Spotted a few sovereign's that I could do with for the collection. Is the 18% buyer's premium plus VAT or inclusive of VAT?

The premiums are exclusive of VAT. So you’re needing to add on 21.6%. That is still better than Heritage and Baldwin St James etc. 

Good point though and an important reminder that if you lose your mind during an auction the £3,500.00 you just spent on a sovereign means you will get an invoice for £4,256.00!

The 20F and SA gold will be going to a dealer today. Anyone want these before I move them on? Cheers!

Ah thanks for clarifying that.

I can’t seem to find the premium auction anymore for some reason, but I recall seeing the (ungraded) Gothic Crown 2oz plain edge as one of the lots, and there was no condition description for it.

I didn’t scan the entire set of lots but I will this weekend. 🙂

It is described as A/FDC which means ‘almost fleur de coin’. It looks good to me but of course they don’t want to say it is perfect if the buyer grades and gets a PR68! 

This is not the premium auction. This is their world coin auction. They always describe the condition in their premium auctions which is the topic of this thread.

I do now see what you mean and agree and think they should do this with all their auctions. I also agree that I would not buy without a condition description. I am a little lucky that I live in London and so can go to view the coins if ever needed.

Is there anything catching your eye in this current auction where the conditions are described?

The only problem (for me) is they don’t describe the condition of coins, unless no mention of condition is supposed to be taken as no issues? That’s a risky assumption to make. 😅 

They do describe the condition. Are you thinking of another auction house?

Any coin that is not slabbed by a third party grading service is described in pretty accurate terms. I have never personally had issues. I don’t buy cleaned coins so for me this is important. For example:

Evening!

Coin Cabinet’s latest Premium Auction has just gone live.

Some interesting coins including a 2021 Plain Edge Gothic Quartered Arms. Only 125 minted! Probably a bargain for someone in the end, I would think.

Anyone in for anything? I have my eyes on a few things! Some lovely early Victoria silver, half sovereigns and a beautiful selection of farthings! 

Pm will be with you in the next thirty mins! Just out with the dog!!

I'll take this little haul if still available please!

 

Sorry for delay in response @katyc. Someone contacted me about the A Mark. Just waiting to hear back from them. If they take that are you still interested in the rest? Free postage will remain as applied, if so. Sorry again for the delay. 

Anyone for anything before these are withdrawn? Sorry for the bump, but just checking in before I do close this down. Cheers.

'They say..the only way is up' I think they lied.

It’s because I listed gold for sale. Always drops when I put up listings!!!

Given the plunge in gold price overnight, please note some reductions in the non-proof coins. 

I am having a total nightmare today. The price adjustment was wrong (obviously). My head needs to be smacked around by a cricket bat…..withdrawing for the time being to clean things up. Sorry for the total mess. Destined to not sell anything………

Hey mate, I will take the 2005 sovereign if it's in good condition without any scratches or dings. I will wait for the images, but wanted to let you know.

As confirmed via PM may be better to go with the other option as this does have a few marks and is not even going to get an MS68!!

Others are being withdrawn as my camera is playing up and I will have to sort this later. 

Cheers for interest!

A quick qyestion, does anyone know what the situation is regarding sending / selling coins to Russia?

I think bullion gold is banned, but not sure about collectable coins such as proof sovereigns etc?

Cheers.

The regulations (see schedule 3G: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2019/855/contents) impose trade sanctions on gold coins.

Proofs would fall under that according to my understanding.
