  1. It's going to start dipping next week, looking at the charts the probability is high.
  2. True but its an issue they should be trying to resolve. I have plenty of RM coins without milk spots, most of which are from the 1990's to 2000's since 2010 it has become more and more an issue on coins I have bought that were made by them. If they can produce coins without the process is good and they have purified the metal well enough, if they haven't they should be actively melting it for bullion only and trying again. Or at least be changing their quality control methods so that they can pick up issues early and remove coins to be remelted and replaced with a good minted coin for proof issues. The whole arms length check must go, how is it they can't bring a coin closer to their eyes in the same space of time to do a quality check, why arms length,
  3. I'm avoiding, will pick up a 2015 restrike over this.
  4. I zoomed in, its a lovely coin but there is a big milky spot. However, if you are OK with the milk spot enjoy your coin regardless of it's milky spot. I'm expecting mine to have some when it gets back from grading so I get to keep mine (outside of returns period now) and enjoy it milky spots or tarnish regardless.
  5. Oh how I would love them to increase the diameter of the 2oz and cut the thickness. I wish they had done this with the St George and the other coins, though I have my doubts they would do this.
  6. This apology is really only for the silent auction, it hasn't explained the other issue regarding the pricing of products that are not worth the money they are asking. Half way there don't back down now regarding this. Did you manage to speak with your local MP?
  7. I can understand that with the price of gold hitting new highs people are less likely to buy gold but still the price is technically quite cheap. I have a piedfort 2022 jubilee sovereign I'm trying to sell but no takers even pricing at a price where one recently sold in the past few weeks. I can't drop any further or it would consider selling at a loss.
  8. To those who don't know, there is one bidder who has apparently won 2 of these sets. One for £12k the other for £15k. I think he did the bid again, and both bids accepted as winning bids. He claims the winning bids are confirmed and that his basket/orders are now showing this up to date.
  9. I would hope they wouldn't have the same issues for the smaller mintage. The arms length quality check is a joke, it doesn't take much to bring the coin closer to the face and see the issues. An arms length check for quality is stupid as no one checks a coin at arms length especially if you want toncheck out the details of the fields and devices. The mint has to change. New leadership, reforms of quality checks, produce less, increase quality and make sure they are not working for a bottom line and they will increase reputation.
  10. My 2oz arrived, oh boy is it awful. Edge issues like alot of coins, marks on the obverse that looks like some sort of smudge mark, particles on the reverse and possible milk spots to boot. Send it back i will, demand a restrike I must.
  11. I'm away to find out, package arrives at around 10am today. Let's see the quality and if it needs to be returned to sender or if its a keeper.
  12. Well my bank account is now empty, but I would consider buying this, however I think I would look for an original.
  13. I think there is another Oliver song that might be relevant here regarding the mint which also could be put under the Royal Mint pricing investigation discussion forum discussion. It seems the Mint likes to pick our pockets or two. https://youtu.be/4X48mxMPm9Q?feature=shared
  14. I left a comment on the video, however I will say it again here. Go to the press, make it public hold them to account with some public shaming more than social media can do. Once it's in the papers people will take more notice especially the government who runs them, it seems today the government is more interested in the courts of public opinion like alot of things in life the press hold massive influence on alot of issues.
