The iconic image of St George & the Dragon has ordained the coins of the United Kingdom, and specifically the world-renowned Sovereign, for almost 200 years. Additionally, the same classic design of England’s patron saint that has featured on the Sovereign also featured on many British Silver Crown coins for over 100 years. We are privileged to be able to offer The St. George & The Dragon 24 Carat Gold Coin.
St. George & The Dragon – arguably the most revered coin design in the world…
Struck in 24 Carat Gold to an immaculate proof finish, the St. George & The Dragon Gold Coin has been magnificently designed. The coin bears a reverse design of one of the most sacred English figures – the classic image of St. George – England’s patron saint – slaying the dragon. This unparalleled design has featured on British coins for nearly 200 years, the most well known being of course the Sovereign.
Further enhancing the appeal of this tremendous coin, it is limited to only 15,000 worldwide. This edition limit is significantly small, considering globally how many collectors have a passion for the prestigious St. George & The Dragon coin design.
The Upward Trend of Gold
In the last 12 months, gold has been one of the few beacons of economic strength. Whilst interest rates have been slashed to their lowest ever levels, and the price of stocks and shares have dived, the gold market has consistently been viewed as a safe haven and a reliable alternative in the turbulent economic conditions, continuing to reach record levels resulting in demand being further fuelled.
Like any global commodity, the future of gold prices remains unpredictable. But, despite industrial demand growing, no major mines have opened recently and some have become exhausted. Furthermore, in times of economic uncertainty there has been traditionally a trend towards owning bullion.
As a result, with gold continuing to perform so strongly many believe that there is no better time to be building an historic collection of gold coins to enjoy and pass onto children and grandchildren.
