As we observe the 75th anniversary of the end of the Second World War, The Royal Mint marks this milestone for the nation with a gold Sovereign – a coin befitting such a momentous occasion. Just 750 Sovereigns featuring Benedetto Pistrucci’s iconic St George and the dragon design will be struck on 15 August 2020, as we pay tribute to the stoicism of the wartime generation. The coin features a special anniversary mint mark and the striking is authenticated by a hand-signed Certificate of Authenticity which accompanies the 22 carat gold Brilliant Uncirculated coin.
