George V Canadian sovereign ?

Is this coin mega hard to get a hold of ?

No you can put your fingers round it...it isn't that big!  Sorry!

Noice.

yeah they're pretty hard to get, which is strange because most of them aren't worth that much. Since they never really circulated in Canada, maybe most of them were kept, who knows. You'll definitely have trouble finding a 1916 though, with less than 50 known

So Ben you reckon my arthritic hands would manage it ? Maybe I will use a brand new Stanley knife blade to pick it up ?

Seriously though how can I tell the difference from one to any other KGV sovereign ? :S

The Canadian ones have a little 'C' mintmark above the date

Cool ! I will have to keep an eye out in future when I have some Moolah spare that is, if I have all of the KGV silver it's only fair I should have one gold piece ha

I would sure have trouble holding it.....my hands would be shaking as I did my best Homer Simpson ecstacy impression "mmmmmmm soverign <drooool>"

I was like that when I bought Robert's half sovereign !

Robert?

An Italian Numista member - very nice guy ! Sent me the cash to buy him a 1/2 sovereign in a swap for a couple of coins from him.
