'Strike on the Day' coins are special issues from The Royal Mint, struck on the day of a special national event, like a Coronation, Jubilee or important anniversary. These coins are, by their nature, limited edition and often feature a brilliant uncirculated finish.
Jody Clark's fifth and final coinage portrait of Queen Elizabeth II is shown on the obverse of this strike-on-the-day Sovereign with an inscription around the edge which reads 'ELIZABETH II · DEI · GRA · REGINA · FID · DEF ·'
The reverse of this 2021 Sovereign features Benedetto Pistrucci's classic St George and the dragon design with the date (2021) below and a tiny crown mintmark to the left, only used on some collectors pieces from the 2021 Sovereign family.
Struck in 7.98 grams of 22-carat gold like all other gold 'full' Sovereigns issued since 1817, this limited edition collectable boasts an attractive matt brilliant uncirculated finish.
This strike-your-own coin was minted on 12 June 2021 to celebrate Queen Elizabeth II's 95th birthday. Just 1,195 of these Sovereigns were produced on this date and each one comes with a certificate of authenticity, hand-signed by Gavin Elliott, Head of Production for Commemorative Coins at The Royal Mint.
