1911-1931-P Australia Gold Sovereign George V BU
Struck during the reign of King George V, this gold Sovereign represents a fascinating chapter in Australian coining history. Minted between the years 1911 and 1931, each piece contains 0.2354 troy ounces of gold, refined to a purity of 0.9167. These specimens survive today in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, preserving the crisp details of their original manufacture. The obverse of the coin displays the portrait of King George V, accompanied by the traditional Latin inscription GEORGIVS V. This royal likeness is paired with a legendary reverse design by the renowned artist Benedetto Pistrucci, which depicts the dramatic scene of Saint George on horseback slaying a mythical dragon. Careful observers will find a small "P" mint mark on the reverse side, indicating its origin at the historic Perth Mint. This tiny letter connects the coin directly to the rich gold fields of Western Australia, making it a captivating object of study for anyone interested in classic numismatic design.
