The 1901 Sovereigns – last of their kind

The last sovereigns of the record-breaking reign of Queen Victoria, Australia’s 1901 M,S,P Gold Sovereign Trio forms a prestigious acquisition for any collector.

The long reign of Queen Victoria…

Ascending the throne aged 18, Queen Victoria ruled for nearly 64 years – becoming Britain’s longest reigning monarch as a result. Overseeing Britain’s rise to become the world’s primary superpower, and the industrial revolution, so significant was Victoria’s reign that the period was dubbed the Victorian Era. That era finally drew to a close in 1901, with the death of Victoria at the age of 81.

A numismatic masterpiece…

In the year of Queen Victoria’s death, gold sovereigns were struck at the three Australian branches of the Royal Mint, domiciled in Melbourne, Sydney and Perth. Bearing M, S and P mintmarks respectively, each coin carries Sir Thomas Brock’s superb Veiled Head portrait of Queen Victoria, united with Benedetto Pistrucci’s neo-classical masterwork, St George & the Dragon.

Beautiful, sought after and scarce…

Sought after worldwide, the 1901 Gold Sovereigns are also very scarce – in large part due to the millions of coins that have been melted for the intrinsic value in the 119 years since struck. An outstanding opportunity, the three coins in the 1901 M,S,P Gold Sovereign Trio grade from Very Fine to Extremely Fine.

A prestigious presentation…

A superb presentation, the 1901 M,S,P Gold Sovereign Trio is housed within a plush case complete with a Certificate of Authenticity. With a limited number of sets available, don’t delay your order – click add to cart now!
