George V 1918S Gold Sovereign Extremely Fine

George V 1918S Gold Sovereign Extremely Fine

The sovereigns struck from 1914 to 1918 enable the collector to create a powerful connection with those who served Australia in “the war to end all wars”. Struck at the Sydney Mint in the year the guns finally fell silent after four years of slaughter, we have a tiny number of 1918S Gold Sovereigns available.

Uniting Benedetto Pistrucci’s St George & the Dragon reverse motif with the noble portrait of King George V, all First World War sovereigns are scarce today. This is in part due to the low mintages, and the number melted for the gold in the 100+ years since struck – plus those sent overseas to pay off debt after WWI. The difficulty in tracking down WWI dates can also be attributed to the ongoing demand for genuine artefacts of Australia’s Baptism of Fire in WWI.

Offered in premium grade Extremely Fine condition, each 1918S Gold Sovereign is set in a timber case with a Certificate of Authenticity. Click add to cart now!
