So many interesting coins and meddles in this thread. The lira and the Saint-Gardens really appeal to me. Wonderful examples to us all.

Now, I will say that I saw a lot of great posts here in the "12 Days"
I did want to post along the way to comment but held back until tonight. Thanks for a fun thread.

So it's
Day 12
Yesterday I posted Diana and this morning I post The other Diana

My most valuable single coin I own.

1999 Gold 5 Pound Proof
Diana
Memorial of Lady Diana Spencer Princess of Wales
Coin number 2155 of 7500 minted


Twelve-Days-Of-Your-Favorite-Coins.
Twelve-Days-Of-Your-Favorite-Coins.

It is 22 carat gold which is .916 fine
It contains 1 troy oz. plus 5.49 grams of pure gold.
with a weight of 39.94 grams of which leaves 36.59 grams are pure gold and has a diameter of 38.61mm.

Regardless, of the intrinsic value of about $1400 to $1500 as I post, these were sold out immediately with some disgruntled Royal Mint subscribers being disappointed when they could not get one.
There have only been two for sale over the past year or so and they re-list over and over on ebay and they do not sell.
One seller wants $5,000.00 or best offer, and the other has a PF69 graded example and is asking a whopping $12,995.00.

Realistically, I think that this coin is probably capable of fetching around $3,000.
But hold it in your hand, and it isn't an easy coin to let it go.

Great Britain 1889 gold sovereign:
Twelve-Days-Of-Your-Favorite-Coins.
I have always admired Pistrucci's 'George & the Dragon' design, and I also have a soft spot for the much-criticized Jubilee portrait of Queen Victoria. Both are seen at their best on a reasonably high grade gold coin!

I love when a counterstamp circulates and wears. Like this 1919 LWC did for some time.
