The reverse is a Shield of the Royal Arms ensigned by an open Royal Crown, the whole superimposed upon a double rose and the circumscription ANNIVERSARY OF THE GOLD SOVEREIGN 1489-1989. The obverse shows H M Queen Elizabeth II seated as at her Coronation, within the circumscription ELIZABETH II DEI GRA REG FID DEF, which may be translated as Elizabeth II - by the grace of God, Queen, Defender of the faith. This set features a Proof quintuple-sovereign (five-pound coin), double-sovereign (two-pound coin), sovereign and half-sovereign. These proofs have been struck using specially selected blanks and highly polished dies. During striking, the coinage dies exert enormous pressure on the coin blank, with at least two separate blows (or strikes), ensuring that the impression has extra clarity. Complete with its own Certificate of Authenticity. THE FIRST SOVEREIGN WAS STRUCK FOR KING HENRY VII, OF THE TUDOR DYNASTY (REIGNED 1485-1509). SOVEREIGN COINAGE WAS DISCONTINUED IN 1604, BUT REINTRODUCED IN 1817 AND BECAME THE GOLD COIN STANDARD IN BRITAIN. ----------------------------------------------------------------- TO RESERVE This offer expires on the 15th Febuary 2019 - and/or subject to availability.
