I'm very sure this isn't a genuine sovereign in that it weighs 5 grams and is magnetic, but was wondering if its a genuine replica or an attempt at a fake. I know similar have been listed as tokens. Diameter is consistent witha genuine sovereign at 22mm.
Without even looking at the page on here for the genuine coin, for comparison,
this is clearly a fake - the portrait is nothing like that on a real coin. Probably lots of
other details wrong about it also, but yes the portrait is the giveaway for me.
How could anyone be fooled by this - they would have to be a complete moron, like with an IQ of under 50.
I love coins. Especially silver, gold and anything really old.

I suppose the only way someone can be fooled by this is to scam people online by stealing a photo of a genuine coin and putting that as there “listing” then anyone fooled by this such as low price, new seller etc and then send them the “coin” above.
