@Petra It's mainly the special reverse I like although I have got two standard doubles,  I love the doubles great size for seeing the beauty of the coin.
 

Some nice 1989's showing up! Not jealous at all!
Need to try and save up and get one.
Keep buying sovs from my local coin guy, just not 1989's! 😭😅
My first South African, shame it wasn't an Australian from this year. Decent enough coin for a bit under spot though. 🙂

received the 2 and 5 OZ Silver today.
No expert but nothing specifically wrong with this under a glass
 

Oh it released today…

Good to see their prices haven’t gone ballistic (for the gold).

D Day.  One or two private mints have jumped on this bandwagon and RM look like they are joining them.  SotD could be part of the offering.
 

That’s my fear. The SotD has pretty much gone from being a “special occasion strike” to its own annual series.

I can't see them missing out on the income from at least one SotD regardless of the gold price.

Mid-year is usually when the £5 BU and the piedfort are released; but they had stopped the piedfort for a couple years (2020 and 2021).
I hope they don’t fabricate some reason to release an SotD this year. With current gold prices and their usual SotD premiums, I can imagine them being close to the £1000 mark. Uggh!

This article has just been published about Chinese investors going big into gold:
Chinese Have "Grabbed Gold By The Throat" As Capital Flight Accelerates | ZeroHedge

That’s where I quoted that bit from mate.

But also private individual Chinese investors have also been buying gold recently because of the problems in their property market, so this message is probably aimed at them.

I think somebody already posted a similar article, sounds like something @Chronos would post but if you haven't already read it:
China’s updated trading rules for gold and silver squeeze speculators, but quality purchases are rising -  Metals Daily CEO Ross Norman | Kitco News
The recent dip seems to have been mostly the result of hiking margin requirements in China to cool the gold market
Why would China do this? Like the Americans, they want to suppress the price of gold but for different reasons - the single largest buyer of physical gold in the world is the PBOC along with the wider Chinese financial system. They are doing this to hedge against the largest physical market in the world - Chinese real estate - and are being joined by regular citizens and businesses hedging against currency debasement and slow downs in both the real estate and manufacturing sectors.
India is also an important player with similar motivation. India + China and the wider Asia-Pacific region now account for 55%+ of global precious metals trading. When Kitco and others claim the west has lost control over precious metals pricing there's the proof, the Asia-Pacific region is driving more of the price action than the collective west combined
 

But also private individual Chinese investors have also been buying gold recently because of the problems in their property market, so this message is probably aimed at them.
