Also the British Sovereign with a nominal value of a pound an an actual value of about £320 judging by ebay https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2334524...


I see the scams are out in force selling "gold (plated) sovereign".


Not really a scam if they tell you it's plated. Now if they sell it as a real one that's bad.


Because a Sov is actual currency you don't pay VAT and CGT doesn't apply.


Cool.
