Thinking of exchanging Sov's

[KevjustKev]

I'm never overly sure about prices, one of the many reasons why I like this site, is many know more than wot I does.

As the title, go these two that are hold no value to me other than the bullion price, I don't collect as such just hold for stacking, if you know what I mean.

One 1884 S full Sov

One 1895 M full Sov

What could be a fair price or a fair exchange. I do wish to keep the same weight.

Any help would be nice.

so you want to swap these out for the same weight gold?

the 1884 is common but some people might pay a slight premium for a YH. the dealers certainly want more for them but unless in very good grade they are essentially bullion.

the 1895M is an interesting coin as Marsh says it doesn't exist with a 1895 date on, they were all minted that year with a 1894 date. This is clearly wrong; the year is listed in Spink and you can find them to buy  easily enough. So probably bullion.

Bullion swap with a couple oz of silver then? However I did see the 84 at £596 to day one one of the sites
