I agree with everyone else that the pick of the bunch is the £5. It is such a shame that the Jody Clark portrait will only be available in the annual set. It would be great to have one of these in gold, but I don’t want to go the expense of buying all of the others as part of the annual set. 

Modern Commemorative Coins from Chinese Mints. Arrived just before Christmas. I am diversifying into future potential large markets, like China and India. Can't afford the sought-after ancient / old Chinese coins. Indian ancients are attractive, but it is a closed market, i.e. local laws do not allow anything over 100 years old to leave the country.

Was 950 in queue, i got a gold £5 and 50p, silver 1,2 oz and silver 50p! 
was suprised to see gold still available.
i think both designs will do well in the years to come, especially the £5

I was exceedingly lucky and managed to snag the £5 Gold. Feeling quite smug 😁 after my dismal Gothic Crown attempt.

Okay, so I probably have the worst camera of any forum member but I got this recently and absolutely love it!

Exactly... everytime I've bought silver coins from the RM I think what condition are they going to be in 6 months,a year etc down the line..I turned direction and buy gold..when I can afford it..I've passed up some beautiful silver coins in the last few years just because I don't want to see my coins starting to spot....

Received my 2022 full sovereign from the Royal Mint complete with a foam piece to secure it so it didn't fall out the capsule. I must say it done the trick!
