1894 Queen Victoria Gold Sovereign Sydney Information
As a way of identifying the mint locations of sovereigns, international mints mark their sovereigns with a letter signifying the manufacturer of origin.
This 1894 7.988g Sovereign coin is struck from 22-carat gold and is legal British tender but the coin's Sydney Mint origin is marked by the ‘S’ stamped on the reverse of the coin, placed above the date.
After the discovery of gold in Australia rather than shipping the gold to London to be minted, it was more efficient to refine the organic gold into coins in Australia. The Sydney Mint was the first to produce sovereigns in 1855 and was subsequently followed by the Melbourne Mint and the Perth Mint.
Some of these coins are vintage and may show signs of a long life that add to their character.
