With only a few exceptions, most sovereigns struck since 1817 have depicted George, the patron Saint of England in his epic battle with the dragon. This iconic design was created over 200 years ago by the renowned Italian sculptor and engraver Benedetto Pistrucci (1783-1855) who was described in his time as “an artist of the greatest celebrity”.
In 2019, we changed history when we released the World’s First Silver Double Sovereign - the greatest numismatic change we will see in our lifetimes. It is fitting that the world’s first silver double-sovereign should also depict the triumph of good over evil as represented by Saint George and his scaly adversary. The acclaimed artist Angela Pistrucci, reinterpreted the famous battle in a new, contemporary style. Inspired by her ancestor’s masterwork, Angela has expertly remastered the design for the twenty-first century.
Timelessly elegant, and classically stylish, the silver double-sovereign represents a major milestone in the history of the sovereign. Never before has the coin been so affordable to own, and while other silver double-sovereigns will undoubtedly follow, this will forever be the first.
