I'm thinking it's people pulling their funds out of crypto looking at the beating that's taken over the last month and choosing silver over gold due to the ratio being so far out of wack 

Looking at ebay did most of these end up In the hands of resellers? What's worse is a couple of them look to be 70s if it wasn't for grubby finger markets 😢

Wasn't sure if the mint would stick with 2021 on the queen's side or swap to 2022 for the later issue releases but looks to be all 2021

Yeah i was few hours after dispatch. 

I've just received and haven't been charged yet 🙄

How can you be sure you sent the right one?

If I was into grading ,I'd send both.

I'll send both if I decide to grade then i get 2 swings at a 70 

Has anyone been charged yet 🤷‍♂️

So now comes the question do I send both off for grading, just sit on the spare?

The mint have done well, gorgeous coin and flawless as far as I can see 😊

What's the date on the actual coin if you don't mind me asking 

🤔 Guess I'm getting another gothic crown tomorrow. result

Nothing new here - marketing gurus - set a high price to make people believe the item is special and extra valuable and people will flock to buy.
Offer it too cheap and people will not think it's worth much so won't buy - works every time.
 

With that markup it's almost worth pumping out sets in a snazzy little case especially given its only Bullion 

Anyone else noticed the mint taking the royal piss with their premiums lately 3 sov set all Bullion 1800 that's 500 per sov and a box at 300

Like the designs releasing on the 4th apparently. Hell of a lot nicer than the regurgitated sovereign design. But if rm's queuing system is the same as the gothic crown you'd need to have been in the que since Christmas eve 

My daily driving car has stood up to inflation better than my silver I paid £400 end of 2020 and like most cars it's now a grand plus 🙄 genuinely tempted to just buy a load of cheap cars instead of silver or gold

If that is how you interpret it, then yup  Correct me if I am wrong but proof sovs are brought out early each year.

The Bullion britanannia has also been released with 2022 so not just proof coins being released early 

Will be interesting to see if they do change the date what that'll do for the prices for any restrikes as the mintage would likely be in the 10s but wouldn't be the first time the date has caused issues with the mint, only got to look at 20p's 🤔

Who reckons the mint balls up the date on the next coin and we get a 2022 coin instead of 2021

My 2oz Silver has landed. I'm surprised i was told Feb anyway.    Very Nice. 

I am not going to get it graded and i have already showed around the family who all smiled and wonder why it is in a plastic container.

 

 

It's to keep sticky little fingers off an impressive coin

Half tempted to go through ebay offering the flippers 520 and see if I get any takers lol

Here’s my dad’s coin under 5x magnification (looks pretty minty so will probably send it for grading for him), can anyone see any issues??

I’ve not received mine yet but mines the continuity purchase, saying that, my dads was supposed to be the continuity one also 🤷‍♂️.

Mine’s marked as despatched with a Green tick ✅ but no tracking number so I believe I might receive it in January 🤷‍♂️ (if at all).

We both bought and paid for the single then minutes later saw the continuity option so we both bought that too. My A.M has said in writing that I’ll get both “sides” (portrait to follow) so fingers crossed (not sure about my dad). They’ve took his money x 2 already and my A.M said my single has been cancelled, so I expect his has too.

Right mess!!

Anyway, glad to have one!! They really do look so much better physically. 

Is that a bump right side of the coin outer ring above the L? And look round the lip on the edge of the coin as I tend to find if their dinged that's most likely asto where

Those that pre bought the next release, what type of coin does it say in open orders?

Apparently I'm waiting till Jan and March? 🤷‍♂️

So apologies if this is a stupid question but if you ordered the Quartered Arms you will get the first of the two coins in this set and if you ordered the Quartered Arms and Portrait choice that would be both of the coins in the set what you are calling the continuity set? It just showed £260 by the continuity set if that is correct but that is actually just the price per coin right?

Per coin

I've had 1 delivered today but my rm account is showing 2 open orders 1 for arms and one for portrait arms is apparently being sent early Jan and portrait march and I've still got a pending payment on a card so? Think it is anyone's guess if I end up with an extra it'll go up on here 

Think it's just luck of the draw as to one or 2 it's a screw up their end regardless

I wonder if there's any relationship between the coa number and the strike order...

Has yours got a tiny ding on it underneath the lion shield?

No ding on mine bot only have an x5 loop

Looks like there's a little ding underneath the right side of lion shield - my 2oz silver has a similar looking ding in the same spot (unfortunately I don't have a decent enough camera to take a pic). My coa number is 1995 - what's yours?

I've got 1997 wonder who got 96?
