| Beschrijving keerzijde | A dramatic and finely detailed depiction of Saint George, armored and on foot, confronting a large rearing dragon that dominates the left and upper portions of the field. Saint George is shown in a dynamic stance, holding a lance in his right hand and bearing a heraldic shield charged with a cross in his left, while the dragon, rendered with elaborate scaled and textured detail, lunges toward him with open jaws and outstretched claws. The entire design is rendered in selective gold plating against a darkened mirror-polished silver field, creating a striking two-tone contrast. The numeral 200 appears in the lower portion of the field, within a beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Gibraltar has issued sovereign-format coins since 1973, operating under a long-standing arrangement that permits the territory to produce its own coinage distinct from UK Royal Mint output. The "1 Sovereign" denomination here is purely nominal — Gibraltar's legal tender sovereign series has never been tied to the gold sovereign's historic bullion value, functioning instead as a commemorative program.
The selective gold plating on this silver issue highlights the St. George motif, a technique that became common in the Gibraltar program during the 2010s to differentiate annual releases within the series.
