  1. Thanks peeps. Not sure what we're going to do with it. Might be worth hanging on to. Also, I don't do facebook...
  2. Sounds about right - mum's friend had a valuation done, which just said "coin" £160. Dealer I just spoke to on the phone said 8g 22ct gold sov is £170, and as you say, it's not worth anything for the date, just bullion value. Thank you all so much for your time on this. Just wanted to make sure mum wasn't getting ripped off anywhere as she's got precious little anyway.
  3. Think I need to get it in somewhere for valuation then... Thanks to all!
  4. Thanks Nordle - wierd your post vanished...I presume that means it;s worth more then!
  5. Thanks guys. I'm afraid I don't have a weight. May pop into town later to see if it can be valued, and will ask for the weight.
  6. We've recently moved my 75 year old mum into a new flat, and unpacking, discovered a 1900 half sovereign, which appears to be a London mint (there's no obvious mint mark). However, what I have noticed under the magnifying glass, is a pair of very small marks to the right of the date, that I've not seen on any other half sov photos. Is this just a glitch in the minting process or does it actually mean anything?
