Hello Everyone, I can use some help :)

A friend that has passed away has given me this coin.

He did not say much in his letter to me about the coin at all.

Here are some photosof the front and back:

Looks like an English Gold Sovereign. Nice thing to own. :smile

 

Hello Flaco,

I'm sure many will be along shortly to identify the coin. De Orc or Aiden or many many others will know what it is right away.

Sorry to hear of your loss ! I'm sure he was a good friend to leave you such a nice coin to remember him by.

Welcome to the group and best wishes!

Thanks for the information everyone, and thank for the condolences.

The man who gave me this coin was one of the best internet scamfighters I have ever met, I'll keep this to remember him by.

He sent this to me just a few days before he died.

 

Flaco,it is a very nice British Sovereign.England last issued circulating coins in early 1707.Welcome aboard.

Aidan.
