Not sure if a good deal, but using DSC298 and DSC304 codes on RM site can save a bit on the silver A-Z 10p coins. I got a few N for NHS and C for Cricket ones in their acrylic boxes for less than £17 each, compared to RRP of £45 each. Going through cashback sites helped a bit more too!

True indeed! However, he/she is a Silverback on 1 oz Silver, having natural anti-viral properties, thereby reducing the propagation of gorillavirus!😆

But like @Bullionaire points out folks, don’t be like 2020 Silverback Gorilla and cover up those sneezes and coughs with elbows and adhere to proper hygienic practices with hand, phone and clothes washing!!😁

Me wrong, only in the eyes of the wifey!

I actually think the bullion silver and gold versions will be the ones to be wary off (if you are a 🐬). Different quality but might well be attracted by many Queen fans who dont know any different! I would expect these to have 50,000 to unlimited mintage!

Here they are @kimchi

Upcoming 2k Silver Una & Lion!

I wouldn't be surprised. They can see all the pre-order listings on ebay. 

I'm probably the least efficient flipper! I wait until i have coin in hand, then the £1 ebay fees deal before listing! By then most of the thos crazy demand coin folk have got theres!

You need to be checking before your thinking of selling, one of my 2oz been cancelled ??

A bit cheeky, but i wonder if they are retrospectively enforcing one per household

I dont think its over yet with Queen coin releases.

Still maybe

a 1 kg gold (as mentioned above) & 5 oz gold

a 10 oz silver

Also in bullion or BU version - 1 oz silver and 1 oz gold!

Apologies up front...I will have to break up my received coins over several posts, since most everything arrived after I had been away for several weeks...the variety shall not disappoint.

Kicking us off with some silver...the 2015 - 2019 Republic of Congo 1 oz Silver Silverback Gorilla (Prooflike) series. I picked these up as I also gifted a set to an Air Force colleague of mine who goes by the same call sign as these one ouncers!

 

 

Next, a recent release 2019 Netherlands 1 oz Silver Ducaton Silver Rider Proof Restrike. Really like this design!

 

 

Is it wrong of me that rather than the coin i was immediately drawn to 4 letters!

Sorry I have no idea on the name of the company. They dealer had the same position they had last year. Anybody able to confirm the dealer's name. On the floor upstairs with a large display of coins with lights. 

Fairly prominent position upstairs. 

Can anybody name the dealer ?

I remember him from last year, very expensive pricing IIRC. @terakris can confirm!

Looks great buddy where did you get the 2oz from in the end?

@Panda6Pack this time around. Very good service too. I've got a few things and the timings fit!

....nice 😉

Certainly is. Though there is another purchase i like even better which youll be tagged in the post!

The silver proof version is available for £299.99 at our favourite spam mail supplier H & B. 

I'm sure in recall reading on here somewhere that they got an allocation of 150 ish?

Got the silver one from RM just now. Finally! 😁

£170 with the discount. Think it was the only one as back out of stock. Shows it’s worth checking daily though. 

Now I’ve got to decide what I bought this random silver coin for, I blame the silver forum!! 😂

Nice pick up

But this place certainly does not help with TSF FOMO!

Wow I bought 10 recently from Yorkshire bullion for £24.99 each and I thought that was a deal, I got some doubles for the same price and I managed to win a phoenix at £33 on eBay.

There is something about these coins I just love them I've even bought a load of coloured version I dare'nt even say what I paid for them.

I keep watching the error phoenix on eBay for £55 in the hope they send an offer.

Joining the forum has been a real eye opener regarding pricing and what people pay for their silver, it really is so good to be here.

Big fan of the dragon and phoenix, the gold version one of my fave coins.

Try @morezone for the error, maybe some left?

Some of the other engravers will be tattoo artists.

According to the London Gazette "The reverse design will show a pair of hands. The left hand knuckles will bear the letters L.O.V.E. and the right hand knuckles will bear the letters H.A.T.E. The hands are those of Her Majesty".

Surprised you missed that one @h103efa 😁

Didn't miss it at all @GoodAsGold, from the design I've seen, the left hand says E.T.A.H and the right E.V.O.L
