2022 Sovereign design revealed?

[AndrewSL76]

Anyone else have that strange old feeling, following the build up to a big release of feeling a bit strange. I just had another look at the three coin set I bought and they are sat on the desk next to me. Love them to bits, but it feels like I prefer the thrill of the chase! Haha!

I just had the email too ....  £685 for the single sovereign.

They could have asked for more, I suspect you’ll see them going for more on other platforms

Cheaper than the one sold at COTR yesterday... 😉

 

[SilverDrum]

After much deliberation and interest... mainly the gent that is @GoldDiggerDave😁....i have decided to list my colourized print for charity auction! For anyone that felt the RM release needed a little extra colour 😅 Even got a frame for it..

That's a great deal!

I had my Three grace's graded via @CoinsOfTheRealmAuctions with a combined offer from them and @ChrisSilver. Great service, and excellent communication throughout the process. Louise put my mind at ease during my first grading 😊

In my rush to get a second sovereign I mistook the 6 for a five and ordered one! Ah, well that's £106 more than I wanted to pay, but still a nice profit for Lawrence!

Must admit, I thought it was the same price as RM at first glance just because it ended in 85!

Has anyone had a perfect 5 Sovereign coin yet?

Mine has a few marks in the field around Queeny but the Shield side is fantastic. 

The double looks perfect.

The Full Sov looks stained around Queeny.

Half looks perfect.

Quarter is hard to even see 😂

Mine is perfect in my eyes.

And in my loupe!

There are imperfections galore if you go in any further, but that's all part of the charm. I could look at it close-up all day.

Looking at them that closely, I would say only my Quarter Sovereign has something annoying on it (a subtle mark a bit like on the edge of byb's five-sovereign, but less pronounced).

Thanks, the shield sides are all fine, my main concern, so I’m happy enough. Just wondered if a graded 5 Sov in a 70 grade would be ultra rare? I’m not sending mine in for grading.

That's exactly what I thought!  My mistake on this one.

Maybe, I've not heard about lots of perfect looking ones but you never know, we only get to heard about the problem coins maybe? I would imagine a fair few will be graded.

People who are grading their sovereigns, will you go for a first release label or not?

Just the brown NGC label for me it matches all my others

Not sure if I’ll get my set graded but if I do then first release would be my choice

Picture might be deceiving but it looks better in Bullion than Proof 😲
