Australia Five Sovereign 2025 Gold Proof Reverse Gilded Coin

A masterful reinterpretation of one of the most revered coin designs in numismatic history. Struck from 91.67% pure gold, this limited-edition collectable celebrates Perth Mint’s proud legacy of sovereign production dating back to 1899.

Inspired by Benedetto Pistrucci’s classical St George and the Dragon design, this modern version re-imagines the heroic tale with exceptional artistry. A naked warrior on horseback raises his sword triumphantly above the dragon, symbolising the eternal triumph of courage over evil. The detailed image is surrounded by a circle of raised dots and inscriptions including AUSTRALIA, 2025, and The Perth Mint’s iconic ‘P’ mintmark all gilded in 22-carat pink gold to striking effect.

The obverse features the effigy of His Majesty King Charles III by Dan Thorne.

Each coin is housed in an elegant wooden presentation case with a numbered Certificate of Authenticity and an illustrated shipper. With a worldwide mintage of only 150 coins, this release is a rare opportunity for collectors to own a piece that unites British heritage and Australian minting excellence.
