Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 2009 anniversary of the first gold sovereign, which was introduced in 1489 during the reign of King Henry VII. The coin's design features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse and a depiction of the iconic St. George and the Dragon on the reverse, which is a classic feature of gold sovereigns. This coin's unique combination of historical significance and limited mintage makes it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
