    BOOLIAN reacted to paulmerton in Royal Mint proofs constant quality control issues - official petition?   
    Just a warning for anyone who is about to buy one of the two 5-coin coronation sovereign sets that are in stock.... I asked that they check this half sovereign again, as surely there's no way this can be deemed acceptable? Someone must have not looked at it properly, right?
    Nope.
    They have confirmed that the whole set meets their quality standard and it has been returned to stock!

    I'm quite certain that you'll be fine.
    I don't think there has ever been a specified carpet-ban on swastikas (or any other Nazi imagery) on YouTube videos/thumbnails, but just a pretty random algorithm that was/is inconsistent, and even if there was the video would just be removed rather than the channel banned. In general, you really have to go some way to get your YouTube channel outright banned. This probably doesn't apply to you but the only known limitation is that the video will probably be demonetised - so you won't be able to put ads on it.
    The fact that there are plenty of videos with swastikas in them, varying from games to documentaries, and the fact that this is an educational video is pretty much all the confirmation you need that your account won't be banned.

    I feel like you severely underestimate how much it costs to have an app developed & the annoyance/effort of having to switch from one forum platform to another to enable the transition - especially finding plugin alternatives etc

    Definitely not worth the effort considering the site is fine

    It also probably worth mentioning that on most modern phones you can set custom bookmarks to defined sites with the rest of your apps

    Thanks to @GoldDiggerDave for the massive haul of coins I got back from NGC.  Most of them I've photographed before, but some of them went straight from Royal Mint to the graders.
    Here are a couple of the new ones:
    2023 Coronation 1oz Gold Proof


    2023 Coronation SOTD Sovereign

    Agreed - if that is actually on the coin then that has to go back.

    I take a pretty hardline stance with proofs. If they're not perfect then they're going back.

    Because if you get something you don't like the look of you just return it for an exchange or a refund. It's not exactly a high-risk gamble and some of the resale value (or cultural significance) is far more than you'll ever get from just bullion alone.

    I bought a couple extra 50p Piedfort, 5£ crown, and a 1/4 oz gold to sell in US. No bites at all.  It’s like trying to sell a case of Covid- am I just being impatient or is the bloom already off the rose?

    I believe the coins in blister packs are only sold by TRM (at least initially). I never see them elsewhere apart from private sale.
    No mint limit on the bullion Coronation Sovereigns.

    This is the double. I have no words. This coin has obviously been mishandled before being chucked in a capsule without checking it.

    BOOLIAN reacted to Paul in 2023 proof sovereigns   
    We need to bookmark and keep some of the doubters, moaners and naysayers comments and revisit them in 5,10 and 50 years time. 
    Holding onto any of these recent releases platinum jubilee, memorial or the coronation  or even better holding the full set for the long term
    I don't see any downside risk personally as gold keeps creeping slowly higher with time
    What releases have we got to look forward to now ongoing ?? Not very much really, maybe the next great engravers coin next year and that's it

    BOOLIAN got a reaction from GreatCoins4U in 2023 proof sovereigns   
    I purchased a proof this morning and have refunded it this afternoon. Decided that I'm not too bothered about it as I have the SOTD and know that I'll be buying a few bullion versions too. I might pick up a slabbed proof if the prices later in the year still reflect the current demand.
