Very interesting. Much appreciated!

Yes, very interesting! The Winnie the Pooh ones will be popular. I am hoping that the mintages will be low so that they are worth collecting.

I agree. I suspect they'll mint a whole load of them being that Winnie the Pooh has always been popular. But, it all remains to be seen!

I suspect that the silver proof will be 20,000 or 25,000. The gold might be a winner if it has a low montage.

Red Cross coins out today from 9am!

Too many made up reasons to market New gold coins at inflated premiums. Greater fool theory comes to mind.

Any ideas when the Winnie the Pooh coin will be released?

It will be interesting to see the mintage figures. Demand is bound to be high so even with high mintage figures it could still be a winner. 

[Cornishfarmer]

Very poor designs in my opinion 

[mustynewb]

Hmmm think I'll grab one... But do I want 2. I never sell

[shawy2510]

I like the look of them but gold are so expensive

[mustynewb]

I grabbed one of the silvers in the end. I had a mini idea that i'd grab a gold until i saw the price!

Silver mintage is massive. Will be interesting to see if it sells out.

It's only 3,000 higher than the 2016 Peter Rabbit, so if it's a poular design / subject, that mintage won't kill it entirely. The fact that the silver proof 50p's seem to be less popular than they were in recent years might though.

Pooh is a 9 coin series?  Thats a good wheeze

My mistake. I confused it with the colourised BU. No sign of a sell out on the gold yet.

Yeah they're going whole hog on this one.

[Chrisplym]

I believe that all of the silver and gold Winnie the Pooh coins will sell out. I have bought a gold and two silver. My favourite is the Christopher Robin one.

[Chrisplym]

The gold proof coin isn’t showing on the website tonight so I am guessing that they are reassessing their stock level.
