[Augustus1]

so guys , as gold is high now , were is a good / safe place to sell this coin , tried here no luck  ! i don't want to blow my brains entirely on it but consider i won't get my 2.5 K purchase price back! ( under stand i probably have not held it long enough but i ant getting any younger 😁) i know of a few dealer who are around here  like atkinsons  etc, any other suggestions ( not keen on e bay unless its face to face , wont send it anywhere)

if you can't sell it here it might be that it's overpriced, I haven't looked into your specific coin. The forum has been a bit slow buying some of my coins as well at the moment so might be that there isn't enough cash going around at the moment.

I usually find the forum ends up being the best place to get a reasonable price, Ebay is slightly more but with fees and scammers it's usually not worth it.

The forum is a great place to buy coins. I doubt if it's as good a place to sell thanks to all these charitable members selling pristine proofs at spot (and especially when spot is low)

Hi Dean

I think your best bet will be here for getting the best overall price.  

Proofs can be tricky, but maybe if you drop the price a little or invite offers you might get somewhere near a price you are looking for.

Dealers often don’t offer that much more than bullion for some proofs, hence the forum is good.

All the best

think there is lots of competition here for sales and i agree (SeverinDigsSovereigns) its a good place to buy not necessary to sell!, i did lower the price and to include SD, thing is as i said i don't want to blow my brains with it but i think it been over 2 K limits it market in this financial climate, and will just put it back in the safe its just i collected the quarter ounce set and bought this on a whim, wish i had bought the completer proof!😁

i may give it another go here ,  i would wait for 80% or free sellers fee and only do face to face on e bay.

Unfortunately the proof market has taken a nosedive at the moment. You could probably get spot from a dealer or on here. For more you will need to list privately on eBay etc and hope to find someone who's really keen for that coin for their collection.

I think the Royal Mint has spammed its fanbase a might too much recently with proof upon proof release and all got a bit boring. I think you'd take a chunky hit selling the coin atm. Have you thought about trading it for something you'd prefer, sovs, silver ect? A chance of holding onto more of the coins original value possibly that way.

hi thanks , no i had not considered trading! only as i am now knocking 70 i think its time to" cash in", i mean its probably not the best time to sell? and yes it would have been to expensive when i bought it from the mint, and yes i think they have flooded the proof market too , also i don't think i have not held it long enough, i mean i have full sovereigns that i have had for years  that stand me at £150 so may be i move them instead for the gain.

Whatever way you choose I wish you all the best.

I saw that Greyhound going for walkies.  Looked a bit malnourished to me.
