First sovereign purchase of 2021 and my first (random) 'antique' one (bit of a clue in the picture where it came from). I hadn't any older than 10 years before this one.

Out of the two, I’ve only ever ordered from Sharps Pixley and they were very good. Even sent specific year Sovereigns for me when I asked.
I could highly recommend Sharps Pixley but I can’t comment on ATS as I’ve never used them.

Used both, both very reliable.  also nice to note you can purchase from them in person if your visiting London when things are less COVID'y
ATS is right next to the Savoy if you are staying there ! 

Sovereigns at £324.60 at Sharps Pixley, the cheapest I could find with delivery included.

Big shoutout to @BackyardBullionand @Spence098 for these fine additions to my ever-growing (always changing) stack!

Finally got the 2019 Britannia (thanks @GSTrading!). Now have all 3 oriental border Britannia’s 

Probably after new customers rather than us lot who keeping buying their bullion instead of their overpriced proofs 

Now down to £329 in today's paper. Again no sign of 329 or this code on the website though (pity, looks like phone or slip only). Code almost the same as the last time but now has a D on the end instead of a C - pity you couldn't go through the alphabet knocking a tenner off each time 😆

I collect interesting non official half sovereigns. Couldn’t resist this Australian Wreath half sov. 
 

Picked this sovereign up as its the 1st year of issue Broadley Effigy of Queen Lizzy 👑 

Couple of deliveries this week
 

My last purchase from the Coin Cabinet auction from a few months back. It took a while to reach me in Australia.
Lovely addition to my QEII proof sovereign date run. I will post a video to the Coin Struck channel when it’s complete, only one left!

Traded a whole batch of scrap silver I had been accumulating for these lovelies  
scrap silver has always been good for me especially when spot flies and the G:S ratio moves in favour of gold. 

Six very nice George V sovereigns from @SVcollector, thank you Chris. 

Another for my 2017 200th Anniversary Pistrucci heap

 

Got a couple of these but couldn’t resist this one at such a great price. Thank you @Sparrowlegs4!

Slowly I seemed to be getting sucked in to buying proofs. Still unsure what I’m doing, but finally starting to appreciate the difference between proof and bullion and so happy with this pair; love the Jersey coin.
Still feel I need to learn a lot about proofs and grading but it’s becoming more interesting as I collect.
