1902 Gold Sovereigns For Sale - Edward VII
Although Edward VII acceeded to the throne in 1901, he was not crowned until 1902, and the first coins issued for him were dated 1902, all 1901 dated coins continuing to bear Queen Victoria's head. As sovereigns remained in circulation as pound coins until the first world war, most Edward sovereigns are quite worn. Because 1902 was the first date of his reign, some people tended to store a few nice shiny new coins, although few could afford to save sovereigns. We usually have a selection of 1902 sovereigns in stock from different mint, and in different grades, at a variety of prices.
Mints
In 1902, The Royal Mint in London, and the Australian mints in Melbourne, Perth and Sydney, all issued sovereigns. You can visit our Mints & Mintmarks page for further information.
Availability
As with many older sovereigns, availability can be quite variable, particularly in better condition. Often we come across small batches of sovereigns, all of a particular date and mintmark, so that we have an abundant supply while stocks last, then we may not see another similar batch for years.
