    I ordered the £5 BU graded MS70 from The Coin Connection for around £130 on top of the RRP. I think this is an interesting bet as this is the only Matte special 5 Sovereign to date with a relatively low mintage (and probably the only one that'll exist during QE reign) , 
    With the 5 coins proof set, the SOTD Sovereign, The 5 Coin Pattern Piedfort Set, this £5 BU ends up beautifully my 2022 Sovereign collection (except the Piedfort I did not buy)

    Very chunky and heavy !
    I got my set back from grading and I have 1 PF 69 and 4 PF70, unfortunately, the PF69 is the master coin.  The £5 is in a thick slab, so we can't see the thickness. Other coins are in a standard slab, and  we can admire the plain edge thickness, even the quarter piedfort is nice to see and far from being ridiculous. I'll post pictures later

    They did not offer it on the website but they offered preorders to their customers who registered their interest,  raw or slabbed, a few weeks ago

    I was lucky enough to obtain one of the pattern piedfort sovereign sets and it is beautiful. Shame that it has to sit in my bank safe deposit box due to the value.

    Did you get that elusive pattern piedfort Sovereign set, or any individual ones from that set?  Now those must be some gorgeous coins for sure.  I can’t even imagine what a piedfort £5 would look and feel like.
