Can anyone tell me how much a Victorian Sovereign is worth?

Answer 1

No one can really answer that as each one differs based on age and condition.

You could try looking at http://www.goldsovereigns.co.uk/forsale.html though

Answer 2

Well without a date and Queen Victoria issuing Sovereigns from 1938-1901 it would really be a job to give prices for each date and grade. There seems to be about 8 that are rare or scarce and have a book value higher then just bullion value, in grade very fine. Most list for the value of the gold in the coin in grade very fine. Looks like in very fine or extra fine the prices vary from $120 for late date ones to $275 for early dated ones. This is a book value and a lot depends on the price of gold at the time. Most dealers have in their ads prices subject to change without notice and to call for today's price. Of course the rare ones like the 1841 that books for $5,500 in Extra fine keep there value even if gold goes down in price. You really need to see a coin dealer if you are selling or buying. The Sovereign of course has a higher price usually in the UK than here in the States. That is not to say there are not collectors of British coins here. I go for the coppers before 1815 for they could have been used by this countries founding fathers. I forgot to look in World Coin News and I found a 1871 in very fine for $160, 1892 in extra fine/almost uncirculated $155. Hope this helps.
