Item Description

The 1892 Half Sovereign is a British gold coin, minted by the Royal Mint. The weight of the coin is 3.99 grams with a fineness of 916.7 (22 carat gold), this means it contains 3.6612 grams of pure gold. The diameter of the coin is 19.3 mm. The Half Sovereigns have a face value of 50 Pence (1/2 a Pound) and are legal tender in the UK. Obverse: The obverse of the Queen Victoria 1892 Gold 1/2 Sovereign depicts the jubilee head portrait, designed by Joseph Edgar Boehm. The coin is called a 'jubilee' because it commemorates the 50th anniversary of the Queen's reign. This effigy of Queen Victoria shows her profile facing left, wearing the small imperial crown. It is the second official portrait of Queen Victoria to be used on coins minted by the Royal Mint. The sculptor's initials, 'J.E.B.', are visible at the bottom of the head. The inscription on the coin reads 'VICTORI DEI GRATIA'. Reverse: The reverse of the 1892 Gold Half Sovereign features the design of Jean-Baptiste Merlen's Royal Coat of Arms and the inscription 'BRITANNIARUM REGINA FID: DEF:'.
