen Elizabeth II's reign. These sought-after British coins feature the first official coinage portrait of Her Majesty, as designed by Mary Gillick. The reverse revives the classic Saint George and the dragon engraving, created in 1817 by Benedetto Pistrucci. These 1957 coins are struck to a historic specification in 22-carat gold and offer investors 7.31 grams of pure precious metal. 2,072,000 gold Sovereigns were struck by the Royal Mint in 1957, the first large issue minted in London since the First World War. Designed as bullion coins, 1957 Sovereigns benefit from a Capital Gains Tax exemption as UK legal tender and are VAT-free thanks to their gold content. With their classic design and historic significance, these coins remain a key acquisition for Sovereign collectors and those looking to add heritage appeal to their gold investment.
