  1. As it’s an Isle Of Mann I would say it’s definitely real. If an older coin then unlikely
  2. Would be slightly higher than 22ct a possible fake sovereign but if you’re stacking for weight it wouldn’t matter. If you paid a few percent over spot it wouldn’t matter. If it’s a premium coin of a rare year etc and you have paid a hefty premium then there is a problem.
  3. If the coin measures and weighs correct then it’s solid gold and not plated. I have had 9ct and 18ct sovereign copies and none have measured correct. I’m surprised Atkinsons have not done this to easily rule out it being plated, 9ct or 18ct.
  4. I have this one which thinking of grading or selling, but haven’t graded before. Has some edge knocks.
  5. Chichester antiques fair had about half a dozen coin dealers last time it was on. Sellers had a mixture of Sovereigns, Gold Coins, proof coins, pre 20, world coins and silver bullion bars and coins. Mostly antiques and jewellery though as around 60 other traders.
  6. That 9ct mark is English mainly used from the 1880’s to 1900.
  7. I have had these same bars and was certain they were fake. As the edge looked like plating being peeled off and with sharp edges. After filling and testing they were all silver. I believe yours also to be genuine. They are just off poor quality with different thickness of edges throughout.
  8. I went to DCC to sell some crowns and showed both father and son five crowns I wanted to sell four were Victorian and a 1934 wreath all in EF / UNC condition. They took a glance at the 1934 and said it’s fake but offered £250 for all. I declined and sold the 1934 to another coin dealer who said he will get it graded and if it comes back as genuine he would pay 3k. The coin was genuine and 3k was paid up. I won’t be offering any more coins to the DCC again.
