Description

The 2005 Gold Proof Sovereign was struck by The Royal Mint in 22-carat gold. It features Ian Rank-Broadley's fourth definitive portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse and modern interpretation of St George and the Dragon by Timothy Noad on the reverse. For 2005, Timothy Noad created a bold one-year reinterpretation of St George and the Dragon, making the issue one of the principal modern Sovereign design types. The full Sovereign follows the traditional specification of 7.98 grams, a diameter of 22.05 millimetres and approximately 0.2352 troy ounces of fine gold. Specially prepared dies and planchets create the reflective fields and sharply defined relief associated with Royal Mint proof production. The coin was supplied in official Royal Mint presentation packaging and was also available within multi-coin Sovereign proof sets. Original capsules, cases, booklets and certificates may vary according to the issue format in which the coin was first sold.
