Every Perth Mint Half Sovereign date from 1900 to 1918!

From the unique Queen Victoria 1900P to the excessively rare George V 1918P, and every coin in between, this breathtaking collection offers you the opportunity to secure every Gold Half Sovereign date struck at the Perth Mint!

A key coin in any grade, the series began with the 1900P – the ONLY Perth Mint Queen Victoria Half Sovereign date. Missing from many collections, the mintage was a low 119,376. Royal Mint branches were reluctant to strike the somewhat tricky half sovereign, and the Perth Mint was no exception. Thus, as they started under Queen Victoria, so would they continue – the Mint’s half sovereign mintages are astonishingly small!

Regarding Edward VII half sovereigns, the 1904P had a mintage of 60,030, with the mintages of the 1908P and 1909P being 24,668 and 44,022 respectively! Apart from the 1918P, Australia’s last half sovereign date, known by no more than 200 examples, the Mint only issued George V half sovereigns in 1911 (mintage 130,373) and 1915 (mintage 138,219). Overall, the average annual mintage of Perth Mint half sovereigns was an astonishing 73,841!

With the mintages so low, and so many coins melted for the gold in the 100+ years since struck, it’s no surprise that the Perth Mint Half Sovereign Series is rarely offered as a complete collection. Graded from Fine to about Uncirculated, we have only one comprehensive date set available – housed within a lockable black timber case a Certificate of Authenticity. Click add to cart now!
