Last time i looked at a slabbed coin on the internet what a shock i got. A ten pack of unused slabs with preprinted labels! The idea is i believe to put cleaned coins that wouldn't get the desired grade in the slabs to sell on. Real coins real slabs and still a real con.

Now the biggest coin I own! 
 

Big dog...

... and a load of bull (OK, Ox)

Today i bought...and recieved...
 
2x 1/2 sovereigns (1x1982 and 1x1983)
 
 

Might even find an old pair of speedos from @LawrenceChards last visit to the rm!

Have you seen some of the obverse depictions of the queen on the commonwealth coins?
There are some truly terrible obverse designs out there. Just look at the 2021 maple OMG.
And of course there will be folk out there that don't like the queen or any type of royalty on any coin from any nation.
 

Today I Recieved...
 
2 x Morgan Silver Dollars (1921) 0.900 silver from the mint in San Fransisco.
 
 

I've bought some slabs to complete sets. sometines a high grade sometimes a lower grade then pop the slab and into a cap then into presentation cases. 
I know some will think this totally mad but i like collecting semi-numi older and modern coins. 
@Alun does some lovely presentation cases for collectors like myself.

I was under the impression that fine silver is most at risk of milk spots at 999.9 but with sterling silver or 500 silver milk spotting is negligible.

With the release of the new tiger lunars coming up my next couple of months will be really expensive. Thanks for the kind offer though.

I'm only looking at gold as a protection of wealth.  My moto is spend money whilst you can enjoy it!
Gold purchases stop me buying jelly babies and motorcycle parts n bikes! I enjoy 'em all. 
If i reach retirement them I'll sell bits n pieces for holidays and boob jobs for the 20 year-old girlfriend! 
Enjoy life!

The rm lunar series has been a disaster from the start. Quality control,  milk spots and design of some !

I'm in Edinburgh on sunday for a job. I'll Make time to go and have a snoop about see if they want to sell some of it!!!

Live for today, worry about the future tomorrow.

Take a look at some of the quality mints from around the world. There will almost certainly something to interest you.
The only release i know of is the WW Gothic Crown.

Buy if you like it but like you said the rm is a huge gamble. 
I'm a ramblin not a gamblin man!

Like most coins could be! Pt at a sensible price i'd go for it. Only problem is the market for Pt coins  at the moment is tiny and are the premiums responsible?

I think by definition a sovereign should be 22ct. But I'm open to the design being used on other coins such as the £20 coin.

Set up bogus e-bay accounts then bid big on these items and just disappear again use 1 account to bid on as many of this items in 1 swoop. Hehehehe.
