2003 Gold Sovereign - Elizabeth II Fourth head - Proof No box

Both proof and bullion sovereigns were issued in 2003. This 2003 proof sovereign is in mint condition. This coin features the fourth portrait of Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley. This proof has been struck using specially selected blanks and highly polished dies. During striking, the coinage dies exert enormous pressure on the coin blank, with at least two separate blows (or strikes), ensuring that the impression has extra clarity. No box or certificate is provided with this.
