Congrats, I really like KC III in the Tudor crown. I have a couple in the mail which will complete my set of Jubilee, Memorial, and Coronation. Was lucky enough to score a SOTD as well. This was a special once in a lifetime run for historical sovereigns. It will be interesting to see how they appreciate in future years.
We both wanted the regular strike uncirculated example, but they only made it like a little over 1200 of them and they were sold out before we had a chance.

I am holding out for the 2023 sixpence, might even get one in gold.
I think they look really good and might pick up one myself.
In honor of the memory of Cpl. Michael E. Thompson
Something I noticed with the Sovereign’s, the fields have a somewhat watery, reflective surface. It’s actually really attractive. It’s hard to describe beyond that, you just have to see one and look at the reflection on the mirror to see, you’ll see what I’m saying.

Cool!
Brilliant. Love the coin. Where did you order from, pray tell.
Looks like the style of numerals used in the year is different than in past years.
He ordered them directly from the Royal Mint, they shipped F A S T !
