Three nice Edward VII sovs. 
Original finish still in fairly good condition and visible on all three - 1903, 1907 and 1909.

1935 "Rockinghorse" crown.  Got this at the coin fair the other day.  Original mint finish is still in fairly good condition.

2020 Privy mark proof sovereign Not strictly pre-decimal, but this is my first proof coin, a 2020 privy mark proof sovereign with the mark next to the date on the reverse.  The shot is taken with an axial lighting box.
