0.280 Ounces (7.3224 Grams) 22 Carat Fine Gold Coin (916.7). Regarded as an ideal investment for a collector.
As a way of identifying the mint locations of sovereigns, international mints mark their sovereigns with a letter signifying the manufacturer of origin.
This 1897 7.988g Sovereign coin is struck from 22-carat gold and is legal British tender but the coin's Melbourne Mint origin is marked by the ‘M’ stamped on the reverse of the coin, placed above the date.
Following the gold rush, the Australian government authorised the Melbourne mint to produce sovereigns identical to the ones produced by The Royal Mint to keep up with the demand.
Some of these coins are vintage and may show signs of a long life that add to their character.
