Rosalind Franklin Silver piedfort 50p

Hi everyone,

What is your opinion on these are they worth buying .925 proof.

Thanks

Hello - good question. 

For me the answer lies in whether you like the coin or not. If you are buying the coin as a long term investment then you could probably do worse. If you want a quick turn around or flip, I would advise against it - look at how the last few piedfort 50p have done. I could be wrong (and others here will confirm this, if true!) but the secondary market for these coins is not great - most people who collect these are able to get them when they are released. 

If you like the coin - get it! (but perhaps consider going direct - not least because it is £125 at Westminster and £95 at the Royal Mint) - here: https://www.royalmint.com/our-coins/events/rosalind-franklin/2020-uk-50p-silver-proof-piedfort-coin/

Brilliant response and to be fair no i don't like it, got more drawn to the fact they said limited and being new to this I thought ok that could be good but wanted to ask the experts in here. As you stated the people that would want this will obtain this upon release, well most of them. 

I will give this a miss.

Thank you for your help and guidance
