    All Sydney Mint sovereigns in MS are tough, even the common dates. Here's an 1866 in PCGS MS62.

    Here's one I tried by underexposing the image a bit per @Charliemouse's suggestion and bringing it up in post.  Captures the sheen of the coin but maybe could be a little brighter?

    Also gone full arts-and-crafts.  Here's the diffuser I made from tracing paper and pipe cleaners

    I've been away from the site for a bit so I can't remember if I uploaded this pic of the Pamp 2017 Sov with a bug sealed inside
    I guess this is confirmation of being a gold bug 
    (do odd things happen to everybody or just me lol)

    1957 Sovereign. The first coins minted under Elizabeth II. Taken with a macro lens at close to 1:1 ratio.

    Simonz got a reaction from Charliemouse in 2015 Sovereign, 5th Portrait (Clark), Bullion - Does it exist?   
    This is the only other mention I can find of 2015 5th head bullion.
    https://goldsovereignexpert.com/coins/368/2015-Gold-Sovereign/
    Can't find any listed for sale anywhere though, only proofs. Marsh 2021 edition makes no mention of 343, as you say. Most other sites seem to suggest only proofs of 5th head in 2015.
    I have a BU 2015 SOTD Charlotte which has I.R.B 4th head.

    Hi everyone, very happy to be a part of this forum, hoping to learn and contribute.
    Only recently started collecting due to change in circumstances and have gravitated towards Guineas, so much tactile history!
    I am ex UK, shifted to NZ in 2005 so don't qualify as a local yet! The one thing I miss about the UK is the history and coins seem a great way to reconnect.
    Looking forward to it, cheers Simon.
