It's not often I can afford sovereigns, but this one was going too cheap to let go. You know how it is.

Uncirculated 1915 Sydney mint Half Sovereign. Isn't it cute?

New years present to meself. 1884 Melbourne Shield Sovereign. I think I'm going to have to collect all types. I can see this taking a while.

When wanting an expensive coin, I have discovered the bread and water diet, as used by other members, to be quite effective.
The hunger pains eventually go away. Lol.

Birthday present to self.

Type 2 Sydney Mint 1866 gold/silver 141 years old. The silver alloy appears brighter than the gold/copper sovs. I can't believe how shiny it is for something 141 years old. That's why I love these coins, they don't seem to tone.
