Reverse Design: A new reverse design was introduced featuring Saint George slaying a dragon, designed by a brilliant young Italian engraver, Benedetto Pistrucci. This beautiful classic design remains on our gold sovereigns today, almost two hundred years later, and for most of its life must have been one of the worlds most widely recognized coins.
This first St. George design was within a garter, and was used from 1817 to 1820. For George IV the garter was removed, and the dragon fight continued from 1821 to 1825, in conjunction with a laureate portrait of the King.
