Do we know this is the end of the Great Engravers series?

Despite all the stress and hullabaloo I do like the series.

There was a rumour here some time back that it isn’t the end, and the next coin is the Petition Crown or something.

I had hoped they would do William Wyon’s St. George and the Dragon… but they’ve definitely confirmed that the Gothic Crown ends the “trilogy” of his work. 😭

Would've loved to have seen this on a sovereign

Still available to order from Chards, just put mine in

Is the SOTD sovereign being sold today? 

I was in the preparing to launch page since 8:15 I refreshed at 8:57 and had only 5 people ahead of me, I just went for the single 2oz

Managed to order the 2oz 😁

I got the confirmation emails to. On the 4 coin set it was letting me subscribe to a yearly thing but bypassed it too quick to read

Just received my confirmation email, hopefully it goes through, Thanks for the link! 

Saw this on The Britannia Coin Company

A Strike on the day NO SO PROBLEM FREE!  🤬🤬🤯🤯

I was trying not to be hard and I would have forgiven the odd spot but come on Royal Mint!!!!!

Other than the obvious spots there is a dirty great thumb print on the reverse slap bang in the centre of the coin from the right hand side of the sword, horses under belly to the back of St Georges leg, hard to see in the photo's but it's there.  

I was joking with @Zhorro to say I'm buying one out of morbid curiosity.  It's a shame as the strike is very good and lots of depth to the dragon.........Will try and get a replacement.  

They could be fine tool marks not polished enough, I have the same on mine and seem to follow the deeper contours of the horse

Sold out already?

Awesome, I see that's for £640. I wonder what the RM price will be. £640 doesn't sound too crazy, when compared to previous SOTD's. 

I think this coin should sell out within the first day at the Mint, unlike the Decimal Day 50p. I just feel it in my gut, there is still strong interest in special sovereigns. Mintage not too crazy, and this is an important birthday for the Queen. 

I also think so, normally the Royal Mint have them around the same price, I got mine for £636 using "Grace" coupon, just glad now I don't have to get up early and try to rush filling in info and getting card declined lol

Pre Order available for Celebration Sovereign, orderly line

https://www.thecoinconnection.co.uk/product/the-95th-birthday-of-her-majesty-the-queen-celebration-2021-sovereign-pre-order/

That's the coin from the longest reigning monarch probably put it up by accident

I thought it sold out?
