1900S Veil Head Sovereign Uncirculated

The 1900S Veil Head Gold Sovereign is a distinguished coin struck at the Sydney Mint during the final year of Queen Victoria’s reign. This uncirculated example features the "Veil Head" or "Old Head" portrait, introduced in 1893, which depicts the Queen wearing a widow’s veil and the Order of the Garter, a design by Sir Thomas Brock that reflects both regal dignity and the passage of time.

Struck in 22-carat (91.67%) gold and weighing 7.98 grams, the coin bears the iconic reverse image of St George slaying the dragon, created by Benedetto Pistrucci. The 'S' mintmark confirms its origin at the historic Sydney Mint, which played a key role in producing sovereigns for the British Empire during Australia’s gold rush era.
