Says shipping within 6 weeks hmm

I didn't refresh until about 8:36 to get the website down page, just wanted to check out their product pages as I got one from COTR - I expected to be 40,000 or something in the queue, 4700, surprised there isn't more to be honest. I'm going back to sleep

It's not available to the general public, like the secret menu they will offer you in the Chinese restaurant: you have to speak Welsh to the Royal Mint for them to offer you the link

My brother in Christ, you should have just awoken from a nap. Hurry, get in the queue now.

Apparently the Latin form of Charles is Carolus, I don't think he'd appreciate being called Carol haha

Very nice! I reserved a half, the full was too expensive for me. I didn't care about proofs at all, until I got a 1980 proof half from someone on the forum, it's developed a fire inside me. I probably would have just got a bullion, but since there's been no mention of bullion releases, I thought I'd get the proof, just in case they are only proof and BU releases

Especially since if you get a piedfort graded, the thickness is kind of lost, so it just looks like a sovereign. This will definitely be a design that a larger circumference will display splendidly

Last week I put up an exchange request with some small fractional for a 1/4 ounce coin. Today this arrived from @PapaLazarou 35th anniversary of the nugget series, "Golden Eagle" proof, mintage of 300. My photos don't do it justice, it's a gorgeous coin, very happy!

Because it can make £££

I would say that's because the harry potter coins aren't the best, and coloured is a niche market. You only have to look at how many listings here are sovereigns and how quickly they get snapped up to see how popular they are, add in the fact it's the second 2022 sovereign, and first with Charles, they'll sell out fast imo

The matte looks amazing, when I had my 2022 normal sov, I thought it looked amazing when it was angled in a way which didn't show the reflective surface, sort of like the matte, but it's so darn reflective normally, and with the colour I didn't like it very much. The matte though is gorgeous

You can get the türkiye cumhuriyeti bullion coin, which has the year of the Turkish republics birth, 1923 + years after it was minted, with Atatürk on. There is also the decorative Ziynet coin, which is thinner, and bigger, often used for decoration and for gifts, and you can get the older designs Darphane (Turkish state mint) also does commemorative coins

That is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. I am blinded by it's majesty, paralysed, dumstruck.

As someone who spent a year trying to get a ps5, hell no 😂

It is latin, Dei Gratia Rex, Fidei Defensor - Charles III, by the Grace of God, king and defender of the faith

Beautiful, I really hate the silver kangaroo, the quokka, koala, and kookaburra evolving designs are very nice. The unchanging silver kanga is not one for me.

Today I received this 1977 Falkland Islands fifty pence .925 proof coin from @JRR

That's very insightful, thank you

Out of my arse, because apparently I've misread the page out of excitement, assumed bullion was the numbers listed as it didn't say proof, yet had a BU section. My mistake, it was LEP

I just wanted to know if refreshing the page put you back 20,000 places, I'm sure such information wouldn't cause the person giving it to miss out on the very last sovereign, I imagine people have their own methods such as keeping the royal mint website open overnight, opening different pages in other tabs, or trying the queue on multiple different devices, none of which I would be bothered to do.

No they don't, that's true, but if there is 3000 bullion half sovereigns supposedly, which will easily get snapped up from their website within minutes, at a higher price than a reseller, then I'd assume they wouldn't bother sending such small portions out to places such as Chards/Atkinson's as the mintage numbers are low and it's a limited time, right? I could be wrong, but if I knew people would buy my small amount of boxes of chocolates directly from me within 30 minutes of release, I wouldn't bother sending them out to resellers. Edit: Ignore me I cant read 😁

So...You are confirming you will have some to sell and it isn't just a Royal mint direct release? 😎

Does anyone have any tips for queueing? At around 8:30 the website goes down whilst they "launch their newest product" but it doesn't seem to tell you that unless you are navigating a fresh page, so do you refresh/click on a new product around 8:30 to get this page to show up? Or do you just leave your browser until 9am and then refresh or...?
