ArgentumPica

The final piece of the puzzle. 

Yes they do, both my 2oz and 1/4oz came with the screw type capsules.

I don't tend to think about spot prices much to be honest (apart from when buying, so I know the premium)

I intend to hold onto it long term.

If it helps @calandlew1 it was my first gold bullion purchase too, and I'm very happy

Agree with Cully

I'd get the 1/4 first, it's easier to find £37odd than £255

That 1oz is beautiful,  on my to buy list for sure. 

Appreciate that, but to be honest. I bought one from a member on this forum already, but no sign of it yet, it's been 8 days :/

Also just had 2 of these. 

So close - I can see the end.

In my view, while the Queen's Beasts coin is interesting, ultimately it's a rather poor (not aesthetically appealing) design and I just won't support a poorly designed coin or medal unless perhaps it happens to be part of a set I feel I must complete and of which the other coins/medals in the set have a good quality design.

 

.

Personally, I really like the design, and I think the series will be a nice one.

Changed mind a bit, the queens head looks better in the video than the pic. What do you think if it in real life @Numistacker and @ArgentumPica?

First impressions, I thought it was a poor strike for Lizzy, but upon closer inspection in better light it isn't that bad. Not a fan of the texture, but not a deal breaker for me.

I think you are right. I will send it back to them

That's unfortunate. I have no interest in grading mine, but still, it's not pleasant when they are damaged. 

Yeah I agree, I felt the same when I looked at mine. 
Still very happy with it though. 
If it didn't have that 80's woodchip wallpaper look and had nice clean fields I think it would be much better.

That actually looks really really nice

What's the quality like? 

Really nice, the obverse isn't well defined, her Maj isn't very sharp. But the Beast side, the side I'm interested in, is lovely and crisp.
