Victoria Old Head
Sovereigns were issued for Queen Victoria in almost every year from 1838 to 1901. There were three main obverse (head) designs, and two reverse designs. The old head, also known as veiled or widow head, was produced from 1893 to 1901 inclusive.
Designs & Description
All Victoria Old Head sovereigns from 1893 to 1901 share the same obverse (head) design. The reverse is the familiar St. George & Dragon design originally engraved by Benedetto Pistrucci about 1817.
Mints
In 1899, The Royal Mint in London, and the Australian mints in Melbourne, Perth and Sydney, all issued sovereigns.
