Just ordered 3 two coin sets - the Bull, the Panther and the Beaufort….let’s see which arrives first! 😂

Even more interesting that the other sets are available too. 🤣

Anyone else interested to see that the 2 coin set is shipping within 2 weeks but the other coins in the series are shipping in late April/June. It will be interesting to see if you actually get it within 2 weeks though, considering other coins wait time is months rather than weeks.

1oz gold £2725, safe to say new level prices set for future releases. Be interested to know the 1/4 Oz price. About £725 -£750 sounds about right now? 

1oz silver sold out already

If it stands out like a sore thumb to the naked eye when wibbled about in the light, then yes I'd ask for a replacement.

 

Thanks for the reply, I will no doubt sleep on it and decide in the coming days 👍. 

Hi All, 

Hope you are all well.

Just had my sovereigns delivered, can't decide if this is worthy of a replacement? (See attached pics)

From looking at this with the naked eye, seems like missing frosting on the cheeks and some around the hair on King Charles (At different angles). I believe can just make them out in the pictures. 

Design looks really busy as others has said, first thoughts are that the platinum jubilee ones are nicer, what you think?

Thanks for your advice in advance.

Thank you all. Got given some interesting coins which looks like will need to do more research soon when time permits. 

Found similar  Here

Hi all,

Hope you had a great Xmas day.

Just been asked about some coins that look really old. Just wondering if anyone has any knowledge about them.

I've searched the internet for some answers and found similar.

Thanks

My five & four coin set - showing as dispatched !  

No tracking info or dispatched email as yet - hopefully to follow by the end of today 

Moved from "open orders" to "closed orders"
 

Not to be a **** and sounding negative because I really want you to have the coins, but did you order more than the restricted amount from your account? I think this might be the RM way of cancellation, dispatch and order went straight to closed order after a few minutes.

This happened to me with the SOTD sovereign.

Hope this is not the case.

I'm sure you meant 5 coin set, and I agree, the 5-coin set RRP was GBP4795 to my recollection. 

For random reference, a 2022 4-coin set all graded straight PF70s just sold for $2520 (incl BP) @ HA (would've fx'd to about GBP2170 at end of Oct).

 

Yes sorry, meant 5 coin set, updated post, thanks for letting me know.

Been doing some paper workings out and random number crunching and brain droppings in light of Tuesdays launch and drawing some comparisons, so thought i'd share them 

Sorry Paul to throw spanner in your works, (not too much though), I also did some digging by looking back and and I think the 5 set coin at first rrp was £4795 not £4920. Percent increase to price for new 5 set is 16.68%, not the 13.71% in my spreadsheet. So it looks like the 4 coin set has less of a increase than the 5 coin set. Thanks for your number crunching

In 2009, we bought 500 x proof quarter sovereigns direct from the RM.

They were a slight bargain at the time, being only about 10% more expensive than the bullion version.

I just discovered we sold our last one of them about a month ago!

😎

Sounds like you need a new sales team if it took them 13 years to sell 500 😎, just kidding.

Tbf margin must of been very good considering spot price increased🤣👍

The prices weren't that high, I'm pretty sure the 3 coin was in the 900's. Will have to dig out the invoices to check.

Yeah you are correct, I took this screenshot after the 1st hike.

Edit, prices above

Mintage reference for queens sets: 

Just now, Mtaybar said:

Low mintages as well..... anyone will be lucky to get anything to be honest 

I thought these were higher than previous mintages, thought the single sov's were in the 13k mark previously?

Sets looks to have increase too.

Just got this email too - I am wondering if a 2023 sovereign is round the corner or if this is in its place? 

I have no doubt there will be a 2023 sovereign. But for this release, I was working and talked myself out of getting the 2023 sovereign but as its dated 2022 I feel its a must buy now considering I got the Queens ones. 😭  

so a new sovereign release on 15th november with king charles, do we think it is a must buy now that its dated 2022 with king charles on there, if you previously bought the QE2 ones. 

Mintage figures are higher for all dominations too.

Many thanks for this. 

Can't seem to find a price/ value for this at the moment, will do more searching. 👍

I posted a similar one a few days ago, had it made into a bracelet.  Not sure how you would verify its age but they certainly existed.

Do you have a link or images please?

Jesus, that's a big jump of gold and silver price today?  😀 

Hi All,

This should be a coin of Marcus Aurelius, think from 171AD.

Reverse is winged victory. 

Was excited to get this, however I can't find a like for like online. 

Is this genuine?

Thanks
