Selling a AUSTRALIA Sovereign 1868

Quite bad condition but a real piece to fill your type collection if you don't want to pay so much for a expensive one.

360 Pounds shipped. Let me know if overpriced.

Indeed it is assuming it is as knocked about as you say.

I would be interested in seeing better pictures.

I have found that sovereign prices are way too high in Germany as a rule anyway.

That's some sales pitch.  I think you are perhaps £60-80 overpriced on the pictures you have provided, the rim-dents seem quite noticeable. 

Closer pictures might help people to see the good points on the coin

Here are some more pictures.

Ouch, I'd give you £250 for it, but others might give around £270

Ouch...looking for higher offers, thanks

Thanks for offering it here.  I am really keen to get one of these old Sydney sovereigns ... but I think you may be better sticking it up on eBay and seeing if you can get to £300 by auction, then net of fees you will have made a bit more than the bullion price...

good luck. 

I am expecting to pay about £400+ for one in a better condition...but they are not easy to find!

Thanks for the info. Looks like I overpaid for this one

Dealers are going to overcharge in general, unless you have a good relationship with them.  I recently paid almost as much as that for one from a dealer after a slight reduction in price even though I have seen the occasional better condition one in auction for less.

If only it didn't have those gouges it might have still been worth buying at above bullion but together with the edges...
