Story

Centuries of tradition

The Half-Sovereign has been closely associated with the British monarchy since it was first struck in 1544. It carries the same level of detail and stellar reputation worldwide as its full counterpart. 

Special reverse design

In tribute to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the coin’s traditional St George and the dragon reverse steps aside for Jody Clark’s skilled portrayal of the Royal Arms.
