The first sovereign date struck by the Perth Mint after the First World War, the 1919P Gold Sovereign forms a mouthwatering acquisition for any collector โ especially when found in Choice Uncirculated quality!
The 1914-18 First World War had proved a challenging time for the Perth Mint. Western Australian gold production dropped by nearly 23,000 ounces in 1915, for example, and nearly one-third of pre-war staff had joined the armed forces by 1916. Two clerks, Goss and Miller, had made the ultimate sacrifice at Gallipoli. In addition, the Commonwealth considered taking control of the Perth Mint โ a move strongly resisted by the WA Government. Although, as the deputy master said, it had been โa difficult matter to carry onโ, carry on the Perth Mint did, and in 1919, as Australia began the long process of recovery, the Mint struck nearly three million sovereigns.
Although a seemingly generous mintage, the 1919P Gold Sovereign is scarce today. In part, this is due to the huge if unknown number of Australian-struck sovereigns dispatched overseas at the end of the First World War to satisfy debt accumulated during the conflict. Of surviving examples, only the tiniest number would be in the supreme state of preservation seen here.
Officially graded by leading independent 3rd party verifiers Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) at MS63 โ the equivalent of Choice Uncirculated โ you must not miss this opportunity.
