      ⁠@@mohsinuddin7049yeah the rose gold modern ones are pretty shit to be honest, much rather have the gold old ones.
      The 22k purity isn’t really an issue as it’s know that a sovereign is 7.98g of 22k gold or 7.3224g of pure gold, now a new sovereign costs £414.50 and the gold value is worth £384.28 so it’s only £30 premium which gold can easily make in under a year so you’re guaranteed results by holding sovereigns, plus it’s CGT and VAT free in the U.K. and it’s a cheap way of getting fractional gold. For example a 1/4oz which is 7.776 grams then you pay £447.10, it’s value is £408.08 which is a premium of £39. So the £9 you save on a sovereign is easy and they’re easy to liquidate.

    I think in Europe the best option for stacking gold is the Gold Sovereign. You can buy and sell them anywhere and at a very small premium and even at spot price many times.(not semi's and proofs)
    Also another strong point is, you might score a very rare sov that the seller has no idea of the numismatic value...

      I’ve heard Is release don’t want them. If you ever had to sell, the online dealers will give you decent money for them. Such as they are selling for $565 and online dealers are giving $535. I wouldn’t say that’s much worse than buying a 1/4 oz gold eagle for $645 selling it for $588 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Where else could you transfer the value of your earnings? (Without being consumed)
    However slabbing a coin sort of 'locks' up its liquidity. You miught just as well get cheaper sovereigns (loose proof or bullion grade) for their gold content.
    I have a date run from 1860 - 1932, all very nice condition, none of them slabbed and my loose proof are all missing dates and duplicates from 1973 onwards, again all very nice 'specimen'.
    Also its worth mentioning the troy oz and fractional britannias, a bit more expensive for being 24ct, but an excellent substitute if you dont like the modern coppery post 2000 alloy.
    When you put gold coins into simple 2 × 2 slips (black ones look even better) and have them set 20 to an A4 page, having graded/slabbed coins seems daft in my opinion.

    Love my sovereigns but honestly I don't really see the premiums going to the moon on them purely because of scarcity.
    Scarcity is what drives premiums which is why even now the coins that command high premiums are the ones that were minted in lower numbers at specific mints.
    None of these vintage coins are being used as circulating currency, nobody is going to be mounting them in jewellery, nobody is melting them unless they are completely worn or bashed.
    In essence all or virtually all the vintage sovereigns that are around now will likely still be around and in the same condition in another 100 years from now.
