    Not too bad then, you guys are living the dream compared to those of us in the UK  
    p.s. I think I just randomly assumed you were British because it was a Britannia - my bad! 😂

    Another Black Friday purchase arrived today.  2019 1 oz platinum Britannia.  My first plat coin, as the rest of my platinum purchases have been in bar form and I rarely find platinum coins on sale for a low premium.

    Do us a favour and pop yours up for auction without a reserve. We can see where it ends up. That'll put all this mystery to rest 😄

    I Hit the sorting office at 7 am this morning in the hope of it being my No. 1 purchase of the year, although soon to be knocked off by the Earth Moon work of art.
    Many thanks to @BackyardBullion
    Christmas has come early.

    Been saving up for months to get my first 1oz Krugerrand. It’s a beauty. I save a bit on the side each year to get ONE nice coin. This is this years choice. Shame it’s gone to storage already.

    2019 Fiji Mandala art Gothic coin. 
    Didn’t realize how beautiful it is until now. 
    You really must see the real thing to fully appreciate the beauty of a coin.

    Still no confirmed 100% sales in the private after market. the one sale London Coin Company shows 
    The one sale they shows is via best offer and to someone with very low feedback 
    Offer history User ID Offer Status Quantity Date of Offer  l***b ( 7 ) Accepted 1 Dec-01-19 14:22:56 PST 0***a ( 72) Declined 2 Dec-03-19 17:35:57 PST 0***a ( 72) Declined 1 Dec-03-19 17:35:17 PST 0***a ( 72) Declined 2 Dec-03-19 17:16:56 PST 0***a ( 72) Declined 2 Dec-03-19 17:15:31 PST p***_ ( 49) Declined 1 Dec-01-19 21:50:00 PST p***_ ( 49) Declined 1 Dec-01-19 21:48:41 PST  
    there have been no interest of further offers made, on London Coin Company's listing since the 3rd Dec -  even a crazy low offer - that is 6 days without interest
    second one has been listed on ebay.co.uk at £25,000 with no offers made  eBay item number: #254446275421  he states ""Will Accept Decent Offer otherwise will hold it""
    But no offers have been made on it
    another one is listed on auction on ebay.co.uk at start bid of £12,345 by seller "greedisgood".  eBay item number: #283702185668
    no bids as yet, ending today in 11 hrs 
     
    So it is still just pure speculation, what it is worth as yet.
    Need one listed, on 0.99p start for x7 day sale and see what two or three collectors with good feedbacks, feel it is worth them them, to judge its true market value
    Until 3-5 have sold in the secondary market, there is still no benchmark/level price what the gold Una is worth as yet

    Open question - how has this been established as the flagship modern gold coin of it's time? Seems a jump given it's been out like a week and hardly anyone owns it. 
    I hope people don't get carried away in a wave of speculation. Sounds like lots of coins while sold haven't actually been sent out yet and therefore haven't hit the market, and also sounds like a fair amount of speculation on this being the next 'series to have'. I don't doubt peoples money is safe on this one at RRP, but I wouldn't want to be the first person to go and pay double RRP on it to be honest. People can ask whatever price they want, do we have evidence of people actively buying at these high numbers? 
    Context - I know literally nothing about numismatics so I may be talking utter nonsense 😂 Just seems odd to me that someone can produce a coin today, say it's limited to 225, and suddenly it's not only selling at double spot price retail, but also then reselling allegedly for 4-6 times spot! 😮

    I think this is my favourite coin from my small selection. She's seen some wear, but that just makes me wonder where she's been! A bit squeezed in to the capsule so the rim is partially obscured.
