Back in January I found what I thought was a once in my life time find. A 1932 gold 10 Guilder coin. This morning I went out and found a few junk earrings and a couple coins. Then I came across this signal that reminded me of the gold earring I found the other day. I thought what the heck. What I saw in the scoop was yet another gold coin. A 1911 gold Sovereign! Relatively in the same area as the previous coin. Now I'm wondering how these coins got there. Thanks for looking and good luck out there!

That's a real beauty, congrats on finding what everyone is looking for and making the Banner with it.
Here is a web site on identifying Sovereigns. click on the mint marks header to find out where your coin was minted.

OK you asked, those are mine. They fell out of my thong when I was walking on the beach. Please send them home as soon as you can.

Sweet coin. They may have gotten there by someone going thru a divorce. I have heard of that happening before. Either the guy pitches them to keep from having to split them or the woman pitches them in spite.
