Gold Double Sovereign

The Gold double Sovereign is a variant of the classic Sovereign coin weighing 15.98 grams. Often referred to as the £2 coin, the legal tender status of the Double Sovereign means it is both VAT-free and CGT exempt. First issued in 1820 as a pattern coin, the double Sovereign is an interesting historical purchase for investors looking for just less than half an ounce of gold. Prices shown include free, insured delivery to the UK.
