I also wouldn't use them after my last experience with them.

This is already £4 below spot now! Get it before I change my mind 🤣

That was making light of the situation where RM was asking for extra money several months after selling the bars. I think most people following this thread got what I meant. I'd do anything for a free bunc

Okay, £1862+post (==spot+post) for whoever wants it! Get it bought/sold/whatever Or you can pay about £100 more for the same thing direct from Atkinsons.

Carded 2000 5 sovereign for £2270. Two in stock. https://atkinsonsbullion.com/gold/gold-coins/gold-sovereign-coins/pre-owned-2000-uk-quintuple-sovereign-gold-coin-carded

(or about 50 quid below spot if you go back in time a couple of days 🤣)

Anyone want it at 1880+post? That's just £16 over spot for the bar.

They've only just managed to say that they're facsimile signatures instead of handwritten ones, give them a while 🤣

Yes, they obscured them all a few days ago, including retrospectively to the existing listings. There are 8 of the Roosevelt and Churchill 1/4oz gold coins from the trial of the pyx (#1 of 8 sold in the US auction) plus one trial piece.

Not long before I posted here. It suggests they're a good buy if they go that quick!

All sold now.

Any freebie codes currently? Gotta grow the bunc stash somehow 🤣

1880+post?

Thanks for the offer, but I'd like a little bit more than spot for this one.

I think you're missing the fact that the 8 coins they're selling never went on public sale

Where else can you buy one?

https://www.royalmint.com/shop/ancient-historic/trial-of-the-pyx/2022-1-4-Ounce-Gold-Roosevelt-and-Churchill-UK-Bullion-Coin/ You know what to do

Any offers?

Offers welcome if they're not crazy

I wonder if anyone has already quickly placed 23 separate orders for a silver Britannia

If you got the Sharps Pixley email just now... their 23rd customer of the day will win a sovereign!

A boxed set consisting of an exquisite 2019 Gibraltar reverse proof full sovereign (the first to be struck in Rome, hence the R mint mark) and a matching plaster impression of the design. Issue limit of 750, with box and papers. £495 plus postage. Reverse: Obverse:

It amazes me that the die polishing is still done by hand. At least, for now it is!

Modern proof dies are all laser cut these days, so the details in tiny coins doesn't impress me as much as it would have done on older coins. Even 1oz coins have some fun tiny details on them that act as security features, some of which I only realised existed recently. With tiny coins, I can't imagine there being much more to it than scaling down the design of a larger coin, changing some text, and hitting print. The dies for smaller coins are much faster to etch, and polishing the fields is also so much quicker than with larger coins. The scope for profit seems much greater when the manufacturing time is lessened. Maybe this is what the RM have realised with this glut of 1/40oz coins they're churning out
