The Victoria Old Head half sovereign. This half sovereign design is commonly referred to as 'the Old Head', as it is the last portrait of Queen Victoria to appear on a coin. The Old Head is also known as the veiled or widow head; it features an older and more mature portrait of Queen Victoria wearing her crown and veil, as a tribute to her deceased beloved husband.
