For 2016 the Royal Mint released a very Limited Issue St George and the Dragon Gold Proof Full Sovereign Coin struck in solid 22 Carat Gold and depicts on it's obverse a special effigy by James Butler to mark the Queen's 90th Birthday.

Pistrucci's St George and The Dragon, seemingly inseparable from the British Sovereign, is acclaimed throughout the world as a masterpiece of numismatic art.
It's appeal has been so enduring that, with the sole exception of the special 1989 commemorative coins, it has graced the reverse of nearly every British sovereign since Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee in 1887.

The reverse design of the 2016 Gold Proof Full Sovereign Coin features Pistrucci's St George and The Dragon.
The obverse features James Butler's Fifth Portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
These legal tender coins have been struck to proof quality using specially prepared dies and highly polished blanks.

  • Limited Issue Presentation of 7,495 Worldwide
  • Finished to Royal Mint's Proof Standard in 22 Carat Gold
  • Features St George Slaying the Dragon by acclaimed designer Benedetto Pistrucci
  • Special Celebratory Portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II Designed by James Butler
