UK 1897 Diamond Jubilee Victoria Sovereign

In 1897, Queen Victoria was first British Monarch to experience a Diamond Jubilee.

And over 100 years later, just a handful of Westminster Collectors have the chance to secure an original Gold Sovereign issued in the year of this significant milestone.

Here’s why you need one for your collection:

  • Commemorates Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee in 1897 - the first British Monarch to reach a Diamond Jubilee.
  • Features the ‘Old’ or ‘Veiled’ head portrait of Queen Victoria, redesigned in 1893 - highly favoured by collectors for their historical value.
  • Victoria was the only British Monarch depicted wearing a veil on coinage, symbolising her mourning of Prince Albert.
  • Survived the World War One government efforts to reclaim gold coins - one of the few to still exist today
  • Presented in a luxury presentation case with an original certificate of authenticity - preserving it for generations

Due to its rarity and the fact it bore witness to such a poignant milestone for the British Monarchy, availability is extremely limited.
