    I just came for the comments :p

    But just to chime in as hell, this is the internet....

    Full Sov = 7.980g actual weight 22k (physical)

    Full Sov = 7.31468g when converting to 24k weight (not physical weight due to being 22k in the first instance)

    &

    Half Sov = 3.990g actual weight 22k (physical)

    Half Sov = 3.657234g when converting to 24k weight (not physical weight due to being 22k in the first instance)

    If weighing at the converted weight on scales, your scales are either a: amazeballs or b: the bezel weights 0.0g :confused:

    Just did a search for 3.6 g half sovereign came up with auction results from June 2024 Burstow and Hewitt “ A Queen Victoria 1897 gold half sovereign coin, 3.6g”.

    Also checked a UK 1884 Reverse shield that I had it weighs 3.9g?

    seems that UK SOVs are all over the place in weights...not sure how much 'pints' that these smelters had when making these SOVs...

    thanks guys for your input, much appreciated.

    as long as coins are XRFed or SIGMA checked…I think you have no issues in selling…as I don’t believe GB SOVs are weight-checked properly as I hv held full SOVs with hit-and-miss weights
