1928 and 1931 Kruger Coins

[TRogers]

I have inherited 2 gold Kruger Coins (1928 and 1931) all sealed by Official Grading Service. Does anyone know what the value would be for these?

[Leonmarsh]

Are they not British sovereigns with South Afican mintage rather than krugerand

I have no idea if the grades for these coins are accurate, I have no experience of this company.
However, if the grades do stand up, these are a nice pair of South African Pretoria branch mint gold sovereigns and, although common, should sell for a nice premium above bullion coins, especially if they were transferred to NGC or PCGS slabs.

Thank you for all the responses. I dont have much info on the coins but this is the front from the grading company.

As nice South africa minted sovereigns which have been graded by NGC nice coins sure someone will want them on here if you want to offload 

[TRogers]

Its very much if the price is right. Ideally wanted to get it graded by a coin specialist but due to lock down that is impossible at the moment.

It is graded already I wouldn't bother with a coin speicliast as they will more than likely want to buy it and you would have to question their objectivity 

There are load of people on here we'll versed on sovs, I personally don't have don't like them! 

I imagine you would be looking north of 400.00 but again I'm not a Sov expert 

Maybe auction on here? Starting bid of 400? It will find its price

No need, they have been graded by one of the two world leading grading companies. Any other UK coin specialist would give you their opinion on the UK scale, and would certainly be EF - Unc.

To get an idea on value, you can do a search on ebay and coin auction sites for sold coins, or have a look on dealers price lists if you can find any.

Here is a screenshot of the NGC census for this branch mint series. As you can see, they are not uncommon in your grades but nice nonetheless.
