Cheers mynki for the link it looked a nice one. Gives me some idea as to what they can go for and with the number of bids there must be some demand for that coin. That is another option me putting it on ebay. i was considering other coin auctions http://www.baldwin.co.uk/ and www.londoncoins.co.uk Hopefully you have more luck bidding next time those last second snipers can be a real pain in the derrier! cheers

Thanks Ozjohn for the latest catalog prices. I think I will heed your advice and hang onto it for the moment. rgds

Hi, thanks for all of your swift and helpful replies. Looking at the Coin Yearbook 2013 it gives the price guide\Mintage for the coin I posted as: Mintage 20013 F £500, VF £1100 and EF £4000 As "Benny who" stated in his post one sold at Baldwins for £840 (Condition Cleaned, scuffed with surface marks and hairlines, otherwise good fine and very rare) in the link below: https://www.numisbids.com/n.php?p=lot&sid=716&lot=2065 I think I will hang fire on the melting down route until I do some more investigating. Once again thanks for your assistance it was much appreciated. rgds

Hello dear readers, I would be very grateful if somebody could offer some kind of grading for my coin or whether it looks like it would only be worth Gold scrap value? I know its hard to judge from photo's but any feedback would be a great The coin is 1879 Victoria Young Head St George Gold Sovereign - London Mint. If it does appear to be of an acceptable standard to sell would it be worth having it officially graded to maximize the selling potential or just sell it as it is? Thank you kindly for any help. regards
