closed Head hunting sovereigns


Charliemouse

Recommended Posts

Looking to build my collection of full sovereign heads. Not trying to have every version or even every year (I'm not that rich), but a set of different heads would be nice.

They don't need to be anything special - reasonable bullion or (at best) uncirculated.

Heads that I'm looking for:

  • (Low priority) Pre-Victoria - I'm sure the prices are out of my range here
  • Victoria Jubilee head
  • (Lower priority) George V small head - not in a rush for this
  • QE2 portrait 1 (Gillick)
  • QE2 portrait 2 (Machin)
  • QE2 portrait 3 (Maklouf)

If anyone has any for sale, please let me know.

I forgot to mention, I have several 2022's that I am happy to include in swaps, should people desire.

Thank you everyone for your replies.  I will get to you all, but stay with me as (funnily enough) I've had a lot of responses, so I might be a while.

Great responses from everyone!!  Thank you.

In order to narrow down my choices a little, I am prioritising first or last years of each head.  It's not a fixed rule - if something cool comes up that's in the middle of a run, I'm not going to reject it.  But I have to narrow it down somehow.

These are the heads I'm still particularly looking for:

  • Victoria Jubilee head (1887,92) Bullion
  • QEII Decimal (1974,84) Bullion
  • QEII Maklouf (1985,97) Only proofs

Annoyingly, they didn't mint sovereigns in my birth year 😩. (No more clues as to when that might be.)
