The Sovereign
Chief Coin of the World
The Royal Mint struck the first gold Sovereign in 1489 and since then it has survived retirement, rebirth and reform to become the most trusted bullion coin in existence. Recognised by investors all over the world, no other bullion coin has a secondary market as well established as the gold Sovereign, making it easy to liquidate. Due to its investment-grade status, the Sovereign Bullion Coin is free from VAT. Furthermore, as it is considered legal UK tender, it is exempt from Capital Gains Tax (CGT) for UK residents. The 2022 Sovereign Bullion range, featuring the Platinum Jubilee design, includes a Half Sovereign, Sovereign, Double Sovereign and a Quarter Sovereign providing investors with flexibility and choice.
