Story

Centenary pair

Produced at The Perth Mint in 1922, the 100-year-old sovereign features Benedetto Pistrucci’s classic St George and the Dragon motif and a ‘P’ mintmark.

The coin’s obverse portrays King George V as represented by Sir E. B. Mackennal’s admired ‘Large Head’. Presented in premium grade Extremely Fine to about Uncirculated, the coin is a welcome acquisition for any avid collector.

Exclusive sovereign duo

The Perth Mint’s Australia Sovereign features a design inspired by Leonard Charles Wyon’s 1855 reverse for the Sydney Mint’s first sovereigns.

The design is embellished with a special platinum-plated representation of St Edward's Crown and a small '70' numeric privy mark in celebration of HM Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee. With a mintage of 1,000, the flawless coin’s obverse portrays Jody Clark’s effigy of the Queen.
