• The Half Sovereign Gold Coin is one of the oldest
  coins that are still minted to the present day,
  and as such is something of an icon for those in
  the know. The sovereign itself dates back to 1489
  and the reign of King Henry VII. The Half
  Sovereign Gold Coin, which has a face value of
  half the sovereign (half a pound), soon followed,
  as it was introduced in the mid-16th century
  under the reign of King Henry VIII.

Gold Half Sovereigns

• The design typically has the reigning monarch on
  one side, with a figure of Saint George slaying
  of the dragon on the other. This design, by
  Benedetto Pistrucci, dates back to the 1820s,
  and remains standard to the present day.
• By far the largest number of gold Half Sovereigns
  released were in 1982, when 2.5m of them were
  circulated across the country. Until 2000, the
  half sovereign was relatively sparsely
  circulated, when larger numbers were again
  produced. This makes some years of the coin more
  valuable and sought-after than others.
