I got nothing Monday but enjoyed the chase, it was like a free buy in to a poker tournament. Didn’t lose anything.

@Mtaybar for all our P ing and moaning we do thrive off it.  The day you don’t have to queue, they have what you want and it comes the next day, will be the day you don’t want it😂😂😂😂

No:
21.45 g/cc Platinum Pt 78 22.4 g/cc Iridium Ir 77 22.6 g/cc Osmium Os 76 But close.
I'm not sure whether there are some denser recently discovered, or short-lived elements.
 

That's going to be the coin to have in the future.

They’re probably making them out the back 🤓

i may sell it and corner the market buying up all the under-loved and unappreciated Diversity/Crystal maze gold 50ps, what could possibly go wrong  

I have just had the same conversation with my OH. It was only 2.5 years ago, I was picking up single sovs and a few oz's of silver bullion  

Also the coin to have right now😁

My 2oz gold 'plain-edge' & order reference has appeared in my Open orders  Goody goody !  
Hopefully the RM additional +£255 "exclusivity tax" will be worth it in the long run
£5,250 RRP for it   
Jeez, makes you think how far your stacking journey has come, was only five years or so ago, i was buying 1/10's krugerrands 
 

The Queen's Beasts 2019 The Yale 1 oz Gold Bullion Coin is back in stock at the RM, and quite a lot cheaper than anywhere else that has it in stock!

I have been looking forward to getting my hands on this, massive thank you to @SilverDrum for coming up with this.  This all started out as some banter on the 2022 sovereign launch and some guys were talking about buying the £95 limited edition print from the Royal Mint.  Then @SilverDrum took a screen shot and printed this out, it gave me a massive laugh and I loved the lateral thinking.   The chat is going backwards and forward  then Silverdrum posts a picture with him having coloured it in......By this time a nearly pooped a lung out with laughter.   (you had to be in the chat).   
Silverdrum put this up for auction and there were some very kind bids from @AndrewSL76 @Darr3nG  @Paul @dicker @LukeStacker all top guys, sorry if I missed anyone else who bid or donated.   I won this auction with a bid of £55 and a pledge of £20.   I increased the final amount to £95.01 as  to me it's worth more than the Royal Mint offering.......And it came un damaged and in pristine condition! 😂😂😂   
It looks fantastic mate! 
 

I added the 2oz gold to my basket before buying all the silver ones instead, and it was still in stock after I bought those. I was tempted, but lol 5k! Did I miss a trick there   

Im glad that Im an inspiration to any younger generation!

You're an example to any young stacker. Do not give the money on what is not seen, save and buy heavy metals with density over 10.50!

Today

It was offered to Platinum Mint Marque members down over, i believe 
https://www.royalmint.com/mintmarque/consumer/
he told me he had a little sway with my case despite the spend not being up to scratch, but because i had purchased the other 2oz gold Engravers in the series 
So hopefully stand me in good stead again in March to with any luck 

I'm unashamed to say that if i had of got anything, which I didn't, I was gonna flip it and use the proceeds to buy gold bullion lol 
Well done to anyone who got stuff today

So what are the mintages of the 2 Oz gold after all is said and done?
Was this the plain or grained edge?

😭😭 cant quit now I suppose. 
£4995 I believe 

nothing, have rejoined the queue

Just a word to everyone out there involved in this morning's blood bath.
Lots of emotions will be flying around regarding queue systems, getting on in the first place and then even buying!
For those lucky few that got the 2 oz gold now comes the even harder bit, actually deciding what to do with it and if you are after profit how to best make that profit. 
FOMO and feeling bad for not buying the 2 oz gold is natural but it will pass - this was basically a lottery this morning. I estimated about a 2% chance of getting a gold and 5 oz silver and about 20% of getting a 2 oz silver.
Try to not feel bad if you missed out, its only money and the green eyed monster can be a bad path to fall down.
Look after yourselves all!

Due to Covid they can only have so many people in the web site at once

great Im in 😆
