This 1817 gold coin, “Proof half sovereign of George III,” was designed by Italian-born medalist Benedetto Pistrucci, who is known for his work on British coinage. The coin, which features the profile of King George III, is a prime example of Pistrucci’s detailed and refined style, featuring the inscription “Georgius III Dei Gratia” along the edge and the year “1817” inscribed at the bottom. This small, yet intricate piece, is a testament to the artistry of coin-making and a reminder of the importance of such objects in representing power and sovereignty.
