AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Elegant gold pendant made with an authentic British 1 Pound Sovereign coin minted in 1874, during the reign of Queen Victoria.
The coin features on the obverse the profile of Queen Victoria with the legend VICTORIA D G BRITT REG, while on the reverse it shows Saint George slaying the dragon, Benedetto Pistrucci’s famous engraving, with the date 1874 visible at the bottom.
The coin is original and historic, subsequently mounted as a pendant with a simple and functional setting, probably made for personal use.
The item presents itself as an antique jewelry piece, ideal for coin enthusiasts who collect mounted coins or for those who want a gold jewel with strong historical value.
Technical features
• Type: Pendant with coin
• Coin: United Kingdom – Sovereign (1 Pound)
• Year: 1874
• Coin material: 22 kt gold (finition 0.917)
• Coin weight (standard): about 7.99 g
• Total object weight (coin + setting): about 8 g
• Coin diameter: about 22 mm
• Condition: circulated coin, wear consistent with age; setting in good condition
• Note: the coin is sold mounted, as shown in the photographs, and not as a loose numismatic coin
Even the suspension ring of the pendant is in solid gold but 18K, unlike the 22K of the coin.
The Sovereign is one of the most iconic and recognizable gold coins in the world.
This 1874 specimen, although not intended for pure numismatic collecting due to the mounting, retains full historical and intrinsic value tied to gold, making it particularly appealing as antique jewelry.
