(VAT Exempt)
Royal Mint three-coin gold proof Sovereign set for 2019 featuring a 2019 'full' Sovereign, Half Sovereign and a Quarter Sovereign. This set comes in its original presentation box, the coins still sealed in their capsules. A certificate of authenticity is enclosed, confirming that this is one of just 1,000 sets of this type, issued in 2019. In total, the coins in this collection weigh 13.97 grams, equating to an actual gold weight of 12.80 grams. The gold content means that we can offer this set without VAT and the status of the three coins as UK legal tender means that the buyer can take advantage of a Capital Gains Tax exemption. The obverse of each piece features Jody Clark's portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, the fifth and final definitive portrait to feature on Her Majesty's coinage. The reverses all feature the classic and instantly recognisable image of England's patron saint. The St George design is the work of an Italian artist named Benedetto Pistrucci who created this engraving for the first modern Sovereigns, issued in 1817 during the reign of George III. Full Sovereigns and Half Sovereigns originated in this period but Quarter Sovereigns are a more recent innovation, minted first in 2009 and mostly found in proof sets these days. This limited edition set is in pristine condition and makes a great addition to any proof set collection.

Limited edition gold proof three-coin 2019 Sovereign set featuring a Half Sovereign, a 'full' Sovereign and a Double Sovereign in their original presentation box.

Royal Mint Gold Proof Sovereign Sets

The very first gold Sovereigns were struck in the 1400s by the Tudor kings and their prestigious legacy was reclaimed when the modern Sovereign was introduced in 1817. Over the next century, Sovereigns became prized across the British Empire, trusted to contain a known and significant quantity of gold.

Sovereigns once circulated across the globe but production ceased with the outbreak of the First World War. Reintroduced in 1957, annual issues attract investors and collectors with limited edition proof Sovereigns - hand-finished for a flawless effect - the most sought-after.

Proof Sovereigns were initially only struck by The Royal Mint to celebrate coronations. The first proof pieces would be issued for collectors in 1979 with limited edition sets offered for the first time in 1980. Since then, boxed sets containing coins from each year's Sovereign family have attracted a dedicated group of collectors.

What Coins Are In 2019 Three Sovereign Sets?

Three coin fractional Sovereign sets issued by The Royal Mint in 2019 contain a range of collectible coinage, including:

The obverse of each of these coins features Jody Clark's fifth and final portrait of Her Majesty the Queen, in use on British coinage from 2015 until her passing in 2022. The legend used on each of the coins in the set reads: 'ELIZABETH II DEI · GRA · REG · F · D ·'.

The reverses show the instantly recognisable image of Saint George on horseback with the date below. It's an interpretation of the central legend associated with England's patron saint which involves St George slaying a fearsome dragon. This motif was designed in 1817 by Benedetto Pistrucci and has featured on many gold Sovereigns down the centuries.

Where To Buy A 2019 Fractional Proof Set?

Sovereign sets remain a prestige offer in The Royal Mint's calendar, eagerly anticipated by buyers. 

Just 1,000 of these 'full' Sovereign, Half Sovereign and Quarter Sovereign sets were issued in 2019.

In total, the coin in this three-coin proof set weighs 13.97 grams, equating to a pure gold content of 12.80 grams. As investment gold, these sets are offered VAT free and they're also Capital Gains Tax-free in the UK as each coin is technically legal tender.

This 2019 Sovereign set is practically as issued, with the fine proof finish of each coin protected by the original capsules. They come in their Royal Mint box of issue with an information booklet and a numbered certificate of authenticity enclosed.

'Premium' three-coin Sovereign sets were also issued in 2019, as well as individual proof 'full' Sovereigns and their bullion counterpart.
