1904 sov bargain

[mr-dead]

Bargain to be grabbed here unless last minute bidding spoils it -

These usually go for around £350.

 

If its a friendly ebay seller with some creative package labelling you could also avoid import duty

I think them prices are a bit OTT the one i brought today (L 1912) is in really good condition as it was on a mens gold chain with a load of others, and going by them prices im £150 up lol, you can ask what ever price you want doesn't mean you will sell it for that

Doesn't look much like a bargain to me. A 1904 London mint Sov has a mintage of 10,041,000. Which is one of the higher mintages of any Sovereign

 

I got a 1909 Melbourne Mint Sov for £195, with a mintage of only 3,029,538

doesnt look like a bargain?

 

A full sov currently at £153 sounds like a good deal to me

[mr-dead]

Auction ended at £153.90 for a full sov

I would of had to of asked them first if it was a half or full sovereign, as it doesn't say anything about weight or size

 

If it tuns out to be a half it's not so great 

[HighlandTiger]

ooops my bad. Need to put my glasses on. I thought it said £250. Didn't realise it was dollars 

 

Kman has a good point though. Also, the postage to the UK could be anything, so there is that cost to add in. (I've seen USA to UK postage costs of £20 quite often).

 

But if it is a full sov and genuine, then a bargain has been had by someone

 

 

To make up for my error, here is an auction to watch. finishing in a few hours. A 2005 half sov currently at £95

Check out their feedback not very good at all. But you are covered with eBay. I have had two in the last week that tried to rip me off. One has paid up the other has left eBay altogether so waiting for paypal to refund the £210., worst thing was it was a full sovereign with a S mint mark, barstewards!

 

I hope it is real for you.
