Update on my Chards order, they rang me this afternoon saying the site had not been updated and the Churchill medals are no longer available.
Should have stuck to Hatton garden metals lol.

A bit of a long winded one with a bargain at the end.
I spotted a "Centenary of Winston Churchill - This Was Their Finest Hour" Gold 2 X Medallion Set by Christopher Ironside on ebay @ £570
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/centenary-of-winston-churchills-birth-two-coin-set-21-carat-gold/183029671894?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649
 
Coin details : 1 X 17.5g + 1 X 3.5g made from 900 gold (stamped on the coins too) so fine weight = 18.9g, however as they are produced outside the UK they are listed as 18ct.
After a little searching for a price check I notice Chards had a 2 coin set and a 3 coin set listed as 18ct.
So basically got the the two sets with a fine weight of 2.66oz for a total of £1.72 over spot for the lot
