Queen Victoria Jubilee Head Sovereign
The Queen Victoria Jubilee Head Sovereign was produced between 1887 and 1893, and coincided with the Queen's 50th Jubilee. This gave the design it's name, and was the second portrait of Queen Victoria to be used. Initials for Joseph Edgar Boehm (J.E.B.) appear until 1890, while those for Leonard Charles Wyon (L.C.W.) appear until 1891. Beyond that, Victoria Jubilee Head Sovereigns will feature T.B. at the base of the Queen's neck, for Thomas Brock.
Queen Victoria Jubilee Head Sovereigns were minted in London and Australia, with coins produced by international mints featuring mint marks to denote this.
