    Would you include Coca Cola Sovereigns in your Sovereign collection or consign it to Coca Cola memorabilia?

    I'd always hoped to pick one up for sov bullion prices, never happened though!

    Out of the 2 options, I would consider it memorabilia/numi.

    I sold a spare one on my Daily Specials tread for $408 a fortnight ago. About the same price as a regular Sovereign.
    It sold pretty quick!

    I kinda treat it as a sovereign.

    Def a modern Coke Numismatic piece for coke fan or numismaticist. In my worLd this is a bullion coin but if you find a coke collecting gold bug or a room of them and you have some for sale.. well you just lucked out!

    I'd love one to go with my (very) small stash of Coca cola yoyo's.
    Obviously store it with, but i'd mentally consider it separate to the regular sovs.

    It has no face value and was never issued as currency so by my reckoning it is a gold token and is relegated to a Coca-Cola collectible/bullion.

    I don't see this issue escalating dramatically in value but it sure is nice to have one.

    I have to be honest. As a bit of a sovereign fanboy, I really dislike the Coke sovereign.

    Company merchandising, pure and simple.
