1989 500th Anniversary Great Britain 1/2 Half Sovereign PR70DCAM

Description

Celebrate a landmark in the history of the British Sovereign with this exceptional 1989 Gold Proof Half Sovereign, issued to commemorate the 500th Anniversary of the first Sovereign struck under King Henry VII in 1489. This special edition features a unique reverse design by Bernard Sindall, depicting the enthroned monarch inspired by the original Tudor Sovereign, rather than the traditional St George and the Dragon.

Struck in 22-carat gold to the highest proof standard, this coin has been independently certified by PCGS as PR70 Deep Cameo (DCAM)—the highest possible grade, signifying a flawless example with outstanding contrast between the frosted devices and mirrored fields. Combining historical significance, limited-issue appeal, and perfect preservation, this 1989 Half Sovereign is a highly desirable addition for collectors of British gold coinage and commemorative Sovereigns.
