<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 5347669, member: 101855&quot;]That is a very impressive set. I have liked British gold since I started collecting British coins seven years ago. I don&#039;t have all of the Victoria heads, and I have an old George III head on a half sovereign.</p><p><br /></p><p>The most impressive piece I have from this era is an Edward VII Matte Proof two pound. I bought this piece when I first trying to get a least one gold coin from each British soveriegn who issued them.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ll never complete that collection. This piece is graded Matte Proof - 63. Aside from a shiny spot on Edward&#039;s brow, I can&#039;t see anything wrong with it.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1226535[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1226536[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>My Edward VII sovereign is in this &quot;short&quot; 1902 coronation set. In 1902 one could buy this set, which had all of the coins up the the sovereign. The &quot;long&quot; set added the two and five pound pieces. Since I have the two pound coin, I have tried to get the five pound coin, but the auction prices have been through the roof.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1226537[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1226539[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
