2020 Sovereign Coins

Explore our collection of 2020 Sovereign Coins, featuring one of the most distinctive modern issues of Britain’s flagship gold coin. Struck by The Royal Mint, the 2020 Sovereign range combines the timeless St George and the Dragon design with a special commemorative mint mark celebrating the legacy of King George III, making these coins particularly appealing to collectors and investors alike.

Commemorating 200 Years Since the Death of King George III

The 2020 Sovereign marks the 200th anniversary of the death of King George III, the monarch under whose reign the modern Sovereign was revived in 1817. To honour this milestone, collector editions feature a special George III royal cypher mint mark on the reverse, positioned alongside the classic design by Benedetto Pistrucci. This one-year-only detail distinguishes the 2020 issue from other annual Sovereigns.
