1981 Gold Sovereigns Now Available - No VAT!
In stock now for immediate delivery!
We can supply 1981 gold sovereigns from stock.
VAT was abolished on investment gold coins from January 1st 2000. All gold sovereigns are now exempt from VAT
Two Versions
The 1981 gold sovereigns are available in 2 different versions, Uncirculated and Proof
Uncirculated
Sovereigns were not issued in every year, but 1981 is one year for which uncirculated sovereigns are available.
We keep them in stock permanently, our current price on them is shown below.
They are ideal just as they are, although we can supply a leatherette case for £2, and we can also supply ring and pendant mounts for them, for those who like to wear their coins in jewellery. Sovereign pendants can be worn by men or women, sovereign rings are quite large and are more suitable for larger mens hands.
Proof
Proofs are specially struck coins, with a highly polished mirror finished background, and the raised design in contrasting matt finish. They are issued as limited editions, and are more expensive than the ordinary uncirculated version.
1981 proof sovereigns are contained in a plastic capsule within a Royal Mint leatherette wallet, and are accompanied by a certificate.
They are unnecessarily good for use in jewellery, which would ruin their special finish in a very short space of time, but they are ideal for the person who would prefer to keep them as a memento or family heirloom.

1981 Half Sovereigns
1980 was the first date of Elizabeth II half sovereign issued, indeed the first half sovereign issued since 1937.
For some reason, the Royal Mint did not issue any 1981 half sovereigns in either uncirculated or proof cersions. Details are shown on our 1981 Half Sovereigns Don't Exist page of our Tax Free Gold website.
Other 1981 World Gold Coins
We have a small selection of other 1980 world gold coins on our Tax Free Gold website.
