1910 Great Britain Gold Half Sovereign Edward VII BU
Struck in the final year of King Edward VII's reign, this British gold half sovereign represents a classic era of coinage. The piece contains 0.1177 troy ounces of gold, minted with a purity of 91.67 percent. It stands as a brilliant example of early twentieth-century currency from the United Kingdom, cataloged by numismatists as KM#804. The obverse of the coin displays the bare head of King Edward VII facing toward the right. Surrounding the portrait are Latin inscriptions indicating his titles as King of all the Britains, Defender of the Faith, and Emperor of India. On the reverse, the coin features the legendary scene of Saint George on horseback, slaying a mythical dragon, a design deeply rooted in British numismatic tradition. This particular issue from 1910 had a total mintage of 5,024,000 pieces.
