A beautiful 1987 Royal Mint Gold Proof Half Sovereign, complete with its original Royal Mint presentation box, protective capsule and numbered Certificate of Authenticity.

This stunning 22 carat gold coin features the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse and the iconic St George and the Dragon design on the reverse.

Struck by the Royal Mint to a high-quality proof finish, the coin weighs approximately 3.99g and contains 3.66g of pure gold. It measures 19.30mm in diameter and is made from 22 carat gold (916.7 purity).

It comes complete with its original blue Royal Mint presentation box, Certificate of Authenticity numbered 02581 and original information booklet. The box and paperwork show some minor signs of age and storage, as expected for a collectible dating back to 1987.

A fantastic opportunity to own a genuine piece of British numismatic history. With its precious gold content, beautiful design and original Royal Mint presentation, this coin would make a wonderful addition to any collection or a special gift.

I also have another 1987 Gold Proof Half Sovereign available separately, with a consecutively numbered Certificate of Authenticity, making these particularly interesting for collectors.
