Foe

If you took paypal for it for a £21,500 item, you would need your head examining
PayPal payment received, Parcel sent, dispute open, "item not as described", £21,500 debited from your paypal and no Una.  left to jump through automated hoops for them to still side with the buyer. No thanks
I would be wanting a cleared BACS transfer or two palm fulls of Queens heads in my mitt to part with it. 

Absolutely, this is a cracking profit to be had off one coin, it would be my best profit to date on anything ive bought or sold over the years wheeling and dealing all manner of items
How high can it go? I don't know? is it really worth £18k? i don't know.  Has this guy over paid buying it? or got him a bargain that will be a lot higher in years to come if next to none come to market?
All is supply vs demand
A nice £12-£14k profit would certainly add a nice few extra 10-11oz gold for FREE to the stack average
To be totally fair, i still don't think eBay is best yardstick for value, it will be the first few that sell through the traditional Big Boy specialist coin auctions , where the benchmark level is set via the hammer price.  The historical records of price and will not disappear to be forgotten like eBay completed sales results disappear after a few months. 
The guide price/estimate will be helped by what known eBay sales have been for thus far.  I dont think Mr Fat Cat City Millionaire Financier Coin Collector is sat on eBay in his boxers on Boxing Day looking to save £1k on the cheapest Gold Una 
I would also feel a little daunted selling such a valuable item through eBay auction, given its open to exploitation by one sided buyer listing policies.  It would have to be a cash deal in person

Thank you,

I have tried to take new shots today with a better light in order to highlight the quintessence of this beauty
I have a special feeling with this coin  

 

I find the whole Signed For/ Special Delivery choice tiresome. 
Signed For- feels like you are essentially crossing your fingers and hope it gets there- which  is unacceptable- and it’s unforgivable that they wouldn’t compensate for say a £20 silver coin as they would for say, a book worth a similar value- essentially they are saying, we cannot be trusted.
Special Delivery- is far too expensive/ uneconomical for sending any precious metal/ collectible or banknote worth £100 or less- but i have to concede, it’s a marvellous service and I have confidence in it, although I have to acknowledge that I’ve never had to test out the compensation element of the service, thank goodness. 
I think the Royal Mail are missing a trick- they would surely attract custom by offering a product in between the two- a tracked and insured service that compensates whatever’s inside the parcel like the guaranteed next day Special Delivery- but one that gets to its destination in say, 4 days to a week- and priced accordingly, costing say a half, to two thirds of the current SD postage
For me, this would take a lot of the worry out of posting valuables- and then there would be a true choice of postage method and make crossing of fingers a thing of the past. 
 

Also on eBay is a 2016 Peter Rabbit 50p for £8.8 million  - I am really regretting not buying this one when it was issued!

Picked this up from ebay after seeing the thread by @MickB. Nice bit of history and a cool presentation box.

I have to say the phoenix error is the star.

Was just about to buy half sov yesterday. Glad I didn't. It's only fractional but it's already 4 quid cheaper 😃

Haha wait till it goes below £1000 😆

Zum Glück habe ich mit der 5oz Version nichts am Hut. Viel viel zu teuer.
Habe mir 10 Stück von der 1oz gegönnt und bin mehr als Happy.

Let us know when you place your order.🤑

Lets say "Just a tad inefficient with customer relations and delivery timescales"  ! 🥴

Received today some beautiful 90% Kennedy halves courtesy of @1817Karl

I got a call about 45 minutes after I placed my order, Hayden I think he said he was called, absolutely amazing salesman.
I felt like I was in "The Wolf of Wall Street" when DiCaprio sells about a million penny stocks over the phone, and the guy on the other end felt like he was getting bargain stocks in this mega company that turned out to be a shed.

Oh yes! It has arrived, 198 years old and only 438,000 minted

It's because I spoke proper England Init

Where was you😀, I remember when there was only about 8 -10 of us on here getting full Sovereigns for £165, mostly £170-£185 we were unhappy when the spot price went over £850 Toz 

It works now 

It works now 

Got this little beauty on the way, George IV crown 438,000 mintage
