The 2013 Gold Proof Five Sovereign PF70 Ultra Cameo is a flagship modern sovereign issue, combining substantial gold content, historic design and flawless top-grade presentation.
Struck in 22 carat gold by The Royal Mint, the Five Sovereign weighs 39.94 grams, containing 36.61 grams of fine gold. As the largest standard sovereign denomination, Five Sovereigns are produced in significantly lower numbers than smaller denominations and are highly sought after by advanced collectors.
This example has been graded PF70 Ultra Cameo by NGC, the highest grade achievable. PF70 confirms a flawless coin under magnification, with strong frosted devices and deep mirrored fields throughout, placing it among the very finest examples available for this year.
The reverse features Benedetto Pistrucci’s iconic St George and the Dragon design, while the obverse bears the definitive portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, making this coin a standout piece within the modern proof sovereign series.

WHY COLLECT THE 2013 PROOF FIVE SOVEREIGN?
Five Sovereigns represent the pinnacle of the sovereign range, offering both impressive physical presence and long-term collectability. The 2013 issue sits within a highly collected modern period, and examples achieving PF70 Ultra Cameo are scarce due to the unforgiving nature of proof striking on larger flans.
Collectors building graded sovereign sets, registry collections or high-value proof runs place particular emphasis on top-graded Five Sovereigns, where condition and eye appeal are critical.
