Just you wait until next year. 

Great Engravers and Platinum Jubilee double whammy! 😳

[GoldDiggerDave]

I've returned more Matt SOTD sovereigns than I've kept due to the poor quality.  I'll order one and see how it stands up. 

[Fitness2all]

I'm staying out for this one.  GLTA

[TheMadKing]

Sold out already? 

[BackyardBullion]

Nope, says awaiting stock, that just means they haven't made them yet, 12th June is the mint date 

Just added one to basket, seems easy to buy if you want.

Not for me this one though so gonna give it a miss

[NewCoins]

Doesn't seem to be

Also has the 3 coin birthday Celebration set at £1,995.

I'll pass too . Nothing that special about the design to make me want to buy it.

£1,995 - £630 = £1,365.   £1,365 for a 1926 and 1957 Sovereign ?  Of course the 1926 is bound to be SA .

If the 2021 SOTD is £630, and the 1926 and 1957 sovereigns can be bought for around £400 each, then you are paying £565 for the presentation box and certificate!

Interestingly when the SOTD was originally publicised a few months ago, the price was £640 rather than the current £630.

Oh dear - don't be expecting a 70 grade as even the coin pictured appears to have a bit of an issue:

It's not just your eyes - in the presentation box there appears to be a HALF sovereign rather than a full sovereign!  Since 2009, the full sovereign does not have the streamer flying from St George's helmet (compare with the sovereign shown above).

Oh....good eyes.... picture showing proof half sovereign only, but in specification, it is mentioning a full sovereign...so confused.

Anyway, i will pass it, and save money for next year one.

£1995 for 3 sovereigns! 😂😂😂

I’ll risk a SOTD sovereign, but not holding my breath with the quality, we should start a competition to see who gets the least defects.  
 

Got 2 brexit sovereigns and they were total garbage.

Good to see the absence of Photoshopping in advertising!

Perhaps it is part of the design, like a privy mark.

Royal Mint quality control at work!

I've ordered mine from the Coin Connection so I am hoping it will have been carefully checked.

How can you tell how many are left? The moment I add one to the cart, it says I can’t add any more. 🤔

I searched on their website but they don’t seem to have it listed at all. Did you order when they had it for sale a couple months back?

They even have that Cousins in War 3-Sovereign set for £1,999.  Bullion Sovereigns too!!! 👀

Yes, it was a couple of months ago when I placed my order.  But if you are wanting one from them, I suggest you just contact them directly - if it is out of stock they will tell you.

Just open 48 congito tabs and add to basket in each. Give it a try!
