I put my £5 sovereign in the wash & bloody things shrank

[Paul]

 any advice, guys?

Paul, at the bottom of the slab I believe that sometimes NGC leave a removable cap- under there it should expose a Presta type valve- get your bike pump out and pump to 120psi or around 8 Bar- hey presto- a 5 Pound Sovereign 😃

Having these Quarters Graded is a great way to inflate prices- nice coin! 👍

Have you tried a magnifying glass?

I find looking at high resolution .jpegs of quarter sovereigns more fulfilling than the actual coin itself, they look so much bigger in the photos

I hope you don’t do the same with the Una. Though saying that, it would make it rather rare...........

Tumble dryer = heat = expansion. Either that or place all of your other coins six foot further away when viewing so perspective sorts it out! 😁

Too true. Too many uppity folk in charge of the tellybox programming nowadays.

I reckon those NGC slabs should be black, would make that lovely little sov pop more
