These three 1917’s are Perth Branch Mint Sovereigns which was a 4 million mintage and therefore, not rare but are rated as ‘scarce’ by Marsh but they aren’t a rarity. If you had received x3 London 1917’s I would be concerned! I would say that Baird test all they receive so they are likely all ok. Hard to tell from the photos, but the first might have been polished?

2oz Completer received today from the Royal Mint . Lovely coin.

Interesting article, thanks for sharing.

Lovely Silver IOM Set, not a lot to not like, the classic Machin Portrait of Her Majesty, nicely frosted depictions of the national symbols of the IOM and lovely presentation. Spoilt only by the tacky banknote COA with a dodgy Portrait of the Queen. Thanks to @morezone

I think I have a 1986 in a 70- l’ll have to check- I sent this year date Sov & Half for grading and one got a 70 the other a 69 but can’t remember off the top of my head which way around!

Bargain. Send it to NGC and have it conserved by NCS or find someone competent to conserve it here in the U.K. if you don’t want to grade it. Not sure if you took the photos through the capsule or of the coin without capsule but for me, all that is peppering that coin is crud and detritus- I see no major faults in the fields or on the frosted areas and the clue is the same crud covering all of the surface of the coin. If you’re having second thoughts, PM me and I’ll give you some profit on top of what you paid.

What Half do you need?

Seen on Numista, think its the Machin- I'll take the set if it remains available please.

What is the Obverse portrait on the coins please? The Chards site doesn't mention what it is.

Lovely Victoria Jubilee Set. Thanks @ilovesilverireallydo

Fab idea 😃

If available could I take this please?

Surprisingly, these are still available- I think these are priced well, aren't they?

Please get in touch for further info/ if you would like to make an offer
