A little light relief, and some on here will have heard about this & there are new people who haven’t. But this thread has a wide readership at the moment 

this week, the Mint is auctioning a fine example of the earliest sovereign that can be in private hands 

The sovereign, one of just two in private hands, is Henry VII and is likely to be over $1m 

details are here. https://www.coinnews.net/2021/02/12/royal-mint-to-auction-ngc-certified-henry-vii-sovereign-on-march-4/
 

it’s graded, documented, cared for & about to find a new home on Thursday. 
 

I am sure some will find it interesting 

There is no ‘buy now’ price 🙂

I have been waiting for something to swap out my Una with, Thanks   

It was £1231 at 1am and I bought an Una bar.

The RM live gold price ticker was 10 points higher at that point. How are we supposed to trust these people ???

Great summary. Sounds like a few people think there will be a price bubble around these coins, Una & Graces. Certainly has ingredients of frenzy buying, a very narrow & not transparent market ( eBay ) & the low intrinsic cost of the ingredient 

not everyone can make ££ on every sale. Someone will be left holding the bag. I think it depends on how many of the initial allocation end up with long term collectors or holders. If it’s a narrow market then prices wil be high & the well graded ones especially. As we see in the auctions the 70s across almost any coin genre have a significant premium. 
great summary

Thank you

I am still offering £1100 for each silver 2oz coins  

I have a couple of Una's somewhere not seen them since they arrived.  I might be interested in parting with one if anyone is searching for one.

I didnt understand 😅 i need a reassurance please. Is there a possibility to be canceled or not?  

If you purchase a coin with a card it is the cards registered address that is recorded not the delivered too address.

If you buy 10 coins on 1 card delivered too 10 different addresses you will get 1 coin delivered to the cards registered address.

This is how I understand it

Speaking about the “we regret to let you know” email that might be sent as some are saying, I had to use my friends credit card to buy my coin as the website wasn't letting me use a debit card. He also purchased his coin using the same card. But we live in different houses in the same city.  Is there a possibility my coin canceled for the above reason?    

1 coin - 1 card - 1 card registered address

I bought much like Andrew and  still have a couple which are at around spot now. The question is always there in the back of your head when you see the sales as they are " do I shed one for the massive pay out"  mmmm makes you wonder

I think the main issue is the fairness of the situation there would seems to be confusion within the RM's  interpretation a level playing field.

The RM:

1. Say that they are limiting a household to one unit of a release to ensure everyone gets a crack of the whip.

2. Sell coins from a release to people not in a cue awaiting their opportunity to purchase.

2 obviously makes 1 laughable and the RM untrustworthy in their decision making

There should be no obligation on the royal mint to do anything other put the coin to be released behind a buy now button.

I paid the 3

Presumably as  Music Legends is quite a loose term it could also involve composers like lloyd webber could it not

@GoldElliottLike a toy with your nuggets you mean (pardon the pun)

whilst I do find posts quoting prices as spot (+ a percentage) confusing and less straight forward than just picking a price a sticking to it, I am curious as to how offering a free coin is hideous 😂

It just makes me think  "please buy me" 

If you dont want to spent 1300 on a washing machine giving you a box of daz is not going to change your mind

Is gold getting to expensive for people to buy. I have advertised a number of one ounce gold coins at spot including delivery, even offering a free Proof silver 1 ounce eagle with a gold ounce at spot but no takers.  Gold listed at spot used to sell almost instantly but now there are no takers.

I myself am new both here on the forum and as a collector/stacker. On a personal note I ignore your sales posts which seem to continually pop up with Spot plus postage in the title because I get the impression you are playing the game. As the spot price has climbed it seems to me as you have climbed on. I thought todays offering of a free coin was hideous to be frank but just my opinion and am sorry if it offends.

Hmm..that makes me think. Since I have the 1 & 2 Oz coins...why shouldn't I get the half ounce one too, to complete the set. I think I will

Personally I think that is the plan and lot more people can dig for the silver when the gold is out of reach.

Haha its not the one I have for sale this is my keeper to go with the 2 & 1/2 oz

Postie brought me a perfect one

Maybe the more scarce are coins which are perfectly aligned?! It would make more sense to pay more for a perfect-looking coin than an error one

Exactly my thoughts

Looks more like its rotated a tad

Exactly and it varies from only slightly on the top pick up to big twist that affects the 3. Once they are twisted the keys show on an angle. As I say I have looked at these for days now and not seen a good one

Its going to be the aligned ones are the rare ones 😂

Perfect example

Pickups under strings on guitar left side, gold doesnt cover silver throws the top piano keys out of line.

Interestingly the left side and top of coin seem to be misaligned but the right side of coin does not.

Could be classed as an Error Coin ??

I have yet to see a perfect one except the one in the pic from royal mint. I must of looked at 100 on the bay and I can not find one
