I'm not sure if I'm a member of the #silvergoldstackers group any more since it's been so long that I've posted but I logged into PeakD a minute ago and saw the latest post by welshstacker@welshstacker and it reminded me that I have quite recently inherited a few old gold coins so I thought I'd share them here.

I'll start off with the smallest but oldest coin. A 1893 half sovereign weighing almost 4 grams (3.66g gold).

Next up is a 1907 Soveriegn weigning 8g (7.34g gold)

Finally we have a 1913 Sovereign.

I believe the soveriegn coins were worth £1 back when they were minted. Melt value today is around £373 each which is pretty impressive.

Prior to getting this coins I had only been able to afford to stack a bit of silver but these coins make a lovely addition to my collection and I just love holding them in my hand.

Good as gold :-)
