Interesting. As a coin collector it makes my ears bleed when I hear anybody say they're going to melt down a sovereign.

Sorry I don't agree with that last shop, as what they want is to get you in the shop and then make you an offer maybe low as most will take it because your there.. I would tell them that I have been calling and getting offers with no problems, so stay away from that shop!

£225 🤣🤣🤣🤣 That is actually ludacris. About 60% of spot. I thought CC price was low at £340. Good advice from the guy saying take £390.

Just go to a reputable bullion dealer. Any sovereign should be IRO £350 to £370.

A useful video as most people concentrate on acquisition rather than disposal. The video will hopefully prove people to consider disposal more.

Did the Croydon dealer say they were going to send them away to be melted (at 7.18)? Is this permissable?

A local Pawnbroker very near retirement who we ( my friend and I ) was candid about the prices.. “I buy 10% under spot; I sell 10% over spot”… So you may be put off by the “spread” but this is normal to an average retailer.. In the times of trouble ( inflation) The demand for Sovereigns and the like will be so much that the margin will shrink ( just like a stock) High volumes, low margins!. So take the 10% over on the chin- You will not regret it ever

Today i had a look around the Birmingham ones. They seem to be offering around £365. I paid £390 last year for my full 1860. They sell at reasonable prices too.

It will change depending on the price. I know here in the U.S. generally if you go to a reputable place they will pay spot or above spot for things like an AGE.

Any gold you can get as close to spot price as possible is a good investment. Gold sovereigns are the best value bullion coins

@@StruanRobertson29mainly the gold that gets melted is the stuff they cannot sell as it is. I know that seems obvious, but that's my point, if you sell a proof or nice bullion coin at spot value to a retailer they will sell it according to its desirability. They tend not to even offer back some of the extra value that you paid for it. The satisfaction the seller might get, is when they walk away, leaving the retailer wistfully disappointed.
