Yes this book is definitely on my reading list, I think I will read it next after I finish reading up about the history of gold and money.

The more I learn the more prepared I am to make valued decisions about how best to proceed. If we can't learn from history we don't learn a thing. Needless to say I keep getting taken down various rabbit holes.

I had the same issue not been able to get 1970 &1971 Sovereign, so I went for these same weight as the Sovereign, 2 Rand 

Same weight in gold but usually a little bit cheaper than a sovereign ...
