Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. The one-eighth sovereign is the smallest denomination in the sovereign family, although I am sure that you will agree this certainly doesn't detract from how incredibly beautiful this coin is. I am really pleased to hear that you are happy with your purchase.
