Coins derive their value from their rarity, condition, visual appeal and - most importantly – the size of their collector base. Our specialists are experienced at assessing preservation and identifying details that distinguish a common coin from a valuable one.

Victoria 1841 Sovereign XF40,unbarred As in GRATIA, rarest date for reign
Victoria (1837-1901), gold Sovereign, 1841, first young filleted head left, W.W. raised on truncation for engraver William Wyon, date below, Latin legend and toothed border surrounding, legend with unbarred As in last word, VICTORIA DEI GRATIA, rev. crowned quartered shield of arms within laurel wreath, emblems below, Latin legend and toothed border surrounding, BRITANNIARUM REGINA FID: DEF: (Bentley 970; Bull EGC 1060 R3; MCE 501; Marsh 24A R3; S.3852). Toned with light surface marks both sides, has been graded and slabbed by PCGS as XF40, very rare.
PCGS certification 206949.40/21144605.
Calendar Year Mintage 124,054.
The Latin legends translates on obverse as "Victoria by the Grace of God," and on the reverse "Queen of the Britain's, Defender of the Faith."
With the smallest annual calendar year mintage for any of the dates of the Victorian gold Sovereigns, 1841 is by far the hardest to find, and even then there is variety as the word GRATIA exists with either normal As or unbarred as we have demonstrated herewith.
