Excellent service from start to finish
Excellent service from start to finish. Tracking information was sent next day once the package was ready to go out. The coin I bought for my daughter is a beautiful (very small) coin. I'm glad I didn't hesitate to buy it, it quickly sold out.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your fantastic feedback Steven, this really was wonderful to read. The one-eighth sovereign is the smallest denomination in the sovereign family however this certainly does not detract from how incredibly beautiful this is and I am sure that this is certainly something that will be cherished by your daughter.
