About the Sovereign

The Sovereign is one of the world's most historic and recognised gold coins, first introduced by The Royal Mint in 1817. It features the iconic St George and the Dragon design by Benedetto Pistrucci and is one of the most widely traded bullion coins worldwide. Available in multiple sizes, the Sovereign suits investors across all budgets.

UK Tax Position

Gold Sovereigns are VAT-free in the UK and exempt from Capital Gains Tax as UK legal tender. Silver versions also qualify for CGT exemption but carry 20% VAT (pre-owned coins may qualify for the Margin Scheme).

Why Compare Prices?

Premiums on the Sovereign can vary significantly between UK dealers, particularly on smaller fractional sizes and new-issue coins. Comparing live prices across multiple dealers can save meaningful amounts per coin, especially on larger orders.
