1924 Gold Sovereigns
We keep 1924 sovereigns in stock for immediate delivery. We try to maintain a stock of all dates of gold sovereigns, because 1924 is one of the more difficult dates of George V, we make an extra effort to ensure that we have some in stock. It will be in particular demand during 2003 for 80th birthday gifts.
The Last Sovereigns
Not every date exists for gold sovereigns. The London mint stopped producing sovereigns after 1916, although a few 1917s were issued. From 1917, only the branch mints continued to issue sovereigns, and by 1924 only the three Australian mints in Sydney, Melbourne and Perth were issuing them, plus the Pretoria mint in South Africa which only came into production in 1923.
Low Mintage
The total mintage figure for 1924 was quite low, compared with over 30 million in some years. It surely rates as the most difficult date of all George V sovereigns.
