Really interesting I have two questions about the size of the real sovereign (with Queen Elizabeth) 2205 mm is the diameter, but what is the constructive tolerance? +/-001 mm? (for example) I can't find any norm or something like thatbrSame question for the thickness (152 mm)plus, WHERE should I measure the thickness? Thank you very much

I have an old friend that's 76 years old and he's wanting to sell me like 18 I guess RGS gold medallions that have a lot of weight to them that were all engraved an given to him for his work as a chemist in the 1860's named TB Percyhe has a hand book with his notes in it and a personal letter written by from the Queenbut I've done research for the passed week and can't find anything on this guy or what these might be worth???🤔
Comment from : Michael Johnson

Can you explain to me please, after saying that the mint never made sovererigns in 1918, you compare the fake with an original that also has a fake year of 1918 Did I misunderstand something? also, if the gold content is more, it would be softer to my understanding, so marks where the coin has been in a pendant holder or scratched on the surface would be understandable Also, if the gold content is more, surely it would be worth more than an original coin in the working system I'm not questioning your professionalism, I am just trying to understand please?

I have a 1918 gold sovereign that was in with my grandfathers masala and discharge papers from the war It is sharp and the right colour but doesn’t have a mint mark Is it likely to be a fake, just out of curiosity as I wouldn’t part with it
Comment from : Judith Bradley

I recently came across one of these gold sovereign coins but it was from 1925, I cant tell if its real or fake I also dont know what mint mark I'm supposed to be looking for
Comment from : Kiran Cox

Thought you said that they were not made in 18 ???
Comment from : Keith Middlebrook

I have one from 1925 that is the reddish-gold colour and very fine details as per the “real’ one in your video It is mounted within an “India” gold necklace with gold chain of the same colour It has one additional small rectangular indentation just to the left of George’s neck (in the space below the chin) I’ve always been curious about its value
Comment from : galefraney

Hello Lawrence, after seeing your video, I was quite concern with one of my sovereigns It’s date 1918 C, but the color is more yellow than my other sovereigns Should I be concerned? It was purchased from a reputable dealer from United States
Comment from : c17360

I bid on and won a coin collection from an estate this year Included were 3 fake gold coins I was not allowed to take them out of holders or have them looked at by a 3rd party Still made money on the collection because the price of silver and gold went up this year It was a bummer finding out 3 were fakes Still trying to find out what how to sell all the foreign coins in estate!

When I was a teenager in the sixties, my dad was a helicopter pilot in Qatar The locals had no trust in the Gulf Rupee currency and kept their savings in gold The sovereign was a well known coin, but difficult to get enough of the real thing to satisfy the huge demand (They also liked ten-tolas bars) A chap in Switzerland started making counterfeit sovereigns but with the correct or even higher gold content He sold these in bulk to dealers in the Gulf and as a result they were everywhere He probably made a premium of pennies over the gold price, which in those days was $35/ozt People only cared about the gold content Over the years I bought back and shipped back to UK thousands of these coins which I sold mostly to to pawnbrokers who made them into rings and necklaces From memory, I paid a little over £3 each in Dohaand sold for about £37s 6d Eventually a shipment of 200 coins got stopped by HM Customs who had them analysed I acted dumb and said I thought they were the real thing They kept the coins but gave them to Mocatta & Goldsmid to melt down for scrap I ended up losing only a few pounds as the gold scrap content was so high They told me not to do it again, lol
