Traditionally known as a gold coin, the sovereign has seen silver editions issued in recent years by The Royal Mint. These modern silver sovereigns blend historic design with investment-grade silver, appealing to collectors and silver stackers alike.
Why consider the Silver Sovereign?
- Features the traditional St. George and the Dragon design
- Struck in .999 fine silver
- Often released in limited numbers
- Royal Mint issue with collectable status
These coins aren’t as widely known or traded as gold sovereigns or mainstream bullion like the Silver Eagle — but they offer something unique: a low-premium silver coin with a recognisable design and British heritage.
Best suited for collectors or those building a diverse silver portfolio with an eye for design and story.
