Victorian Half Sovereign Gold Coin
This is an 1864 Victoria Half Sovereign, a classic example of British gold coinage from the Victorian era. The coin features a portrait of Queen Victoria on the obverse and a design depicting a shield of the Royal Arms on the reverse. Half Sovereigns were popular for everyday transactions and as a store of wealth, and this particular example offers a glimpse into the economic and social history of the time.
