22ct (916.7 fineness) gold. 3.99g gross weight containing 3.66g of fine gold. Priced from the live market in exactly the same way as the full Sovereign.
The Gold Sovereign is struck in 22ct gold — 916.7 fineness. A full Sovereign weighs 7.98g and contains 7.32g of fine gold; a half Sovereign weighs 3.99g and contains 3.66g of fine gold. Because the specification is fixed, a genuine Sovereign’s gold content is never in doubt.
That makes Sovereigns one of the easiest coins to sell: instantly recognisable, always in demand, and priced directly from the live gold market. You can sense-check any gold weight yourself with our gold price calculator.
We price every Sovereign from the live market on the day you sell — the figures above update with the market through the day.
Most Sovereigns sell at their bullion value. Very rare dates and mintings can be worth more — bring yours in and we will check for you.
Your final valuation depends on verified purity, payable weight and condition. We also buy gold in every form — jewellery, bars and all recognised bullion coins.
