1914 United Kingdom 1/2 Sovereign Gold Coin with Die Crack Error – George V, BU

The 1914 United Kingdom 1/2 Sovereign Gold Coin is a remarkable piece of numismatic and historical value—made even more special by its rare die crack error, making it a must-have for error coin collectors and British gold enthusiasts alike.

Struck in 22-karat gold (.917 fineness) and weighing approximately 3.99 grams, this half sovereign bears the portrait of King George V, the monarch whose reign spanned the turbulent years of World War I. The obverse showcases his crowned bust facing left, while the reverse displays the iconic design of St. George slaying the dragon, crafted by Benedetto Pistrucci.

What sets this coin apart is a mint error—a visible die crack, which occurred during the minting process. This minting flaw adds uniqueness and value, as die crack errors are sought-after by specialists and collectors alike. The coin remains in Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) condition, boasting sharp detail and lustrous surfaces despite the striking error.

Minted in the final year before gold sovereigns were pulled from general circulation due to the outbreak of WWI, the 1914 half sovereign stands as a symbol of the end of an era in British coinage. Its small size and gold content also make it a practical entry point for both investors and numismatists.

Whether you are a fan of British Royal Mint history, an error coin collector, or a savvy gold investor, this coin offers a rare opportunity to own a unique variant of an already highly collectible issue.
