Struck in the coronation year of King George V, this 1911 British gold half sovereign represents a classic era of United Kingdom coinage. The piece is composed of 0.9167 fine gold, containing 0.1177 troy ounces of precious metal. It has been certified in a remarkable proof state, graded PR-66 with a cameo finish, highlighting the sharp contrast between the frosted details and the mirrored fields. The obverse of the coin displays the left-facing portrait of King George V. Surrounding his image is a partial Latin inscription, including the visible elements GEORGIVS V DEI GRA BRITT OMN REX FID DEF IND IMP, which translates to George V, by the Grace of God, King of all the Britains, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India.
