    That is a great sock money collection.
    And a cautionary tale of making sure your stack goes where you want it to go after your death.
    Good luck with those floorboards!

    The Twinstead Hoard is an interesting sovereign story. On the day of a metal detecting charity event gold sovereigns were found but only two were handed in . The next day during a further search with the farmer 135 Sovereigns were found in the same spot

      Yeah on that particular auction the auction house seemed to be the real winner there. A shame for whoever collected them presumably they made some sacrifices to acquire them all

    So for a quick sale, the finders potentially lost out on £10k - £15k extra if they'd did a tiny bit of research and sold them themselves.

      Even just going to the main online bullion dealers you'd surely get about spot for most and maybe slightly less for some of the more worn ones but yeah surely £350 and above off current spot price

    I would have thought that if the latest sovereign was 2018 within the same find, It would indicate that the it was a very recent stacker, who will undoubtedly will be seriously upset, if he or she is still alive.

    • @SovereignSaurus
      @SovereignSaurus  7 місяців тому +1

      Yeah the first image thumbnail of an article when I searched was the 5th portrait so I was even more curious then.... Maybe they passed away in 2018 or more recently and the finder has just bought their house and paid to have it cleared or similar I'll update If I can find further info

    • @SovereignSaurus
      @SovereignSaurus  7 місяців тому

      Not bad... They seem a little less popular than full sovs overall but if you can get them at a reasonable premium I don't see why not 👍🏼

      @harryzero1566 7 місяців тому

      ​@@SovereignSaurusDouble sovereigns are a very good addition to 1/2oz britannias, I've got a double proof 2002 shield (my absolute favourite), 150yrs of FA cup, DNA, 300 yrs bank of England, Peace Dove, George and dragon and some 2022 Queen Elizabeth Platinum Jubilee (that look very impressive on a greater surface area)
      These bigger than 1/4oz and full sovereign sized coin are a good substitute for the less affordable 1oz britannias and Quintuplet sovereigns.

    I thought someone found your coins but only 331, not enough to be yours. If someone finds 331,000 sovereigns, I’d be worried someone found your secret stash. 😝
