Some of you might not have seen this, it's a shame that in 2014 the year they made this they made 100's if not 1000's of sovereigns wrong.   They mixed up the dies and struck sovereigns with a bullion obverse and proof reverse die, and they continued to do this well into 2015 without picking up on this massive oversight  😳      I've got examples of this and will up load them later.

Is this before or after the "ping" test?

Thank you very much for this video. You can't fault the work of these skilled craftsmen, whatever may be said about the other aspects of the Mint.
