I have a full set of subscription coins that I want to trade for Sovereigns or Half Sovereigns.
I have ALL the coins listed on this page of Maccas.
PM if interested :ok:

Aren't you going to keep them in your $1 collection?
(50mm & 40mm too big?)

Gee they are low mintage little beasties

Coincidentally coin 9 has a half sovereign.
(Coincidentally, coincidentally starts with coin ..... and ends in tally).

They are not part of my $1 collection, They are part of a fairly large NCLT collection that I am going to part with in order to get the sovs I need.
Just a change in direction for me with my collecting, That's all :good:

The 1997 also has a Canberra florin on it, you have to keep that one?

Those prices are a tad optimistic, IMO. I have maybe half of these, and got quite depressed last time I checked market value.

It is quite rare for an NCLT coin to appreciate rapidly , there are some exceptions but not many.
I didn't buy these with investment in mind , I simply liked the designs and as always "Had" to get them all :angel:
They are also nice big chunks of Silver and I have a few kilo's of these types of coins.
My collecting direction has changed lately and I will let these and many more NCLT coins go to new homes in pursuit of my other numismatic interests .

Yeah, I get that. But I seriously doubt anyone with Sovs is going to swap for NCLT. Probably better to put prices on them and turn the cash into Sovs later.

:agreed:
I will wait for the usual peak in silver spot prices that should occur in the next 3-4 weeks and eBay 40-50 of these coins.
Then wait until the Christmas fall in spot prices to get my sovs :ok:
