1982 Gold Proof Full Sovereign – NGC PF69 Ultra Cameo
Couldn't load pickup availability
The 1982 Gold Proof Full Sovereign is a superb example of early modern proof sovereigns, struck by The Royal Mint in 22-carat gold to the highest standards. Graded NGC PF69 Ultra Cameo, this coin is virtually flawless, showcasing deeply mirrored fields and beautifully frosted devices, with just the slightest permissible imperfection preventing a perfect PF70.
The reverse features Benedetto Pistrucci’s iconic design of St George slaying the Dragon, a timeless image that has appeared on sovereigns for over two centuries. The obverse carries the elegant second portrait of Queen Elizabeth II by Arnold Machin, used between 1974 and 1984.
Sovereigns from the early 1980s are growing in demand, particularly in high grades like PF69, as collectors and investors look to complete full proof date runs.

Why This Coin Stands Out
The 1982 Gold Proof Sovereign in PF69 Ultra Cameo condition offers a near-perfect example from a popular decade for modern sovereigns. With its classic design, high grade, and growing scarcity, this coin is an ideal choice for collectors aiming to secure top-quality 1980s sovereigns.

Precious Metal Price Fluctuations
Please note that the prices of precious metals, such as gold and silver, are subject to fluctuations due to market conditions. As a result, the price of our bullion products can change frequently.
When you place an order, the price is locked in at the time of purchase, ensuring you pay the agreed amount regardless of any subsequent market movements.

Buying New or Preowned Gold and Silver
At Sovara Coins, we offer both new and preowned gold and silver products to suit various investment strategies. Purchasing preowned bullion can be a cost-effective option, as it often comes with a lower premium over the spot price, allowing you to maximize your investment.
