1937 Great Britain George VI Double Sovereign Proof Gold Coin NGC PF 63* Star

A crown jewel of British numismatics, the 1937 Great Britain George VI Double Sovereign Proof Gold Coin NGC PF 63 Star* is a rare and highly desirable coronation-year proof. Struck in .9167 fine gold (22 karat) with an actual gold weight of 0.4709 troy oz, this coin has been awarded the prestigious NGC PF 63 Star* grade — recognizing superior eye appeal and exceptional proof quality for the issue.

Issued in 1937 to commemorate the coronation of King George VI, this Double Sovereign (Two Pounds) was produced in very limited numbers as part of the official gold proof set. With a mintage of only 5,500 pieces, it is a one-year type and one of the key dates in the modern British gold series. The obverse features the classic bare head portrait of George VI by Humphrey Paget, while the reverse displays Benedetto Pistrucci’s iconic St. George slaying the dragon.
