Great engravers

[Bxlsteve]

Hello everyone, 

does anyone have an idea of the number of pieces this série might contain and what could be the next pieces. 
 

Eager to hear your speculations on the pieces you most want to see.

My best guess,  as the Royal Mint only have these engravers on the Museum website, designs will be sourced from them

http://www.royalmintmuseum.org.uk/history/people/artists/index.html

All though that be a lot of more modern designs and I'd prefer Victoria or before

We could have the tree muses if they would be ok with multiplying the same engravers.

I thought I remember reading somewhere it was a four coin series.

I’d rather it was a nice small edition and not something they draw out and milk until all interest wanes and the uniqueness is diluted.

[Bxlsteve]

A 4 coin series is a good number.

It will be interesting to see how many of the 225 gold owners will end up committing to the whole series......and to see if The RM keep prices the same.

Please dont quote me on that. I could very well be wrong.

The Cartwheel Penny would match up well with Una, feels similar in style, I will admit I have no idea who the engraver is and the design doesn't really wow me

Take yer pick....

I suspect many will try but few will succeed though of course thats assuming the RM keeps the mintage the same which is probably a stupid assumption to make all things considered. Either way I'm already dreading the next release and I'll probably only be after the silver to go with my silver Una. I'll do my best to source it from somewhere other than the RM just for the sake of not dealign with the mess that is their website on a popular release day.

That is why I choose the silver aswell. The gold is just out of my league.

Yeah and it was still a good decision. The gold is not something I'd of ever bought. I could make the funds available but I'm far too risk adverse and there were no signs it would do as well as it has done. I can only congratulate the buyers of it for taking the risk... who dares wins and all that. The silver though is doing well enough in its own right and if future releases are as well received then it should carry on doing well. I just hope those of us who might want to collect the series are able to do so...  I suspect the next release will be a messy affair.

It will very interesting to see how the mint play the rest of the series, considering their recent willingness to up their prices.

Will they stick with the same mintage and ramp up price or simply increase the mintage? Or a combination?

one thing for sure, they will be eyeing some serious profit for the remainder of the series.

I definitely want to take a punt on the next one thats out!

Anyone know roughly when that is?

[wolfiemac]

l'll definitely be looking at getting a silver one, the wife and kids want a holiday so gold is not on the cards for me...

But if i don't like the design then i'll give it a miss as i wont buy one just too flip it.

I am a set-collector-stacker-crazy-person. 
So basically I will order the silver one at least 1. Even if I don’t like the piece. (Damm writing this makes me understand the stupidity of the action but I know I will still do it) 

 

just scared of how quick I will have to be on this one.
