Total is currently at £1425
Seems to have stalled a bit on donations. It would be amazing to get to £1500 at least!
The bars are hopefully going to be back with me by the end of next week and then we can do the draw at some point in week commencing 12th April!

UPDATE - 25th March 2022
OK, we have the bars back from the assay office!
So, they will be winging their way around the country over the next few weeks and we will then be in a position to name a date for the draw to happen.
In the meantime I want to get the entries rolling in so that every few days we can make a nice big donation to The Red Cross
All the information about the charity can be found here:
https://donate.redcross.org.uk/appeal/ukraine-crisis-appeal
ENTRIES ARE NOW CLOSED
Prizes
8.96 ozt Ripple Bar
9.49 ozt Ripple Bar
9.96 ozt Ripple Bar
9.74 ozt Ripple Bar
9.68 ozt Ripple Bar
Total: 47.83
1x 1oz silver coin (to be determined at a later date)
1x 1oz silver coin (to be determined at a later date)
1x 1oz silver coin (to be determined at a later date)
1x 1oz silver coin (to be determined at a later date)
ONE PRIZE PER PERSON MAXIMUM
We are going to limit one prize per person to get as many winners as possible.
Winners will not have to pay for any postage/shipping
Winners will, however, be responsible for any import charges for delivery to their home country.
DRAW DATES
At this time we do not have a specific time for entries to close by and the draw date to happen.
My best estimate is that we will be able to draw the winners in week commencing 11th April 2022.
As soon as we have firm dates set for this we will communicate out here on the forum.
But I felt it would be a good idea to get the entries rolling in so that we can make donations every other day to The Red Cross sooner rather than later.
LIVE DRAWING THE RESULTS
I will be hosting a livestream on YouTube to draw the results using a random number generator. Exact details of this selection process will be shared in due course.
If anyone has any questions or anything else they want to know about this please feel free to ask here or PM me!
Thanks all!

BackyardBullion got a reaction from Heirlooms in Royal Mint British Monarchs Collection
Very happy to say I have received THREE perfect examples of James 1st
Actually really love this coin and this series is going to look SO GOOD when done.
I have Three coins, I only need one....
So...
Some of you may recall an incredibly generous gift from @Rll1288 Who sold me his Henry at mint issue price when I had a bad one delivered from the mint.
So I am paying this generosity forward by giving @Rll1288 one of these at issue price and also to one other lucky forum member.
That other member has been selected already based on the level of annoyance I sensed when they shared their disappointment in this thread on release day.

I work for the BRC, and, while I am not representing the organisation, a huge personal thanks from me for everyone who's donated to this appeal.

Just donated £275 (would have done it last night but was dead to the world after a particularly energetic Squash Match!)
So, small miscalculation on the total, we are actually at £1395
Lets keep it going and onwards to £2k

Had this delivered today thanks to @BackyardBullion. Absolute cracker of a coin but not so much the capsule. I'm going to be sending this off for grading. It'll be the first one I've graded so 🤞 it does as well as I think it could.
