[@LeedsLadLovesCoins]

As we speak I have the 1989 in my Hands (going for grading this month) and will be showing it on my next Video. I love the 2002 & 2017 but must admit I have a "crush" on all my coins.

In this video the 2017 has to be my favourite. I found mine raw from a pawnbroker online. When the package arrived the coin was in a ring box, my heart sank when I saw the coin wasn't even in a capsule but stuffed in the ring slot!!! Miraculously the coin survived with only a slight hint of a fingerptint on it, after a very gentle "clean" it looks fine now. My luck ran out with the 2016 Butler portrait. Found the 3 coin set, everything was going well (box, coa) until I had a look under a loupe... The half sov has a scuff on the obverse :( the full sov and quarter are fine though. Buying proof coins from online pawnbrokers is risky :) My soveriegn collection is also just about complete for what I wanted to achieve. A highlight along the way was finding an unc, George V, small head, 1931M. It's probably the only bullion coin I'd consider getting graded (perhaps the 1918 India mint also). Anyhoo... sorry to waffle on.

@@maksutov1 You are not Waffling Pal, simply describing what us searchers of Raw coins go through. I have my eye on a Raw Butler atm but need better shots before pulling "the plug". Keep hunting, if you are like me, its what keeps us going 😎

great sovereign

[@LeedsLadLovesCoins]

Which One?

[@ShinyPreciousMetals]

16:54 I have some of the Bullion special years but the 2017 proof is a wish list coin. Great video and collection.

@@ShinyPreciousMetals Keep Hunting 😎

[@dleetr]

Oh how funny I was just looking up pricing on the 2002 proof Sov. It's a fab thing.

[@LeedsLadLovesCoins]

One of my Favourites but my preference is the 2017 and 1989 (Going for grading this month)

[@dleetr]

@@LeedsLadLovesCoins Yeah, the '89 is a goodie and I need the 2017 too.

[@darkelf2674]

Really beautiful coins. Love Sovereigns. As someone quite new (8-10 months) into the hobby, I have some nice proof coins I would like to grade, and wonder if you could recommend an intermediary, or do you send direct to NGC?

[@LeedsLadLovesCoins]

If you live close to Leeds we could meet up otherwise I can point you in the right direction based on where in the Country you Live. Let me know

[@darkelf2674]

@@LeedsLadLovesCoins Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I’m in Lockerbie, South West Scotland, but would value some help/direction if you had any thoughts on a grading service I could use?

[@LeedsLadLovesCoins]

If you are on FaceBook then look up the "Numistacker's Gold, Silver and Sovereigns Collecting" page. It is run by Russell Franks who is the NGC Agent based in London, message him and let him know that Dave Caldwell (Leeds Lad Loves Coins) recommended him to you. Let me know how you get on
