Your old gold coin could be a Sovereign or a Half-Sovereign. They are nearly identical other than for size.The Sovereign is 22.05 mm in diameter.The Half-Sovereign is 19.3 mm in diameter.They both have Edward VII on the obverse and St George and the dragon on the reverse.See the two links below.
Depending on the year and where it was minted, an uncirculated mint condition Edward VII Sovereign might go for anything from £150 to £650 GBP.
Such a coin does not exist. Edward VII had not been born in 1802, and became king in 1901. For the sake of identifying your coin, and assuming you refer to gold Sovereign coinage - the Quintuple Sovereign (Five Pound) is 36 mm in diameter the Double Sovereign is 28.4 mm in diameter the Sovereign is 22.05 mm in diameter the Half-Sovereign is 19.3 mm in diameter. All four coins show St.George slaying a dragon on the reverse.
A 1910 Edward VII Half- Sovereign has a gold bullion value of approximately £100. Gold is £834 per Troy Ounce (4 Oct 2010) and a half sovereign contains 0.1177 Troy Ounces thus equating to around £100. At the time of writing this the gold price is at a virtual all-time high. If there is a small S on the ground underneath St George and the Dragon on the reverse then the coin could be worth as much as £450 (if in UNCIRCULATED condition). The S refers to the SYDNEY Mint in Australia where they were also struck.
