<p>[QUOTE=&quot;spock1k, post: 554585, member: 7043&quot;]well the coin wasnt made in india by the royal mint.&nbsp; althought the coin may have been made in india.&nbsp; Sovereign or guineas as they are called here (quite wrongly of course) are struck by the millions every year for ceremonial purposes and this coins looks to me to be very much like that.&nbsp; the coins were very easy to detect earlier but now they are improving the quality to such an extent that even reputed jewelers are fooled (they sell most of the gold coins here) </p><p><br /></p><p>even the original collector had no less than 5 and a half remade sovereigns in their collection.&nbsp; from what i see so far i am not convinced and many a counterfeit coin from india has made it into ngc slabs.&nbsp; of course i may also be wrong.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>now these coin dealers or makers are not fooling anyone.&nbsp; people come to buy gold coins from them rather than original sovereigns so they get what they want and everyone is happy the odd person who does collect them as coins ends up really unhappy[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
