The Sovereign 1914
Over 100 years ago, the First World War ravaged the world. It was a conflict that claimed the lives of thousands. This 1914 George V Sovereign is a tribute to the brave men and women who served on the front line. It also marks the end of a golden era, quite literally, as precious metals such as gold began being replaced by banknotes, in a bid to help fund the war effort. Struck from the finest gold, the coin represents an incredible period of history. An asset to any collection.
