If you're buying silver @theman73@SilverTalent @arshimo2012 and others have had various items that fit the bill for "CGT exempt" coins. I'm sure they'll chip in with their current or recent prices

2018 1oz Gold Canadian Maple
 
£1615 + £9.35 Delivery
Coin in very nice bullion condition
UK address & Bank Transfer only
Supplied in a coin flip
 
 

The big one, this the one to have if you want a kilo proof,£1350 inc shipping to a UK address, I will ship worldwide but message me 1st as it won't be cheap to ship abroad l'll  give equivalent postage discount to a non UK buyer. Coin is in excellent condition with no spots. Lid of case has tiny crack in the wood which was like that when I bought it new.
There were 4 numismatic versions of this coin from Perth mint in 2012
Silver Proof with a mintage of 500 that is the one I'm selling
Coloured silver proof also 500 mintage
Coloured bullion silver mintage 3252
Silver bullion ruby dragon eye mintage 1895 
All very hard to find, I've looked at prices & I'm asking £700-£800 less than anyone else, in fact there are only 2 for sale worldwide as far as I can see both outside the UK.
Just a bit of info for any newbies not familiar with proofs ,you can go on ebay & see kilo dragon sold prices for £800/£900 but they are standard  bullion coins that have been advertised wrongly as proofs with no case cert etc etc. Also Perth mint have still not declared a final mintage on those 1kg standard bullion coins currently they have minted a rather large 57,348 as of 1st Dec 2020.
                                                NOW £1295

I've not met or dealt with Monsmoy. Our thoughts are with his family. 
 
Thank you Andrew for sharing the sad news of the passing of our fellow forum member. 
 
Tsf is a community, and we have lost one of our own. 

Dear all,
With some sadness I write to confirm that monsmoy died recently. It was an unexpected death and I am beyond sure he will be a great miss to everyone.
He was the perfect gentleman and had a real eye for beautiful coins. His collection is a thing of beauty and will no doubt provide for his family as he wanted.
In order to give the family some privacy I am not posting specific details, but I am considering a small auction to raise money for a charity in his name. More to follow on that.
In the meantime, his wife will be looking to reset the password here in order to make sure that all pending deals are satisfactorily completed. If you do have any outstanding business please message him. If it helps, I am happy to take messages and share them directly.
As a last point, I thought I would repost one of his helpful messages. He always had time even when he was learning himself, and this message reflects that:
 
“The whole discussion regarding collecting, stacking and liquidity is interesting and there will be differing views.  I, too, am relatively new to the the world of physical PM, but have some thoughts:
1.  Silver coins are nice, but I question the real sense if truly stacking.  Are we really thinking that at some point we would use them in exchange for goods and services?  Is there a high risk that once you start buying coins, the greed monster kicks in and, where you may have deliberately said "split between Brits and Maples" only, it soon turns into Kooks, Krugers (ASEs if someone is selling cheaper than normal) etc? Also, they tarnish!
2.  One common maxim is that you watch the gold versus silver ratio.  Whilst the number is deemed high, as now at a little under 80:1, you buy silver.  When that number drops, perhaps to 50, you sell the silver and buy gold.  If you follow this, then why not just buy manageable bars (10oz, 250g to 1kg)?
3. Everyone considers different factors when discussing the future of silver. My hope is that any manipulation of the price is relaxed/stopped, but I am also conscious that something seismic may catch us all off guard as Govs could introduce measures to control the price in line with a growing industrial consumption (Indeed, something sooner may happen if the bank exposure is truly understood). If the former, and the aforementioned ratio rebalances, the stackers are quids in with multiple 100% ROI. If the latter, we could all be sitting with dead ducks and wishing we just bought gold.
4. Sovs v Brits.  Yes, Sovs theoretically are easier to sell on at a time of need.  If you are in a time of need, is £360 or £720 going to be sufficient?  
5. If saving for the future, ergo the long investment, then the common cry is the cost now and the premium is less important (than if you are flipping). If you are saving for the future, perhaps you are investing a set amount per month, then surely it's best still to buy the highest amount at the lowest premium?  The aesthetics and heart needs to take a second place to a more business approach.  Of course you can go down the more specific long term investment, buying a rare coin or sets of highly graded or similar, but that is another game and not stacking.
6. Consider the current CGT and VAT rules.
7. A couple of final thoughts: 
a) Collecting coins, gold or silver, can be addictive. Don't get attached
b) There are many sovereigns; there are many different Au and Ag coins. Limit your horizon
c) Consider storage space and insurance
d) Talk to people that have been in this market for sometime.  I have found people on TSF to be extraordinarily kind when sharing advice and thoughts as well as services
7. Last point is that I wager that what you are planning now, your strategy, will have changed within 12 months.
All the best with whatever you do.“
 
With huge appreciation.
Andrew.
