2013 Delhi Sovereign

Distributed by selected Indian retailers and the Royal Mint, the 2013 Indian sovereign is proving to be a hit amongst world sovereign and modern gold coin collectors. They’ve been tough to find outside the impenetrable Indian market, and on the odd occasion that a few pieces have slipped out, they have sold quickly and strongly. This popular issue has been sold out at the Royal Mint at £800 each (about AU$1,600 including GST), and are now only available on the secondary market, from where I have sourced this example photographed above. Very scarce, with a reported mintage of only 50,000 pieces.
