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.
