2009 Australian Gold Sovereign

The 2009 Australian Gold Sovereign is a landmark release marking the resumption of annual sovereign production by the historic Perth Mint. Struck from 22-carat gold with a purity of 91.67%, this premium coin blends traditional numismatic heritage with an elegant Australian character. With a gross weight of 7.9881 grams and containing 0.2354 troy ounces of fine gold, it carries a nominal face value of 25 Dollars and holds official legal tender status under the Australian Currency Act 1965.

The coin’s reverse features an incredibly detailed depiction of the Australian Commonwealth Coat of Arms, showcasing the shields of the six states supported by the iconic kangaroo and emu against a mirror-like proof finish. The composition is beautifully framed by native golden wattle and incorporates the historic 110-year-old ‘P’ mintmark. On the obverse, the definitive effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Ian Rank-Broadley is presented alongside the 2009 year date and the monetary denomination.

With an exceptionally limited mintage of just 2,500 coins worldwide, this release offers incredible scarcity for both sovereign collectors and discerning gold investors. Each coin is beautifully housed in a classic timber presentation case and is accompanied by an individually numbered Certificate of Authenticity, reflecting the high standards of security and confidence expected from Galaxy Coins.
