Design Features

The obverse of the coin features the second bare head portrait of King George V, facing left. This design was created by Bertram Mackennal and includes the initials "B.M." on the truncation of the neck. The accompanying legend reads: "GEORGIVS V D.G. BRITT: OMN: REX F.D. IND: IMP:", which translates to "George the Fifth by the Grace of God, King of all Britains, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India."

On the reverse side, the iconic design by Benedetto Pistrucci depicts St George slaying a dragon. This side also includes "WWP" under St George's lance and features the mint mark "P" at the center of the ground-line along with the date "1929" in the exergue.

Condition

This particular specimen has been graded as MS63 by NGC (Numismatic Guaranty Corporation), indicating it is in excellent condition with minimal wear and retains much of its original lustre and detail.

Rarity and Collectibility

The 1929P Sovereign is considered rare due to its relatively low mintage compared to other sovereign issues from different years and mints. Its historical significance as part of George V's reign adds to its desirability among collectors. The smaller head portrait introduced in this year was only used until 1932, making it particularly appealing for type collectors.
