With a legacy that dates back more than 500 years, The Sovereign is one of the world’s oldest coins and it remains in production to this very day. Known as the ‘chief coin of the world’, the coin is a sought-after piece that holds a special place in the world of numismatics and is highly
respected by collectors.
Paying tribute to its rich history, the 2027 edition of The Sovereign features Benedetto Pistrucci’s classic portrayal of St George slaying the dragon on its reverse. Created for the 1817 Sovereign, Pistrucci’s design has become synonymous with The Sovereign and is widely considered one of the finest works of numismatic art in the world.
