[1918 India Gold Sovereign, real or fake? Please help]

Hi and thanks for your reply,

I have got a few books which I have read but I am still new to collecting so my eye won't be as good as someone who has been collecting for years. I have had a good look at it and it does look genuine to me, but I could of missed something and like I said, wanted a second opinion. 

Thanks

Hi all,

Thanks for your welcome and your replys! 

I don't have the coin yet as I have just won the auction today from eBay. The seller states that is weights 7.9g, I have looked at the photos of original ones and it looks ok, but like I said I would just like to get a second opinion from a trained eye. 

 

Any more ore help will be much appreciated!
