To my Canadian friends, looking through a number of coins I found a 1913 C Gold Sovereign. WOW! The coin belongs to a friend that asked me to look through their collection of Canadians. A lot of silver also. I did ID the 1913 as a KM#20 and weigh in at 8.0 grams. A little above. My problem is trying to find a good picture of the mint mark to confirm. The coin I have I cannot see it.
Sorry for no Pics but, could someone show me the pic of the mint mark
Thanks.

Thanks Jake. Even with your good blow up, I still can't see a mint mark with a 7x Hastings Loupe. Next step for me is my local coin shop 72 miles.

If there is no mint mark, then it was minted in Great Britain rather than Canada or another Commonwealth country such as South Africa or Australia.

yup, different mint marks resemble where it was made, if I remember, "c" is Ottawa.
