The one oz for £2,315 might be something I get. Always wanted to get into collecting the beast might as well get the very last one. 

This isn’t so much as the last QB though.

It’s more a finale. It’s like being at the theatre when the cast come back on the stage after they’ve all left the stage after their own act.

You know when they all come back on stage at the end and bow. That’s what this coin is.

It’s the Queens Beasts finale.

But nice none the less.

Good point. 

Its also like having all the beast without collecting each one. All together. 

Are you thinking of Getting one ?

The Queens Beast series has been a very popular series of coins in both silver and gold.

My opinion, I don’t see why this wouldn’t be as popular. Perhaps even more so with those that have bought all of the previous QB’s but also those that haven’t bought a single one. The latter being myself.

They could be the new Una & Lion or Three Graces or they might not.

Who knows.

Not really thinking they'll be anywhere near a Great Engraver's release but should do pretty well.

😭 All sold out. I would’ve gone for the 1oz silver but... tough cheese. 😭

[NewCoins]

I like it. I think the 1oz silver is still available ? A couple of thousand I think.

I went for the 5oz silver. Its hopefully a good size to appreciate the intricate design.

1 oz Silver still available at Westminster Collection, Coinster !!!!!!

[MrB]

Ordered a 1oz silver proof. With around 7000+ being made I should get one. 

Was waiting for 9am and then at 8:57 got a call from office. Promptly forgot about the coins until 9:09. Waaaaay too late. 

Would have liked the 5oz, but the 1oz will do.

First in their 1100 year history. Must be a flawless coin. 😂😂

This is getting too silly!

Well, my nerves are shattered! 

I’ve got to say I did like the look of the completer design and so I decided to try and buy one.  Initially there were 864 people in the Royal Mint’s queue before me and so I did not access the website until 9.01am.  It was then a matter of trying to take in what was still available and what was affordable.  At this point I was interrupted by an email from the CC, but on looking at the attachment they did not seem to have much (their gold coin was sold out and so only the 1oz proof and the BU coins were available) – so back to the Mint’s website.

I managed to get one of the Ten-Ounce silver proofs (limited edition of 125) into my basket and then I entered all my details into the checkout page – after which my bank promptly declined my transaction and said they would be in touch.  A minute later the phone rang and it was the bank’s computerised vetting system.  I managed to prove I existed even though I was beginning to wonder what was the point!  The voice then told me to wait for two minutes before retrying the transaction.  Luckily whilst I was waiting I realised I needed to re-enter my banking details, and after waiting what seemed like a lifetime I pressed the submit button again.

To my astonishment the transaction seemed to go through and I subsequently received an “Order confirmation” email!  Though there was the ominous “please note your order is subject to availability”.  Given the number of cancellations of the “Three Graces” orders, I am not celebrating yet.

ordered mine off for grading after

[LawrenceChard]

Royal Mint missed opportunity.

They should have issued one with an issue limit of 666

[Oliman]

I had the 5 ounce and 10 silver ounce in my basket. Details all entered, bank approved back to order screen. Tried numerous times couldnt get either 😤

Same here, had the 1oz gold do exactly the same. 💩

[richatthecroft]

Well, it didn’t take too long for an eBay listing to appear 🙄

A bullion dealer seems to be selling a BU 1oz gold version for about £1,400 (and the design is different).  Anyone know anything about this?

Quite funny thing is with mintage numbers, e.g. 5oz silver on RM said to have max mintage of 435, while LPM, Hong Kong dealer, says it is 2500

I can see the price of the original beasts increasing now as more collectors join in to get back issues 👍
