I was given this by my father not long ago, I have done some research on the coin and it's real and in fairly good condition, but it was obviously turned into a ring, which is also 18c gold. Just wanted to know if the coin has been devalued by doing so and if not fused can this be reversed to just have the coin again... price estimates would be appreciated... thanks.

Chances are high that the coin will show evidence of mounting if you remove it.

Unless expection rare coin or old, there is no use in removing it from mount. As most collector would not expect to collect it as it would be considered dmg. Value would be melt to no more than melt +5%

I believe that this is a half sovereign rather than a sovereign.
Location of the BP is different.
Also sovereigns were generally not used for rings as they were way too big.
Watch your top knot
