The 1937 Half-Sovereign - George VI

The first (and only) Gold Half-Sovereign of King George VI was only available in Proof. It is much sought after and therefore commands quite a high price. Only 5,001 were minted. SCBC: 4077.

The obverse, by T. Humphrey Paget, shows the bare head of the King facing left. Legend "GEORGIVS VI D: G: BR: OMN: REX F: D: IND: IMP:". Designer's initials (HP) below neck.

The Reverse, by Benedetto Pistrucci, shows St George and the Dragon. Artist's initials B.P. in exergue.
