An exceptional example of Queen Victoria's reign, this 1871 Gold Sovereign showcases the Young Head design in Extremely Fine condition. Die 78 represents a specific striking variant from the Royal Mint's production that year, making it a notable piece for collectors of Victorian coinage.
The coin displays sharp detail across both obverse and reverse, with minimal wear consistent with its EF grade. As a full sovereign, it contains one quarter ounce of 22-carat gold, offering both numismatic and intrinsic value.
A desirable addition to any collection of 19th-century British gold coins, this 1871 sovereign combines historical significance with the enduring appeal of Victorian-era precious metals.
