Got my coin from ash on here. Well happy with it its one ive been after for my 2017 sovereign collection.

Apologies as ever for the photo, my camera is not up to scratch and just doesn't show this beauty off properly. Absolutely stunning in hand and I think it's even nicer than the Pistrucci SotD, I could spend hours playing with the light on this one  Also my first purchase from @TheCoinConnection and service and comms have been absolutely top notch, delighted! Also lovely low CoA number

Have you run a magnet over the shilling? Looks a bit cast to me...

Yes I did a slide test and slides off as it should with silver do you recommend I do further testing?

Not a great success but George's first appearance on a coin. Won cheaply on eBay and @Numistacker secured the FR designation 

 

I like how the blue label goes with the coat of arms of Zeeland 

[Captdeano]

Wow what a set really very envious?

If you’re thinking of getting one you won’t be disappointed. I have one and they make the coins look even more amazing. I’m actually considering getting another and doing 2, as the 10oz QB’s are such good value for money.

[SILVERFINGER]

My mate bought one of those boxes for the 2 oz beasts and they look stonking, those 2 coins are lovely too, any chance we can see the otherside of the 4 generations one not seen one of those before.

I like those Dutch restrikes, I would of been concerned that NGC would mark the condition down as they are made to look old and authentic, but gladly they have not.

Nothing too spectacula – just the standard £25 proof obverse with the first releases hologram 

(dot in the middle is an artefact from NGC photography)

 

and for completeness:

Thankyou, I was wondering if the generations coin had several monarchs heads on it for some reason.

That would have been nice, or maybe not looking at the Royal Wedding coins; interesting is the denomination:

5 Sov £5

 

 

5 oz gold £10

 

 

1/4 oz gold £25

[SILVERFINGER]

I know Sovereigns are 22ct gold instead of 24ct like the bullion coins, are all sovereigns like that and are they all rose gold, thanks for the above , they look really nice.

[terakris]

They are not as rosey as that in real life, the photos always come out really tinted for some reason. 

[sovereignsteve]

Finally completed my 5 oz ATB set; this last one has taken some getting at a reasonable price.

Also some Morgan dollars to keep the Acadia ATB company on the Atlantic crossing
