They was sent in same submission, so the share same number (4539986)

But they have different id number( 002 and 003)

Just means they were submitted on the same invoice - different line, and hence coin, numbers i.e. the 002 and 003.

Thanks to Numi there will be lots of coins, such as 2017 sovereigns, with the same invoice number?

My Britannias have arrived:

Crown gold and Britannia silver

In in the end I decided to celebrate the 30th gold Britannia anniversary with a 30 year old gold coin and the 20th silver Britannia anniversary with a 20 year old silver coin. Happy Birthday Britannia!

The shiny gold nicely distracts from the design; while that doesn't make the design any better, it makes it more tolerable. Especially the smaller denominations make it less recognisable. 

Was that a stroke of genius factoring the reflective material overshadow the dull Britannia?

Is it just me or does it look better in gold?

I agree...!

As Numi recommended I've just checked out @RegalStacker's erudite, balanced and restrained Youtube reviews of the Britannia - brilliant stuff!

My view is from the working man who does not have the time to care about art, but knows a good coin when they see it, the 2017 Britannia is not and never will be a good coin, I respect numistackers view but disagree

[PolarPanda]

It's a shame that peoples that obviously like the design are pushed aside by the 'haters' of it. It's like a disgrace when you buy it... Ofcourse it's not! I've heard a lot of peoples over the last days that said that the coin is growing on them. After i saw the movie from numi and i talked to some others that received the gold 1/4 proof i decided to buy it and i 'm very looking forward on receiving it. I respect everyone's opinion, but i don't understand the intense hatred for this coin.

Wrong thread for this discussion. There are threads specifically discussing this elsewhere on the site. It's good to have two sides with an opinion. Nothing wrong with that whatsoever by the way.
