....a 2002 BU sovereign.
Hardly original but I fancy getting getting the other one offs- the 2005 and 2012. Not sure I want to fork out a grand for the ‘89 though!
When I got hooked to sovereigns, that was some of the first things I did. 2002, 2005 and 2012 were easy.
For the 1989, I ended up buying the set of three for 1200€ hammer price. Still undecided about the half and the double... I'll keep the half, most likely.
Just last week, an auction of a 1989 full sov alone fetched 750€ hammer price ?

2016 proof sov
NGC PF70
2016 proof sovereign doing really well
Great piece!
How do we/they know that this is one of the first 75 struck?
By the CoA number?
If so, how do we know that the coins are packaged and CoA'ed in the exact order of strikes?

How on earth did they make these 'overdate' dies, and why??? Looks like a typewriter job

Thanks. That were my thoughts too.

Would someone think this is a no-B.P. version?

Yesterday I received:
1) The Piedfort Sovereign 2018
2) Two Israeli gold coins from an auction (KM 73 and 41)
I was tempted to touch the Piedfort to enjoy the double thickness, but, of course, I didn't do it :)
