Queen Elizabeth II Sovereigns 1957-1968
The very first sovereigns struck of Queen Elizabeth’s reign were dated 1953 and only a very few were struck in proof form, no currency type coins exist and the proof itself is only held in national collections so it is not one which is expected to come to the market place. I mention this very special coin as its portrait design by Mary Gillick remained exactly the same for the first year of the currency type issue in 1957 but due to changes in the Commonwealth the words BRITT.OMN had been removed from the obverse. So by the time the public got their first look at the sovereign we were already on the 2nd bust.
Mary Gillick’s second portrait design also known as the pre-decimal head sovereign was produced from 1957-1959 and 1962-1968, 1960-61 do not exist. The 1957 has a finer edge milling often referred to as graining and to simplify means that it has more milling then 1958 onwards.

Queen Elizabeth II decimal sovereigns were struck at the Tower Mint in London until 1975 when the mint moved its operations to Liantrisant in Wales, none were struck at overseas mints. The photos shown are examples only, the grade will be about uncirculated, these sovereigns were never intended for circulation, however most will show small bag marks from being bagged in bank vaults for large periods of their life.
