Jeez, somebody up there likes me today. I spoke to someone, who spoke to someone who managed to get my 2oz moved onto a continuity list. It must have been my charm and sheer luck I spoke to someone who had one in the backpocket
 

There's 53 pages of info on it in the thread 😆 but the tldr version is yeah this morning created a lot of happy and reasonably unhappy campers.

I feel for you…I did the same thing…first time buying and hands trembling to click….managed to get the 2oz silver just to realise there was an option for both coins. Called RM and a nice guy explained that all is gone and I need to do the same exercise next year   with fewer coins available of course…;( 
but it was great fun. Btw the gold was gone when I managed to get in at 9:35-9:40

Had a call from my RM account manager, i was in the position of being promised a guaranteed/allocated a 2oz gold last week, but could not be sure which, milled or plain edge as i didn't quite qualify for my spend level to 100% guarantee one of the 125 "plain edges" and he would know once they had finished contacting all their higher level Mint Marque members. 
Well, i am proud to report, i am an owner of a 2oz Gold "plain edge" Gothic Crown now  
One very happy chappy here today !   must me for my "services to the forum" Ive been rewarded from on high 

@Piperscoins If not mate at least we were lucky today. Better than nothing 😁

looks like we are in the same boat.   Hopefully  we will get an email in a few days with our name on the next release list. 

I was the same on the phone they said they cant do anything about it because before placing a new order they need to cancel yours. Also they are saying sold out so they cant cancel your original and change to both.

Just a word to everyone out there involved in this morning's blood bath.
Lots of emotions will be flying around regarding queue systems, getting on in the first place and then even buying!
For those lucky few that got the 2 oz gold now comes the even harder bit, actually deciding what to do with it and if you are after profit how to best make that profit. 
FOMO and feeling bad for not buying the 2 oz gold is natural but it will pass - this was basically a lottery this morning. I estimated about a 2% chance of getting a gold and 5 oz silver and about 20% of getting a 2 oz silver.
Try to not feel bad if you missed out, its only money and the green eyed monster can be a bad path to fall down.
Look after yourselves all!

The 2-coin series is just giving you the option to “reserve“ the second coin.
In both cases you are only being charged for the first coin right now.
If you’ve reserved the second coin though, it saves you the bother / hassle / stress / uncertainty when it is released as you’ll be guaranteed to get it - and they will take payment for it at that point.
Make sense?

Surely it should be a ballot instead of first come first served.

You are all WRONG! He has bought sleep, peace of mind and no 8am alarms in march 😂

The portrait side of the gothic crown. 

They'll probably just cancel one i think

Hope the Gold is still available when I get home from work

well got a 2oz silver and 2oz gold on pre-order (hopefully 'plain edge' fingers crossed) - cant complain at that 
Off to work to pay for them now lol 

I have absolutely no idea how I managed to get lucky and get in to buy. Happy camper though.

it should auto refresh on 9am

it should auto refresh on 9am

it should auto refresh on 9am

it should auto refresh on 9am

Repeat after me, “My name is……..and I am a Royal Mint release day adrenalin junkie”
 

Morning all,
so, once we get this screen up, we don't need to refresh...? Right?
or wrong...?  🤔
 

@James32 is it worth it - yes.
buy and flip - instant profit.
buy and has imperfections - return.
buy and lose money - unlikely at RRP.

There is also a difference between milk spots and natural toning.
One is appealing the other not

@dirt94 Tomorrow morning before 9am. You will open the royal mint website.
Usually at half 8 maybe a bit before or after. Refresh and it will change to a page that says site is down for new release.
From my understanding you don’t need to refresh again when on this page you just sit tight and at 9am it changes to a queue.
when your turn is up itll be the rm homepage sometimes the gothic will be right there to click on sometimes you will need to navigate the menus first. Most likely it will show a banner with great engravers on sale 9am and you will click it.
