1893 - 1901 Queen Victoria Widow Head Sovereigns Full Date Run Set (9 Sovereigns)
The Widow or Veiled head coinage marks the end of the Victorian era which spanned 64 years now the second longest of any remaining British Monarch to our present Queen Elizabeth II. The Royal Mint took the decision to replace the somewhat unpopular Jubilee bust sovereign, 6 designs were submitted by Royal Academy sculptors. The now famous Thomas Brock design was chosen to much acclaim, and was engraved into metal by the mints chief engraver George W De Saulles, who would later go on himself to design the obverse of the King Edward VII coinage. The Widow head coinage includes the initials T.B. under the queens bust, with new legend now including 'Empress of India'.
The set you will receive will contain sovereigns of About Extremely Fine condition with some remaining lustre, and will be from the various Mints operating at the time, London, Melbourne, Perth, Sydney. The Mint mark for Widow head sovereigns can be found within the ground line above the date on the reverse of the coin. NB: Sovereigns struck at the London Mint do not have a mint mark. Your 9 coin sovereign set will be supplied within a wooden display case encapsulated within air tight screw type coin capsules.
