Edward VII Coins

1901–1910 · Edwardian era

Edward VII's short Edwardian reign saw a dignified, formal coinage portrait by George William De Saulles. Notable for the 1902 Coronation issue (lower-mintage matt-proof versions in collector demand), and for the resumption of the Pistrucci St George reverse on the sovereign after a brief absence under late Victorian shield reverses. Edward VII silver and gold are accessible mid-tier collector territory.
