A few of these have been shared but wanted to shout out @ChardsCoinandBullionDealer for my 2022 SOTD that arrived today. Great communication throughout and no issues with the coin

Here is my 2022 SotD Sovereign from @ChardsCoinandBullionDealer.  It is gorgeous!  Thanks again to @LawrenceChard.

Thanks Priit for joining in the conversation.
It will be interesting to have some worthwhile competition.
I just skimmed through your accounts, which do look impressive.
I will tag @ChardsCoinandBullionDealer in to this thread, to give them a "heads up"!

In anticipation of the 2022 Proof Britannia release I thought I'd revive this thread from 18 months ago, what's your best or your favourite Britannia designs (as these could be different)? You can pick more than 1 favourite but only 1 best. My favourites are still Philip Nathan's designs (1997, 2001, 2003 and 2005), my best design is Jody Clark's 2014 globe Britannia. Honourable mentions, the 2007, 2013 and 2021 premium. Here's a link to most of the designs to jog your memories however the 2020 and 2021 designs are missing:

Would prefer to use the @ChardsCoinandBullionDealer link however there are a few more designs missing from their list. @LawrenceChard, is it possible to update?:

10 oz Quartered Arms update. Our photographer took some high res images of the areas @BackyardBullion pointed out. The marks definitely don't appear as bad as we first thought. Most of it was on the capsule. It's actually a nice condition coin.

That's a feeble excuse!

May i ask why you don't display a picture of the actual coin whilst advertising it for sale?

Thanks for pointing these out, @BackyardBullion. We've inspected the coin and can confirm the circled points are on the capsule. We have noticed a small fleck near the harp, however, overall, we're happy with the coin. One of Royal Mint's finest for once 😉

Nice one @BackyardBullion. Thanks for arranging and posting. Quite enjoyable.
Was pleasantly surprised (relieved) to see Lawrence wearing pants...unlike his forum avatar...🤣

We have temporarily stopped trading Bullion. If you are registered with The Royal Mint, you will receive an email when were back online.

I don't know how long ago they suspended bullion trading. If it was yesterday, I could partly understand it, but the market is quieter, and much less volatile today.
This seems to mark the Royal Mint out as a "fair weather" dealer. It must be unsatisfactory for their customers to discover they can't buy or sell when they want to, particularly when markets are busy and volatile.
This is a clear indication that other UK bullion dealers operate a much more reliable market and service.
Also, where are the Apostrophe Police when you need them?
 

Oh my goodness, the photograph I found in the bottom of my mystery box makes even more sense now!

Seems to be very similar items in all then. I made a very impromptu unboxing video on Monday after I collected it, hence why it's not the best.
As I'm sure you can tell, it's actually the first unboxing vid I've ever done

No sovereign  but a nice selection, including a bullion 2022 Britannia, Peter Rabbit proof and a Windsor Centenary proof.
Does this count for my reaction entry for the bullion sovereign @ChardsCoinandBullionDealer @LawrenceChard (#ChardsMysteryBox)???

Dog house it is for me after opening it. no sovereign but very happy with my haul. Thanks @ChardsCoinandBullionDealer

Mystery box fun from @ChardsCoinandBullionDealer! Lovely jubbly.
