Gold Products: British Sovereign Gold Coins Offered for Sale by Silver Trading Company

Silver Trading Company is excited about the opportunity to offer British Sovereign Gold Coins, sometimes referred to as "Kings". These British Kings are nickel-size gold 22 karat bullion coins that were struck worldwide at the height of the British Empire.

First introduced in 1816, the British Sovereign Gold Coin came to be the world's most widely distributed gold coin, a distribution which grew along with the British Empire to be minted in Pretoria, Bombay, Ottawa, Melbourne, Perth, and Sydney. Hundreds of millions of Sovereigns were struck at their peak of distribution in the late 1800's and early 1900's.

These timeless gold pieces were indeed the world's "coin of the realm," trusted everywhere for their pure gold content and secure backing by the English crown. As daily trading gold pieces and stores of monetary value, they were - and still are - unsurpassed. In fact, Sovereigns are so universally accepted that they were included in the survival kits of American pilots during World War II and Desert Storm.

A large supply of gold Sovereigns, continued hoarding, and trade all over the world cause these nickel-sized gold coins to be available today at bullion pricing. But why purchase common bullion coins like the modern Krugerrands, Eagles, or Maple Leafs when, for about the same price, you can invest in historically important, classic, European Gold Coins?

Design:

As you can see from the pictures on the left, the obverse portrays the reigning monarch (the sovereign, hence, the name), and on the reverse side, portrays designer, Benetto Pestrucci's "St. George Slaying the Dragon."
