SOTD Gold Decimal Day 50p

[Zhorro]

The Royal Mint web site is getting ready to launch it new product.  Anyone odering it?

Hello, yes have ordered one. I like the design and it’s interesting as the first SOTD fold 50p.

 Would have preferred a lower mintage, at 700 that’s more then the proof.

I think this version may look better than the standard proof - I think they have enhanced the frosting on the reverse.

I pre-ordered one from a dealer and so I was simply watching what happened on the website.  At 9am there were 829 ahead of me in the queue, and I wasn't able to access the webpage until nearly 9.02!

I did registed with the Royal Mint to be kept informed about this issue, but as of 9.24am they had not sent me any details!

It’s still for sale...not one for me. I do like the newspaper sets though. Haven’t bothered with anything though.

Just received an email from the Coin Connection saying they have them in stock. Same as the RM price.

Enhanced frosting should be interesting!
