Can I take 2 X 1919 please

Yes only some via the forum this week though

Sign me up for one of those

A sheet of 20 for £1540 too

https://tavexbullion.co.uk/frequently-asked-questions/ Tavex also allow collection if you pay first Hatton garden Metals are another in London. I've used both for online orders but I'm sure others will chip in who are in London more frequently than me too

Not usual in UK. Haven't heard of any doing this. Just pay the price of the coins.

What if there were another change of monarch before the end of 2027 or maybe 2028 by the time the sets done? 🤔

One thing you could do when considering a purchase is to image search for the coin... Eg for that slabbed thing @Orpster saw... 1906 gold sovereign and look through a bunch of photos. Sometimes lighting or camera quality can make it tricky but looking at multiple photos from the reputable online dealers or on PCGS or NGC websites and essentially playing spot the difference some become very obvious. Then other details like is the monarch correct for the date or the mintmark and date combination. Some members have many stats commited to memory over time but simply looking at a mintage list or again searching the specific coin you are considering can help. 👍🏼

So today's spot is a smidge over £17.50.... Halfway between £15 and £20 Feel free to justify answers in the comments if you want to, anonymous otherwise

Anyone seen the ¼ Oz TB unicorn lower than about £450 at Tavex or Atkinson's?

£156

£151 £152 £153

Definitely a bit of me

Curious what the average orders are at RM for the customers buying fractional coins... Also A hypothetical example but could their 1g bar be more popular than any 1 Oz coin due to the following 100 1g bars sell 90 1 Oz gold Brits 2023 sell 90 1 Oz gold Brits 2024 sell 90 1 ox gold king Arthur's sell Then the 1g bar sold more than any other product but more 1 Oz gold coins sold than 1g bars

Are people running out of money? Don't think so. Just shared this in another thread UK credit and lending figures miss forecasts as consumers increase savings https://www.sharecast.com/news/news-and-announcements--/uk-mortgage-approvalslendingcredit--15997132.html Consumer confidence is also on the rise if you look at the data from GFK https://www.gfk.com/press/consumer-confidence-up-three-points-to-19-in-january In terms of bullion, dealer spreads have been narrower recently so buying here Vs dealers isn't necessarily saving anything plus the associated risks of dealing with individuals. Gold price is relatively high, I'd speculate that some buyers anticipate it will fall and are waiting or overbought in recent times anticipating a larger rise. Perhaps stackers who still have personal debt or mortgages are prioritising paying some of this down before their fixed terms end or since they have ended? As for silver not sure

Thanks, none of the dates I need but @shawy2510 message me if there is a 1887, 58, 49 or 48 available

Biological matter and a quick wink to the lady behind the desk 😉

Presumably they are saying it is at buyers risk even though they will try and get a refund if RM doesn't refund then they're not going to take the hit? So assuming RM do their part there is no risk?

1914s please will PM

@jamesyh I think was selling some shield half sovs on a listing?

@JamesH ?

Doesn't look bad to me and in my eyes it is to be expected on bullion but it is disappointing when you're buying some 'higher premium' bullion. One of the reasons I generally avoid premiums above best value unless I can see the item first like I say is a shame

It looks better on that photo

I shared some quite detailed photos of some Melbourne and Perth sovs yesterday here though they're 1924
