Half Sovereigns
| Discover official Royal Mint Half Sovereign Coins, featuring one of the most popular and widely collected denominations within Britain’s historic Sovereign gold coin series. Struck in 22-carat gold, the Half Sovereign offers the same globally recognised design and Royal Mint quality as the Full Sovereign, but in a smaller, more accessible format. First introduced in its modern form in 1817, the Half Sovereign remains a key part of The Royal Mint’s gold coin range and is issued in bullion, proof, and Brilliant Uncirculated editions. The Royal Mint’s Accessible Gold SovereignThe Half Sovereign is struck to the same exacting standards as the Full Sovereign but contains half the gold content, making it an attractive entry point into British gold ownership. Weighing approximately 3.99 grams of 22-carat gold, it features the same iconic designs that define the Sovereign series, most notably Benedetto Pistrucci’s St George and the Dragon reverse, alongside official portraits of reigning monarchs including Queen Elizabeth II and King Charles III. Despite its smaller size, the Half Sovereign retains the full prestige and global recognition of the Sovereign family, which has been regarded as one of the world’s most trusted gold coin series for over two centuries.
