Couldn't load pickup availability
The 1999 Gold Proof Half Sovereign is a premium release from The Royal Mint’s modern sovereign series, struck in 22-carat gold and finished to the highest proof standard. This particular coin has been graded NGC PF70 Ultra Cameo, confirming its flawless condition, with perfect contrast between the frosted devices and deeply mirrored fields.
The reverse features Benedetto Pistrucci’s timeless design of St George slaying the Dragon, a hallmark of British numismatic tradition. The obverse displays the fourth portrait of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley, introduced in 1998 and noted for its bold and highly detailed depiction of the Queen.
As a late-1990s issue, the 1999 Gold Proof Half Sovereign is increasingly popular among collectors, especially in perfect PF70 Ultra Cameo condition.

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.
We recommend acting quickly if you see a price that suits your investment strategy, as prices can vary significantly in a short period.
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.
While preowned items may show minor signs of wear, such as scratches, milk spots or tarnishing, they are sold strictly as bullion, with their precious metal content fully guaranteed. Whether you choose new or preowned, you can be confident in the quality and authenticity of our products.
