i saw pauls post and just took a a punt.it seemed good value. think i owe him a beer. 

Very rude of them to not send me #1 when I ordered first and then helped them sell out :D

On a serious note though, I don't think a #1 is worth any more than the others in the context of the Trial of the Pyx (I consider myself non biased as I also have a #1 (different coin obviously!)). There are at most 10 of each coin and the numbering is arbitrary (merely to uniquely identify them) and doesn't relate to order of mintage - all of the coins were mixed in the same paper envelope at some point.

On the other hand, I still regret not just buying them all myself 🤣

Ramsdens have these 1 Oz gold bars at below spot price. Whilst they seem to have adjusted the price of their sovereigns, they seem to have missed these bars

Also, just noticed they are on top cashback as well

Never used them myself, but Ramsdens have pawn shops everywhere, and I know people on here have used them several times

I'm tempted. Topcashback offer 0.85% cashback, which I think works out about £16

Yeah me, I've tried since but it seems after honouring my order they patched it to exclude certain items :(

Have you used them before?

They are ok, just takes a few days to get an order sorted, but no problems.

Funny how the description says 22CT. 

😅

I've seen a few high street pawnbrokers and jewelers not putting their prices up recently. Well worth a look at them in the passing. 

Caught one a week ago who had put their prices up on 2.5g bars but not 5g bars. Snatched a few at spot price. Since I've gotten rid of my last spot price 5g bars from the mint from last year.

Think I just missed the last one of those. Bought the 1/2 Oz instead but would have made a great pair of unreleased coins

There's also the unreleased 1oz! (Still available!).

And the 2022 1/4oz wasn't released either was it? But it had been in previous years, so that's not as exciting.

Not certain what they released in 2022 but be useful to check out. The 1/10th and 1/2 were interesting as the GS doesn't appear to have been released at any time in these denominations. 1 Oz were only proofs previously I think and plenty of 1/4's.

Will try and find out what exactly they issued in 2022 and keep an eye out for a 1/10th in the future if anyone sells

It would be nice to know what happened to the others, if there are any. With the unreleased Roosevelt and Churchill coins, it's known that all minted were sold to a US pension fund and haven't been available on the open market since. Could be the same for these gold standards.
