The seymour panther set at a minimum is certainly available

Driven by profit no doubt, or to balance the books in the context of deteriorating circulation coinage. Or, is it a masterplan to reduce premiums on the secondary market ?

I think I just like the idea of owning part of it. I did think if we could convince 2000 tsf'ers to go for it, then tsf could "own" half a penny for 100k. Typing that, has convinced me that would be a hard sell.

I was actually thinking yesterday when seeing a 5kg gold gothic portrait, if I was minted, I would buy a stack and use them as plates. That's in no way disrespect for the coin, I just think it would be a nice touch on a massive dining table.

Nope. I will be giving it a miss. So that's release on Friday, Sunday and Monday ?

I would still have them. I am going to get 48 monks together for a raid.

I did notice the Platinum (metal) proof jubilee 50p was a limited presentation of 70, with a maximum mintage of 150...

I didn't realise. Oh dear.

Saw this, this morning. Any thoughts? I am tempted. https://showpiece.com/edward8-penny

That's only for the 2oz silver I believe ?

So, does anyone think there will be any kind of release on Monday morning?

The clock is ticking...

Which one(s)? You do realise, that would mean you be would probably get quite bored.

Yes. It looks that way. My order totals for both the quartered arms, and the portrait in 2oz, 5oz and 10oz silver.

That's some error.

Oh aye.

It is the same price.

It's probably worth adding the 5oz and 10oz look exactly the same. Looks likely to me there will be 250 extra 2oz silver portraits.

A day of two halves for me today. Morning call the the RM for the portrait. This afternoon, a positive covid test. Feel crappy 😞

The order made on the phone today, has finally appeared in open orders. There was speculation earlier in the thread whether they would increase the mintage. The 2oz looks like it might be? The quartered arms was LEP 3750 with maximum coin mintage of 4006 Not sure if it's a mistake or they have added another 250? Or maybe I am reading it wrong and it's exactly the same. Edit. The quartered arms in closed orders does also say 3750.

It's probably worth adding I have seen 2oz silver pf70s for around 1k. There is one currently on fleabay now. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2021-Royal-Mint-Great-Engravers-Gothic-Crown-5-Silver-Proof-2oz-Coin-PCGS-PR70-/185272026620?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0 If true, I think that's strong.

RM just rang. They have ordered my portrait of the 2oz, 5oz and 10oz. They are expecting it in 10 to 15 days apparently.

Has anyone who purchased the quartered arms, not received the email invitation to purchase the gothic portrait ? My assumption was everyone who purchased it got it. Has anyone who didn't get the email rang them and asked why ?

I have pmed you it
