2004 British Gold 4 Coin Proof Sets
Return of the Dragon
In 2004, St. George and the dragon returned to the 4 coin gold sovereign sets on all four coins, after the special reverse design for the Golden Jubilee in 2002. The 3 coin gold sets contain the Steam Engine commemorative £2.
Issue Limits
For 2001, the issue limit was only 1,000. The issue limits for 2002 were increased considerably to 2,500 because of the Golden Jubilee celebrations. The limits for 2004 have returned to 2,250 sets.
Design News
In previous years the 3 coin and 4 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. For 2004, there is a change. The three coin sets contain the commemorative two pound, while the four coin sets contain the St. George and Dragon version.
