Benedetto Pistrucci's historic Saint George and the dragon design appears on the reverse with a tiny 'P100' mintmark below, 'THE PERTH MINT CENTENARY SOVEREIGN' above and '1899-1999' are shown on the outer rim.
The obverse of this 1999 Australian coin features Ian Rank-Broadley's definitive coinage effigy of Queen Elizabeth II in the centre, with 'ELIZABETH II · AUSTRALIA' above and '100 DOLLARS' below.
While the centre of this coin is made of solid 22-carat gold, the outer ring is made of 99.9% fine silver, both parts struck to a uniform proof finish. The total weight is 13.00 grams, and the face value here is AUD$100.
The Perth Mint released 7,500 of these commemorative centenary Sovereigns in 1999. They can be considered the first issue in a now-annual series from the Perth Mint, inspired by historic Sydney Sovereigns.
This pre-owned Australian collector's coin is supplied in the original round wooden case from The Perth Mint inside a lined gift box, complete with the numbered certificate of authenticity.
