READ MORE

The 1830 gold sovereign was the eleventh and final sovereign to be issued during the reign of King George IV. This is because two sovereign designs were issued in 1825. The updated bare head design was issued in 1825 together with the older design. From 1825 onwards (until 1830) only the bare head portrait of George IV with a crowned sheild reverse design was issued. 

See the rest of the 1830 Sovereign Collection.

Hammered gold coins called 'Sovereigns' had been minted on and off between 1489-1604, whereupon James I (VI) changed the name of the 20 gold piece to a 'Unite'. The reform coinage Sovereign of 1817 onwards was issued as a normal circulation type coin, and also as a proof. 

Obverse

The obverse depicts a bare head potrait of King George IV by William Wyon.

The inscription reads

GEORGIUS IV DEI GRATIA 

the obverse also includes small, oval flowers which separate the inscription from the date which is inscribed below the portrait.

Reverse

The reverse shows Jean Baptiste Merlen's design of a crowned shield.

The inscription reads

BRITANNIARUM REX FID: DEF:

I have found everyone in the company…

I have found everyone in the company that I’ve dealt with as exemplary. Especially when I’ve had to get used to a new way of paying (prepay) or when my computer wasn’t sending as it should( Bhumika was excellent in the way she calmly and logically worked on the process with me, please thank her). Best wishes to all the team.
