  1. https://www.royalmint.com/aboutus/press-centre/royal-mint-reveal-celebratory-coronation-range-ahead-of-the-coronation-on-6-may/ All but the SOTD Sovereign.
  2. I'm pretty much in the same boat but I'm only interested in Sovs. I hope the proof collection release is ~3 months away for any chance to be able to afford one as well...
  3. I read this as, we have no chance of minting the Coronation Quintuple, Double, Sovereign, Half or Quarter proof coins as well as the SOTD Sovereign in time so we will release these at some point after gauging interest and deciding how many to produce as 17,500 was a bit OTT for the Memorial Sovereign.
  4. Currently 1,608 - hope it keeps going as I want to get a memorial sov...
  5. Many thanks for the heads up @ozzie456, first time buy so got £10 off on top so bagged one for under £400 👍
  6. As above, does anyone have a spare set or one they're happy to part with? Managed to find a slabbed coin but it didn't come with the accessories. Appreciate any help in completing the set, cheers.
  7. I've only been on TSF for a couple of years but already understand what stand-up people most on here are, my condolences.
  8. Found it... @BullionBuyerUK did do a group buy some time ago which is when I stocked up... I don't know if he'd be interested in another?
  9. These are T22s @morezone may have some in stock but I'm not certain he has any left;
  10. Whoa, back over £1,600 again...
  11. I'm assuming this is since the passing of QEII and the popularity of the Gillicks has shot up. The 1957, being the first Sov of her reign and the subtle difference of the milled edge with 169 grains rather than the standard 108, as such some may see this as rarer.
  12. These three were the ones I was after for the kids as was thinking Xmas last year but alas, they never went on-line.
  13. If it had been Mission to the Sun, Moon or Uranus I would have bitten already @Leonmarsh This is a very fair price if you can't get to the stores yourself...

    When I called to query my order (1oz Silver Proof continuity) they stated they don't expect them to start being dispatched until April.
  16. Sorry to be the party pooper as I'm interested in this discussion also 😞 https://www.thesilverforum.com/forum/40-personal-finance-other-investments/ Currently 1,584
  17. Personally, I agree with most of your thoughts here @Leonmarsh The next generation of gold buyers could be a much thinner heard, I'd go as far as to question what will the next generation be able to afford to buy/invest in to improve their lot or that of their kids and so on... If I'm fortunate enough, I don't plan to cash out. I'm hoping it's for my next generation but there's a catch, I'll only match what they can build up. Whilst at home, it's their best opportunity to do this without worrying about the decisions of food, warmth, shelter and making ends meet and to be brutally honest, I don't see them going it alone until I'm close to or hitting retirement myself due to the points you've highlighted. Back to the thread, £1,591 still a very heathy uptick since the weekend...
