A little info on the 2005 Sovereign

Aethelred

From Chard:

"2005 sovereigns will have a St. George and Dragon reverse, but with a difference! Details of the exact design are embargoed at present, but we believe that it will be a stylised version of Saint George slaying a dragon. Issue limits for the uncirculated version may be kept at 100,000 and the proofs at 12,500 plus some reserved for proof sets, although it is still too early to be precise. Keep watching this space for further updates as details become available. This will also apply to the half sovereigns, and also to the gold proof £2 and £5 coins also. This also will apply to all the coins in the 3 coin and 4 coin gold proof sovereign sets.
Availability is likely to be about the second week in January 2005 for the uncirculated (bullion) version, although we are still waiting for confirmation of this, and possibly the same time or later for the proofs."
