As per the thread title. I've read that Australian mints are more valuable, but perhaps I am misinformed. Are there any specific year and/or mint sequences which add additional value above the condition of the coins?
Any Indian or Canadian Sovereigns for less than 20% above spot Would like an opinion on just how rare South African Sovs are in Australia. Usually quite difficult to source however I managed to pick up six on Wednesday.
I would think the India mints would be a fraction more valuable based on scarcity. Don't know about SA mints but I noted your reference to the '8' luck for Asian buyers - is this just anecdotal or do they collect the '8' sovereigns in preference/ When I was in Thailand I didn't find a lot of interest in AU $200 coins btw. Has anyone views on sovereigns in SE Asia?
No evidence at all that Asians collect lucky 8 Sovs . I know that they regard 8, 88, 18, 28, 118 and 128 and 228 as lucky numbers.
No interest in sovereigns here. I suppose we like our gold to be as pure as possible (and also sovereigns get taxed).
