Edward succeeded the throne upon Queen Victoria's death which was in 1901, though he wasn’t actually crowned until 1902 and the first coins issued for him bear this date. 1901 coins continued to bear Victoria’s head.
Edward played an important role in fostering good relationships between Britain and the rest of Europe, though no doubt his cause was aided by having relatives in some of the European royal houses. In France he became known as the Peacemaker though unfortunately he wasn’t able to stop the 1914 outbreak of world war I.
The reverse of the Edward VII sovereign bears St George on horseback slaying the dragon, while the obverse features the bare head of Edward VII. Due to thier continued circulation until world war one, the majority of these sovereigns tend to be fairly worn.
