I like money

But I don't know anything about 50ps and their collectibility 

I was very surprised when I heard the gold brexit 50p was doing so well

That’s more like it!

Better than I thought too - I could maybe forgive pumped appearance now 😂 

[shawy2510]

Gold version or just silver?

[westminstrel]

I’m in!  Seems rather overpriced and underwhelming.

Too many releases by the RM 😐

[Kman]

These are the options 

[Shinus73]

The non-coloured silver proofs are a good bet at 3,000.

[h103efa]

Maximum Mintages:

Silver Proof Colour 7710
Silver proof 3010
Gold 360
BU colour 50,000

I went for a set of BU coloured. Hoping they will be popular as "Developed in conjunction with the Natural History Museum" so maybe sold at the museum too where plenty of tourist action!

[trp]

Golds a pretty good mintage, depends if you want to commit to the other two if you are collecting them. 

[westminstrel]

You’re a good fellow @Kman 🙂

[Kman]

I think I will just watch it and if any say 90% reserved before 12 maybe I will get it 

[ilovesilverireallydo]

The non-colour version are a lower mintage. I like them but £60 each  hmmm to buy or not to buy... 

[trp]

@ilovesilverireallydo - £5 cheaper too! I prefer the non coloured ones. 

[Midasfrog]

The colour BU might be popular its the first time the Royal Mint have put their sticker on a BU

Despite the large queue nothing seems to be selling out very fast

I don’t know about you but when I was a kid I didn’t have £945 to buy a gold Dinosaur 50p

Doubt there's 3000 kids on smart phones at school trying to get on the site 😛

You're hard to please - it's only been 45 mins!

I think this release will have crept up on a few people, as it semed to be less well publicised - the release date wasn't widely known.

I think they are going with 50ps since they are one of the larger coins and when they are doubling the base metal cost every time (As profit) I’m surprise they aren’t doing the £2 coins too?? Not sure which has more good without checking that 🤔 

[terakris]

Dont like them at all.

45 minutes but there's been many thousands of people on the site since 9am if the queues are accurate
