2014 British Gold 3 Coin Proof Sets
Featuring the classic St George and the Dragon design by Pistrucci, we are able to stock these sets on the secondary market.
Gold Sovereign Series
Each year since 1980, the Royal Mint have produced sets of 3 and 4 coins in the gold sovereign series, in 2009 the four coin set became a five coin set with the introduction of the quarter sovereign. The 3 coin set usually consists of a sovereign, half sovereign and double sovereign or two pound piece, this is also a Premium Three Coin Set. The 'standard' three coin set now contains a sovereign, a half sovereign and the quarter sovereign.
Design News
In previous years the 3 coin and 4 / 5 coin sovereign collections have usually contained all coins of the same design, however in a number of years, the two pound coin included with the sets has been the commemorative version instead. The 2014 coins all feature the St George design.

Royal Mint Prices
We have always thought the three coin set to be too expensive to make them a worthwhile purchase. Many people obviously agree as it is one of the few products that many UK dealers do not stock. This may also be something to do with the Royal Mint price breaks! In order to qualify for a reasonable discount you have to buy quite substantial quantities.
For this reason we will not be purchasing either the standard or premium three coin sets direct from the Mint this year.
If, however, you would like to purchase quantities of these sets, i.e. 10 or more please contact us as we may still be able to source them at considerable discount compared to the Royal Mint.
Wanted
We play an active part in the secondary market for many gold and silver products, including three coin sovereign sets so we would be more than happy to purchase a 2014 (or any other date) three coin set from you.
This obviously means that we may at some point have one for sale, so if you would like to telephone us and place an order we would hope to fulfil it with time.
