[QUOTE="Herberto, post: 26644945, member: 74222"]Hi, My uncle showed me some of his British Sovereign coins. However, one of his coins – minted in 1925 under the reign of George V – is awkwardly weird: It has a very thick rim. Look here, the first and second coins are of Edward VII and Victoria. But the third coin is of George V and it has a THICK RIM: [ATTACH=full]1699615[/ATTACH] And here is the suspected coin: [ATTACH=full]1699613[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1699614[/ATTACH] The weight is 8,01 grams. My uncle says he bought it from a reputable place and insists it is not fake, and that the thick rim was just a novelty in design and not a sign of fake. Can anyone with deep knowledge tell me whether it is fake or not? Thank you so much.[/QUOTE]
