Rare 1924SA and 1917

[n1k0s]

Hello to everyone 

 

i have noticed that bullionbypost has two particular sovereigns priced at around 10K GBP, the 1924 SA and 1917 london. 

i am really wondering, are there people (for example in here) who are willing to spend this amount of money on these two sovereigns?

Both of them are R3 and they are quite pricey coins. However, you'd have to be a very serious collector with enough spare cash that £10k wouldn't make a dint in the petty cash account. That said, I would love to have both of them.

COTR had a Edward C mint listed yesterday on the Buy it now price at over £8k that seems to have now sold

1917 London sov is a particularly tricky year. Mintage was not that low (1.000.000 if i m not mistaken) but most of them were sent away to the US to pAy a debt and melted down. But of course some (how many??) survived. It is worth now 10-15 grand because the known population is very low, but what if more pops up?

last but not least there are a lot of 1917 counterfeit sovs aRound from other mints, with the mint mark taken away to look like a London one.

to conclude, this is a coin i d buy ONLY from a very trusted source and still if i had 10k to invest that wouldnt be the one i would chase first
