1902 Gold Sovereign Melbourne


1902 Gold Sovereign Melbourne

The 1902 Gold Sovereign is the first gold sovereign coin in the reign of King Edward VII.

The Reverse of the 1902 Melbourne Sovereign depicts Benedetto Pistrucci’s famous portrayal of St George slaying the dragon. The small 'M' on the ground just above the date indicates the gold sovereign was minted at the Melbourne mint, Victoria, Australia.

King Edward VII’s portrait, by George W. de Saulles, can be seen on the obverse of the coin.
