The Gold Sovereign

A Coin Of History, Weight & Pure Gold Value

The British gold sovereign is one of the world's most recognized gold coins, first minted in 1489 under Henry VII. The modern coin's famous reverse shows St George slaying the dragon, designed by Benedetto Pistrucci in 1817 and still one of the most celebrated coin designs ever made.

The front carries the reigning monarch's profile, a tradition unbroken for centuries. But what makes a sovereign worth real money today is its gold: every Full Sovereign contains 0.2354 troy ounces of 22-karat gold.

That gold is worth the same whether the coin was struck in 1817 or 2024, and at today's prices that's real money.

Weight

Value comes from the exact troy-ounce gold weight of each coin. Full, Half, Quarter and Quintuple sovereigns each carry a set amount, which we measure precisely.

Purity — 22 Karat

Modern British sovereigns are struck in 22-karat gold (916.7/1000 fine), a standard unchanged since 1817. We confirm it with professional testing equipment.

Daily Gold Rate

Your offer uses the live gold price on the day of valuation, the same LBMA benchmark used by banks and refineries.

Any Condition Accepted

Mounted In Jewelry. Worn Or Circulated. Still Full Gold Value.

A sovereign set into a ring, pendant or bracelet, or one that's circulated for a century, contains exactly the same gold as a freshly minted coin. We pay on gold content, not collector grade or surface condition.

Uncirculated, worn smooth, marked from a mount or just old and tarnished, the gold inside is the same, and today it's worth a significant sum.

  • Sovereigns removed from jewelry, with mount solder: full gold rate
  • Worn, circulated or polished coins: condition doesn't affect gold value
  • Sovereigns from any reign, Victoria to Charles III
  • Other gold coins too, such as French Napoleons and Krugerrands
  • Part collections and single coins all welcome

Frequently Asked
Questions

Have more questions about selling your sovereigns? Call our Little Rock team at 501-859-1282. We're happy to discuss your collection before you send anything.

Are rare dates worth more than the gold?
Some are. Certain dates and mints carry a collector premium. Tell us the dates on your coins and we'll let you know if any are worth more than their gold value.
Do you buy sovereigns set in rings or pendants?
Yes. We pay for the sovereign's gold and the gold mount, valued together or separately, whichever is clearer for you.
Should I clean my coins before selling?
No. Cleaning can scratch coins and lower any collector value. Send them as they are.
How do I tell a Full from a Half Sovereign?
A Full Sovereign is about 22mm across and a Half is about 19mm. Our table above lists every size, and we'll confirm each coin when we value it.
How quickly will I be paid?
In store, you can leave with cash the same day. By mail, you're paid within 24 hours of accepting our offer.
What if I don't accept the offer?
There's no obligation. We return every coin free and fully insured.
