Which 3 Sovereign Set Do I Have?

It often takes a special celebration or significant date to assemble these three gold coins into one set. This is especially the case with the Double Sovereign which historically, especially as you get closer to its reintroduction in 1820, has been scarcely available outside of Sovereign sets such as yours.

Your set likely has supplementary information regarding its theme and presentation occasion. However, we can identify three common 'types' of Half - Double Sovereign collections. The first is coins gathered to pedestal a particular design, perhaps presenting this across three different monarchs. Significant anniversaries or events, such as a jubilee, may also receive their own Sovereign collections often with a thematic display. Lastly, 'year sets' contain coins from the same mintage year, often holding a special mint mark.

If you would like to know more about your set before proceeding with a sale, our team will discuss your pieces with you to ensure you are fully informed throughout, as value can vary on a set-by-set basis.

Specification: 50p - £2 Sovereign Set 

One of the reasons for the Sovereign set's popularity is that these presentations are one of the only ways to reliably obtain a Sovereign struck to proof quality. Sovereigns intended for bullion collections are generally struck to an uncirculated bullion finish (sometimes also called 'prooflike'), however proof standard is commonly found among Sovereign coins belonging to sets.

If your triple Sovereign presentation contains proof coins, it is likely to demand a higher price when sold than the equivalent bullion Sovereigns. Be wary of dealers trying to pay bullion prices for investment quality - even given that Sovereigns belonging to sets are also struck in 22ct gold of 91.67% purity.

The combined gold content of the 50p, £1, and £2 Sovereign included totals to 25.62 grams. This is equal to 0.823 troy ounces. On the bullion market, this is the gold total that will feed into your sale offer in relation to the spot price. However, as mentioned, some sets are likely to hold value beyond the 25.62 grams of gold incorporated.
