Very nice. How would that be carried? Key ring? Fob chain? Nipple ring? It appears to have the same gold value of 3 sovereigns before taking into account its fabrication.

I just placed 3 Sovs inside the case and there's room for at least one or two more.
Not sure how people carry these Sovereign holders.

That is REALLY nice. I have a sterling silver single case similar in design to yours and a double (full sov and half sov side by side) that is silver plated but they pale into insignificance compared to yours. I have grown out of penis envy and now enjoy sovereign (and associated goodies) envy.
