1857 EF Gold Queen Victoria Sovereign Ex. Queen Victoria was the longest reigning British monarch and the figurehead of a vast empire. She oversaw vast changes in British society and gave her name to an age. She succeeded her uncle, William IV, in 1837, at the age of 18, and her reign dominated the rest of the century.

In 1840 she married her first cousin, Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg Gotha. After the Indian Mutiny in 1857, the government of India was transferred from the East India Company to the Crown and in 1877, Victoria became Empress of India.

Her empire also included Canada, Australia, India, New Zealand, and large parts of Africa. In 1887, Victoria's Golden Jubilee and, 10 years later, her Diamond Jubilee were celebrated with great enthusiasm. Queen Victoria had nine childen, Victoria Adelaide Mary Princess Royal, Kaiser Wilhelm II the German Emperor, Duchess Charlotte of Saxe-Meiningen, Prince Henry of Prussia, Prince Sigismund of Prussia, Princess Victoria of Prussia, Prince Waldemar of Prussia, Sophie of Prussia, Queen of Greece, Princess Margarete of Hesse. 1857 Queen Victoria Gold Sovereign Spink 3852D, Marsh 40. Graded by DNW as EF. The Michael Gietzelt Collection of British and Irish Milled Coins. Michael Gietzelt was born in Berlin in 1954, the son of a doctor.

Educated at Berlin Secondary School, he performed his military service in the DGR Medical Corps, attaining the rank of Sergeant, before entering Berlin University to study medicine in 1975. Within two years he had decided that medicine was not the career choice for him and he opened his antique shop on the Frankfurter-Alle in Berlin in 1977.

From the outset Michaels aim has been to form a type collection of British coins from Edward III to the present day, but with the dispersal of his milled coins his coin collecting focus will now be on the hammered series, including Scottish and Irish issues, while maintaining his collections of coins and tokens of the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands. Together with his wife Gisela, Michael also collects German porcelain, particularly Meissen, while their busy home life revolves around their five children and ten grandchildren.
