2013 Gold Sovereign – India


The 2013 Gold Sovereign - India

In India in 2013 there was a large demand for gold coins. As India did not permit gold coins to be imported, the Royal Mint licensed the Indian/Swiss joint venture company MMTC-PAMP mint to strike new Gold Sovereigns. It was the first time India has minted gold sovereigns since 1918.

The Gold Sovereigns are minted with the quality control of the Royal Mint and are legal tender in the UK. There is an 'I' mint mark just above the date.

Benedetto Pistrucci's famous portrayal of St. George slaying the dragon is depicted on the reverse of the coin.

Queen Elizabeth II's fourth portrait can be seen on the obverse, designed by Ian Rank-Broadley.

These are bullion gold coins but are usually accompanied by with a deluxe presentation box.
