Official 200^th Anniversary Issue

Struck from over 1/2oz of 22-carat gold, and notable for the limited edition of just FIFTY, the 2020 Double Sovereign has been issued to honour the 200^th anniversary of the end of the reign of King George III (1760-1820).

Recreating an iconic British coin…

An inspired way to celebrate this important anniversary landmark, this Double Sovereign Gold Proof recreates one of the key coins issued during the long reign of King George III – the counterstruck 1790s Spanish Silver Dollars. Issued very briefly as emergency currency due to extreme silver shortages in Britain, the counterstruck Spanish Silver Dollars featured a cameo portrait of George III stamped onto that of the Spanish king. An iconic element of British history, the counterstruck Spanish Silver Dollars are highly sought after around the world.

A golden tribute…

Struck to the pinnacle of Proof quality from 22-carat gold, this unique 28.40mm Double Sovereign carries a brilliant recreation of counterstruck Spanish Silver Dollar on the reverse. Official legal tender of St Helena, the Jody Clark portrait of Queen Elizabeth II is found upon the obverse.

And a golden opportunity!
