Acclaimed coin designer Jody Clark is the creator of the Fifth (and final) coinage portrait of Her Late Majesty and has produced multiple designs for our most exclusive ranges since 2021.
Throughout this blog, we will be exploring the different ranges that have been created by this exceptionally talented artist.
Throughout her incredible seventy-year reign, Queen Elizabeth II appeared on a multitude of different coins, from pre-decimal to now. The very first coinage portrait of Queen Elizabeth II was created by Mary Gillick in 1953, and was used on coins in the United Kingdom and other countries until 1970.
Here, we will be looking back at the British coins of Queen Elizabeth II through the years.
Our latest release, the 2022 St George and the Dragon Bi-Metallic Gold Sovereign Range, are the world’s first gold sovereign coins to be struck using two types of solid 22 carat gold, also known as bi-metallic. We are already familiar with bi-metallic coins in circulation. However, this is the first time this technically demanding form of striking has been attempted with gold coins.
In our latest blog, we will be exploring the process of striking bi-metallic coins…
It’s now well over two-hundred years since the first modern sovereign coin appeared, with St George slaying the dragon as its motif. In 1821, Benedetto Pistrucci’s classical depiction first appeared and it is remarkable that this design still appears on gold sovereigns produced today.
The tale of St George vanquishing his foe has an enduring relationship with gold sovereign coins and one that is anchored in over two centuries of tradition. Here, we will be exploring ten of the most significant St George and the Dragon gold coins as mentioned by coin specialist Peter Hutchison.
A silver sculpture of St George slaying the Dragon is used as an automobile mascot for Queen Elizabeth II‘s state limousines.
This sculpture was designed in 1952 by Edward Seago, the same year that Elizabeth became Queen.
A depiction of St George vanquishing the dragon is one of, if not the, most renowned reverse designs on sovereign coins. This mythical tale of good triumphing over evil has such a long and illustrious association with the gold sovereign coin that the two are almost synonymous.
Engraved by Benedetto Pistrucci, the George and the Dragon design first appeared on British sovereigns in 1817. For more than 200 years, this design has been used on the coins of every British monarch, except for William IV. Here, we will be exploring the coinage available at Hattons of London that feature this remarkable design…
