Half Sovereigns - New Golden Jubilee Design
Proofs Now in Stock!
This year's - 2002 - half sovereigns and sovereigns have a shield reverse. We now have stocks of both proof and uncirculated versions.
Shield Reverse
The shield reverse was last used for Queen Victoria from 1838 to 1893 inclusive. It is perhaps fitting, then, that the Royal Mint have chosen not only to change the half sovereign design for our own queen's golden jubilee, but also to revert back to the shield design.
Issue Limits
For 2002, the issue limit has been set at a maximum of 100,000. This is the same as for 2002, despite the fact that the Golden Jubilee celebration will make this new issue even more popular. The issue limit for the proofs has also been maintained at 12,500 individual coins, excluding those issued as part of the 3 and 4 coin gold proof sets.
Year 2002 Gold Half Sovereigns
Two Versions:-
Year 2002 gold half sovereigns are being produced by the mint in two versions, ordinary uncirculated "bullion" grade, and "proofs" for sale to collectors.
Proof Version
The proof version has sold out out the Royal Mint, but we still have a small quantity available from stock. Please see our current prices below.
Uncirculated "Bullion" Version
The issue limit for year 2000 was set at 250,000. This was the lowest mintage figure, apart from proof versions, for over 100 years. The limit for 2001 was even lower at only 100,000.
