1 Sovereign - Edward VII

正面描述	Bare-headed right-facing effigy of King Edward VII, rendered with fine naturalistic detail including a short beard and mustache, engraved by George William de Saulles whose initials 'De S.' appear below the truncation. The king's mature portrait is shown in high relief with a draped bust truncation. The circular Latin legend reads around the upper and lower periphery, separated by the portrait, within a beaded border.

附加信息	Edward VII's sovereigns resumed the St George reverse after the old shield-back type of his mother's later reign, but the more consequential change was administrative: the network of branch mints at Melbourne, Perth, Sydney, Ottawa, and Bombay meant London-struck pieces like this were increasingly a minority of total sovereign production during these years. The Ottawa mint opened for sovereign production in 1908, the same year Edward's government was negotiating the terms of what would become the 1910 Colonial Conference. Spink 3969 covers only the London issue. Branch mint pieces carry their own references and command different premiums depending on the facility.
