    Am the same I just checked 
    I ordered 3 set and one full 
    only the full (x3)is showing on orders 
    just have to see 
    but if I recall it was backyard that said ignore everything else as long as you have Email order confirmation so that’s good enough for me 
    I think this was pretty much the same for the graces for me and everything was fine

    You don’t want it too soon…. 
    The warehouse pickers will have spent Monday celebrating, and recreating the tries, from the rugby win over Figi.  Sovereign boxes, especially the five coin sets, would have been spin passed into the packing area and Dai England tackled regularly as he carried various sets to the packing area.  That’ll ensure the mints quoter of PR68s is met.
    Tuesday’s about nursing hangovers in the Principality whilst doing as little as possible.  Most boxes are thrown as it’s easier than walking with pounding heads.  This gives us the PR69s as Dai England is being thrown regular hospital passes by the Taffs. 
    Wednesday’s a good day in Llantrisant, the lads will be on fine form - sober, rested and reflective.  The warehouse will be an industrious place as they seek to make up for lost time and quietly discuss a possible team to face Australia in light of serious selection issues.  Most people getting a delivery on Thursday or Friday will get a PR 70.  But a couple of PR60s may creep in - that’ll be because Dai England won’t be able to resist mentioning that we’ve just beaten the Ozzies.

    No, I see the royal coat of arms of the UK, re-designed by Timothy Noad for 2022 on a gold proof sovereign. Which has a long history of being adopted and adapted for the sovereign.
    Edit: Post cleaned. In reflection I apologise to the respectable members of this forum for my uncalled-for outburst in this thread. Im like a moth to the flame and unable to control myself. What @CollectorNo1does in the pockets of his tracksuit bottoms is none of my business.

    yes but it won't last. There will always be a few people with money and lust who missed the retail sale.

    A bit of light hearted banter.  A shame we can't have a little joke now and again without someone getting offended.

    Woman logic,
    Buying something that in all likelihood be worth double or more its price in less than five years = BAD   Buy an umpteeth pair of shoes, worn once, that will reside in the wardrobe until donated to a charity = PERFECTLY OK

    Well only went for the 1/2 sov...got to checkout and said 'Payment not authorised ' tried again...same message...checked my account 2 x £315 paid to the RM??? Still showed in my cart so completely confused..Rang the RM..they couldnt see any payments,rang my bank asked why 2 payments had gone out? They blamed the RM...After going back n forth have to wait to see if payments go through then wait for a refund for one payment. RM said they have reserved and put one aside for me  until the confusion is sorted..Not holding my breath on that,just have to wait n hope....not a great day....cest la vie..

    Hello everyone!
    Brand new user to this forum. I have only been stacking / collecting since July this year, so still relatively new to the scene in general.
    I have so far aquired a range of both bullion and proof coins and I'm really enjoying this as a hobby and an investment. Going to go for a consecutive years run of bullion silver coins (Britannias, Maples, Krugerands, Eagles, Kangaroos, Phillharmonics) starting from 2020 onwards and will be picking up the occasional proof coin and other bars / rounds when I can. I would have loved to have gotten in on the 2oz silver Queen's Beasts series, but kind of late to the scene and have only got the completer coin (which as a standalone coin is still very nice). I did however manage to get all the Black Flag series coins from the Perth Mint which I think are amazing looking coins.
    I found this forum via Backyard Bullion and I'm looking to use it as source of information and for occasional trading.
    Glad to be here,
    Deathce.

    Haha, I was given a 1966 Gold Sovereign to me by my dad, but so far I have only splashed out on a 2020 Gold Sovereign, a 2020 1/10oz Gold Britannia and a 2020 1/4oz Gold Britanntia. I just need to work on getting the versions for the 2021's now. Have even dabbled with platinum now with the 1/10oz Platiunum Britannia's for 2020 and 2021. So I can see how easy it would be for me to go down that road if my budget more allowed for it! 💸
