closed Britannia Silver Privy 2018 Dog & 2019 Pig

[Pete]

Can anyone in the USA help please or point me in the right direction.

I need 2 coins for completing my Britannia silver coin set.
The 2018 one ounce silver Britannia with the smooth edge and the 'dog' privy embossed on the rim.
Also the 2019 with "pig" privy.

These coins were manufactured exclusively I think for A-Mark and I believe their distributor, to the likes of us mere mortals, is called Goldline.
I am unable to access Goldline from the UK getting a 403 Forbidden message and this might be because they don't want our money.

If anyone knows of a supplier or can get hold of either or both of these coins please send me a PM.
Strange that the other privies are readily available and I just bought the latest 2020 "rat" for regular price.

If the price is reasonable and not highly speculative I could perhaps purchase a tube of 25 coins and we can discuss compensation for assistance.

Many thanks

I wouldn't mind helping you with this.  Did a little searching on Goldine, couldn't find it there, I did find mention of it here:

I haven't called them yet though.

I spoke to gold line a while back about getting the pigs in. They were sold out and hinted this is the lowest production Britannia in existence. I am yet to find a source who has them, and been looking for a year!

by the way the 2020 rat privy us available at BBP. If you are collecting edge privys then might be worth grabbing them from them, haven’t seen it elsewhere for sale.

Thanks - I already received my rats.
Only chance of obtaining a dog privy at a realistic price is from the USA - maybe a pawnbroker ?
BBP and others still show the dog privy but out of stock.
Wonder who bought them and why.
Earlier privies are abundant and regular bullion priced.
I've never seen the pig listed in the UK or Europe and not any appearing on eBay in the USA either.
As for limited mintage I had gold Britannias that were extremely rare in terms of mintages but it made diddly squat on the price when I ended up selling them below spot.

I have seen the pigs - they were bought in a group order a while ago on the stackers groups. Seen them change hands at £70-100 each...

Guess there will be a vacancy or two in my set box for some time.
Having said that I still recall the very large premiums paid for the Britannia / Horse Mules.
Several sold for almost a grand each before falling to £100 and now who knows, maybe £50 ?

Hi I have also been searching for the pig privy to finish my date run with regard to the dog privy I did my dog privy of peacemaker he is on this group not sure if he as any left if you do find a pig can you let us no please

That pig seems to be impossible to get hold off. Your not the one missing it from your Britannia collection I've been searching for the past year as well.😔

[JamieSimon48]

Really wow that's crazy I've heard that the pig is being readily sold in Canada I'm just trying to get my sources to find them over there. 

[clemsonman]

Unfortunately don't have either of these coins.  Also tried searching and came up with nothing.  Do you have any interest in 2017 Britannia's with the Trident Privy?  I do have some of those available.

Thanks for checking. The trident ones are readily available in the UK and I already have some of these but thanks anyway!

Its a bad state of affairs when UK residents can't even buy their own bullion coins and have to try and source from abroad.

Even worse than that - 

When the first 10 oz Queens Beast Lion of England was released from the Royal Mint, ignoring VAT, you could buy it cheaper - significantly cheaper - from a dealer in the USA than directly from the mint itself. I called the RM to protest and they said that they were not responsible for the price set by dealers. Right I said but how can they be up to 10% cheaper !!

[JamieSimon48]

It's a joke theres a pig on ebay with bids of over £200 quid the thing is this coin I'd standard bullion Britannia with pig markings around the edge deff agree where are all the pigs gone tut tut royal mint hang your head in shame !!!!
