2017 Pistrucci Full Sovereign Gold Coin

In 2017 to celebrate the 200th Anniversary of Pistrucci's Reverse Design from 1817, the Royal Mint released a Limited Issue St George and the Dragon Gold Full Sovereign Coin struck in solid 22 Carat Gold with a special 200th Anniversary Privy Mark.

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 special1989 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 2017 Gold Full Sovereign features Pistrucci's St George and The Dragon while the obverse depicts the Fifth Portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Jody Clark .
