Best Answer

Such a coin does not exist.

The modern Sovereign coinage was reintroduced into the currency in 1817. The Five Pound Sovereign in 1820.

Similar coins circulating in 1775 would have been the 5 Guinea coin, but there were none issued in 1775.

There are two factors that determine the value of a gold sovereign.

  • its condition
  • its scarcity

The 1925 sovereign was minted in 5 locations:

  • London
  • Melbourne
  • Perth
  • Sydney
  • Pretoria

The most desirable is the Perth mint coin. If it's in perfect uncirculated condition, you may achieve a price of around £400 - £500.

If your coin is in circulated condition, then its more likely to be simply bullion value.

At the time of writing this answer, the value would be £180.75 ($318.00 / 247.78 Euro).
