How much is a 4 coin Sovereign set worth?
26th September 2025 : Today, we're paying a minimum of £5,581.92 for a four coin Sovereign set. This price is for the 'large' set, comprising the quintuple, double, full and half Sovereigns. If you have the set containing the double, full, half and quarter Sovereigns, please see our 4 coin small set page.
While multiple variations of the four-coin Sovereign set exist, including commemorative examples containing circulated and varied coins, this page concerns the larger type with a £5, £2, £1, and 50p gold Sovereign gathered together. Here is a Sovereign set treasured by many, not least for the inclusion of an elusive and highly collectable Quintuple £5 Sovereign Crown.
If your Quadruple Sovereign set is of a different nature, our numismatists will offer a bespoke quote. Either way, the best place to get started is to outline what you are seeking to sell to the best of your knowledge on our online claim form. We will be in touch very shortly after!
The remainder of this page outlines the Quintuple Sovereign, Double Sovereign, Sovereign, and Half Sovereign set from its value to its specifications.

£5, £2, £1, and 50p Sovereign Specification
With only one fractional denomination included, the overall pure gold total in sets such as yours is an impressive figure by any standards. As the gold value increases alongside the named denomination, the intrinsic gold content can be calculated at 8.5x that of a single 'Full' Sovereign. The combined gold content among these 22ct coins is therefore a commanding 62.22 grams. The largest, and likely most coveted, coin present is the Five Sovereign coin, measuring an impressive 36.02 millilitres in diameter.
Aside from the significant gold content, another of the factors that feed the sought-after nature of sets such as yours is that they are commonly released in proof quality. This means that each coin has been struck multiple times in a meticulous process involving carefully polished dies. When compared to a standard bullion Sovereign, often referred to as being 'uncirculated' in quality, it is easy to see how enthusiasts and serious collectors might favour the detail associated with the proof examples.
Sovereigns released in sets such as the £5 to 50p collection are often done so in honour of a new coinage portrait or special occasion. Specification can therefore vary as commemorative designs, issue limits, mint marks, and privy seals are evident across a number of 4-coin collections.

At Gold Traders, our experts have been busy buying precious metal with the public since 2008. Over that time, we have grown and developed in many ways but, in our core practice, much of our buying process has remained constant. We don't deal in hidden fees, back-end valuations, or offering bullion figures for items of collector's quality.
This is why we invited Trading Standards to extensively vet our progressive way of dealing in 2022. The result? Gold Traders became the first UK dealer to be approved through the Trading Standards 'Buy With Confidence' scheme. So, if you are looking to sell a Quintuple, Double, Full, and Half Sovereign set (or indeed any other gold coins from across the world) then the best place to get started is with our online claim form.
We also understand that some of the best deals are made in person so, if you wish to meet us in our Wiltshire office, we invite you to arrange your visit prior to arrival. We are based just outside of Swindon, only a handful of miles from the M4.
