An exceptional limited-edition gold Sovereign collection from The Royal Mint, celebrating the fascinating history of Britain's Canadian branch mint and its contribution to the heritage of British gold coinage.

Presented in 2023, this distinguished two-coin collection brings together two historic full gold Sovereigns struck at The Royal Mint's former Canadian branch in Ottawa, representing a remarkable chapter in the history of British coinage.

Established in 1908, the Ottawa branch mint played an important role in the production of British gold Sovereigns during the early twentieth century. Coins struck at the Canadian facility are distinguished by their characteristic 'C' mint mark, identifying their origin and adding to their historical and numismatic significance.

Strictly limited to just 100 presentation sets, this particular collection is individually numbered 082 of 100, offering an exceptional opportunity to acquire a carefully curated piece of British and Canadian numismatic heritage.

This distinguished set forms part of a wider collection of historic and collectible precious metal coins acquired by Dobson Fine Jewellery, encompassing exceptional examples of British numismatic artistry and heritage.
