Ha. Only minutes ago it had '75% reserved' scrawled across the stock photo with 'Sold out' at the bottom.

And now as you quite rightly indicate, it's completely available!

Not in stock 🙈

[happy2gether]

not only 5oz available again, also 1oz silver, quarter oz gold and other versions. and also no indication how many reserved.

Thanks for this - limited to one per household though...All good, I may have a second one sorted for the original mint price. Thanks again!

As someone who is new to the world of coin collecting I have seen The RM do this with other releases.

I wonder if this is to create hysteria thus panic buying!? 🤔

[happy2gether]

Can it be that the special issue coins are in high relief or curved? that would be great. They only mention "Created with a combination of innovative minting techniques and traditional craftsmanship".

5oz and 1oz silver sold out again. 😂

Royal mint corrected limited edition presentation numbers for 5oz silver to 440 coins.

Mintage on the 5 oz silver increased to 440...

Not a super dooper sell out frenzy for these James Bond offerings

440 mintage now cited- the earlier 150/250 ‘typo’ might prove an expensive one- or perhaps this is the typo?

Looks like a new trick. Hmm 🤔 let’s say the mintage is 100 then change our mind and double it after people have ordered!! 
 

FFS! At least **** Turpin wore a mask 😷 

😡 

[MancunianStacker]

I can’t believe Richard Turpin has been pulled up in this forum’s swearing list 😂 

****

[happy2gether]

I believe AgAuNews is right with total mintage of 700 coins for the 5oz silver coin. If there is no kg silver version (LPM mentioned it, AgAuNews did not mention it) then 5oz silver is still the only silver coin with the front view of Aston Martin DB5.

To fulfill the ordered demand no doubt ~ Oh the cynicism within 😜

Check later, it might be 900 Mintage 😆

The 2oz versions have micro-engraved repeating list of the Bond movie titles.

really looking for the James Bond themed bars.

I have just read this. Did no one else spot the sarcastic reference to the RRP for the seven kilo coin?

'The blood of 1000 peasants'

🤣

Will something like this be a desirable collectable? 

I like this. Quirky. And I like different. I'm tempted. But as you ask @Kman, will it become a desirable collectable;

My hunch says potentially yes, considering Mr Bond is an institution of global interest. 

Sounds inviting ...

It’s expensive as the sheet weighs the half oz not half oz per ”stamp”. Cool  though !

The Royal Mail site states;

[ Silver stamps include ¼ ounce 925s Silver. ]

One would assume this pertains to the entire set.

Cool indeed!

Stamp shaped bullion/proofs, now there’s an idea!!

He’s not wearing gloves 😳 ... That’s going to be a PF65 at this rate.......

[kimchi]

Glad I missed this, don't like any of them much and think the car looks absolutely dreadful I'm very sorry to say. The Mint 'antics' get worse and worse...

Heard the new Bond song on the radio for the first time today and have to agree with the singer - 'it's just no time to buy'.

When i first got on the site i was disappointed with the design, only the 5oz silver/gold had what i was looking for, but £500 ish for a silver coin (Royal Mint Issues) no thanks and i can't justify the Gold.

But when I seen the 3 coins together making the up the full design i liked it, so went for 3 x 1oz Silver Proofs and a 1/4 Gold.

I'm a 007 fan so im happy to keep the coins but I may part with the silver ones and just keep the Gold.

[mr1030]

I checked them out.  I was really hoping for a knock out design that I would really like.  While I like the idea of using an Aston Martin in the design, the pictures on the website seemed really bland to me.  Pass.
