A Golden Celebration of Empire and Innovation Struck between 1887 and 1893, the Queen Victoria Jubilee Head Sovereign is one of the most historically significant issues in the entire sovereign series. Introduced to mark the 50th year of Victoria’s reign, the coin bears Sir Joseph Edgar Boehm’s “Jubilee Head” portrait — a bold new effigy reflecting the Queen’s stature as Empress of the world’s most powerful empire.
Produced to the exacting sovereign standard each coin offered here is in Very Fine to Extremely Fine condition, ensuring sharp detail across both the portrait and Benedetto Pistrucci’s legendary St George & the Dragon reverse.
Sovereigns have long been prized as both timeless investments and tangible pieces of history. With the Jubilee Head type struck for just seven years, this is a rare opportunity to secure a sovereign that celebrates Queen Victoria’s Golden Jubilee and her enduring legacy.
