    Thanks  Still none have been listed to eBay for flipping/quick profits.  I wonder when one will surface 
    As the original 1839 coin has a mintage of 400, as this is half the amount is should be worth double what the original sells for 
    So as one sold for £340,000 in 2017, it is reasonable to assume this is now worth £680,000 - i'm not being greedy but will be happy with £675,000 if there are any takers 🤣🤣🤣

    I think this coin also has a worldwide appeal outside of the UK given its aesthetics which adds to to its Pro's as opposed to comapred to the likes of snowman or gruffalo recent issues - it is not just limited to UK market given the long history and prices previous Unas have attained at auction over the past 100+ years

    Interesting in the past 24 hours, not ONE of the gold UNA & LION coins have been listed to eBay by an opportunist flipper/quick profit takers.  A few of the silver proofs are listed however
    Think Ive got good feelings long term for this one, once series is over. 205 mintage, is suitably low to always be rare (supply vs demand) 
    Great we have a chance to own what is recognised as one the most beautiful gold coins of all time with
    180+ years of history between issues. 
    Worldwide appeal to any gold collector - a beautiful gold coin is a beautiful gold coin
    As numistacker said in his vids, once these are in a serious collection. I think this will be a keeper forever, not to see the light of day again unless totally necessary   Needs some spare cash, the krugerrands & bullion sovereigns will go before Una
    Maybe no so much a winner for the silver IMO, with potential spotting issues & high initial price etc. It hasn't been an instant sell out, but can see it being a sell out before the weekend, with those with smaller pockets wanting their piece of una
    Anyone else have thoughts or opinions on this

    Thanks Chris - i was thinking the same. History is there with the design.  225 mintage is very low. Once the ebay flippers are gone, five or ten years down the line.  I think most will be firmly ensconced in collections never to see the light of day 
    Just the £2,000oz im trying to stomach - i could get in my credit card and 0.5% cashback so would only be £3980 makes it seem a little cheaper !

    I still think the premium for 'proof' is too much. Unless the mintage figures are properly low, then as an investment you're going to struggle (IMHO). When you can get a two oz Lion for 60.00 at the moment, I think I would rather have three lions that one Una and Lion - if that makes sense. Much nicer to hold, much easier to sell, much more likely to continue going up in price. The Una is still at 80% reserved and the price could not be as high as you would want in the secondary market. I hope everyone who buys it does well though!!
    Look at this cheeky so and so: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Royal-Mint-Una-and-the-Lion-2oz-Silver-Proof-5-Coin/372853667314?hash=item56cfcf75f2:g:QroAAOSw0Udd26JS
    Wouldn't be the first time I was totally wrong!!!
