| Additional information |
The fourth portrait of Elizabeth II, by Ian Rank-Broadley, was introduced across Royal Mint gold coinage in 1998 and remained the standard effigy until 2015. The 2005 double sovereign sits in the middle of that run — an unremarkable year for mintage variation, with no recorded die anomalies specific to this date.
Marsh and Spink references confirm the type but document no significant rarity for the 2005 date over adjacent years.
