Gold Quintuple Sovereign History

The £5 gold coin has existed in many different forms over the years, and is sometimes referred to as a Quintuple Sovereign, Five Sovereign, and even a Crown coin. These coins are made with five times the amount of gold used in the standard Sovereign, which is where the £5 designation and name of Quintuple Sovereign comes from.

The gold £5 coins will at times be simply a bigger version of the Sovereign, with the same classic George & Dragon design on a larger coin. More often however they will be commemorative coins produced by The Royal Mint to mark an anniversary or special person in British history. This makes the £5 gold coin an unusual choice, moving between investment and collectable markets from year to year.
