Records show that 1,000 of these Sovereign sets were issued by The Royal Mint in the year 2000. The four-coin set was the largest set available; however, a three-coin set was also released, excluding the gold £5 coin.
In 2000, four-coin Sovereign sets were sold in a red case, filed with individual capsules and secured by a ribbon, which included the certificate of authenticity. This pre-owned set comes with its original Royal Mint packaging, as issued.
