    paulmerton got a reaction from SilverDrum in What is a handwritten signature? (Trial of the Pyx)   
    That is a super lame resolution though.
    Imagine buying a Fender Stratocaster at a huge premium because it says it's been hand signed by Eric Clapton, recieving one with a printed signature, and Eric expecting it to be all made up for by sending you a separate piece of paper with his handwritten signature on it.
    More generally, it's hugely disappointing that these trial of the pyx coins come with absolutely zero mention of what the trial even is. Previous releases have come in large folders that contains loads of information about the process.
    Also, for certain coins, the slabs don't even reveal how many coins were returned from the trial in total. The whole release has been very poorly thought through in my opinion.

    Rarer than the full sovereign, but same one-off 200 year anniversary design, and twice as thick of course.
    £1,100 plus postage.

    Yes, they were likely all minted as there were 1/10oz, 1/4oz, 1/2oz and 1oz 2023-dated ones in the trial piece auction.
    I don't think any of the bullion coins were sold directly by RM to the public. Where did you get yours from?

    paulmerton got a reaction from Minted in Ebay & Nectar - 50% Voucher Points Return   
    No, you can't use Nectar point vouchers to pay for anything in the coins category on eBay.
    Occasionally you might find a weird coin or mounted sovereign that is a different category.
