Unless they have made a mistake they seem to imply they will be selling it.

Thanks for posting the link. I had closed it this morning along with about 50 other Royal Mint Completer tabs. 

Very interesting!

I thought it would be 10 days, Do u know how comes yours dispatched ? 

dont know ?? speediest dispatch ive had today. 

items purchased with a royal mint credit facility - so payment might not have been subject to fraud checks etc if using a credit card to buy possibly

Would like to have a box that can accommodate 11 coins....But 1 tricky issue, whether the 11th hole is at 5oz/2oz/1oz size 😅😅

It's a bit like the 19th hole at a golf club.

(Freudian slip there, I originally typed gold club)

Nope - i complained to the CEO direct about c**p service, repeated multiple delays to an order, minting quality and got my own personal handler account manager to keep me sweet, as a result  !

I contacted RM after ordering, to ask what the chances were of cancellation. This may have been precautionary so it's difficult to read in to it, but I was told it depends on how many orders go through and cancellations are a realistic possibility.

I then contacted Chard's. I was told they know exactly how many they have and will remove the availability once they have sold their allocation, so you can trust you will receive one if you order from Chard's.

Thanks for the mention.

All of our allocation of one ounce gold sold out about shortly after the RM sold out, although I don't think we had sold a single piece until then.

We have been hoping to get a further allocation, but we won't know until it happens.

Ours don't come direct from the RM, but they do come with added air miles!

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?

https://directbullion.com/2021-1oz-24k-gold-uk-queens-beast-the-completer/

 

So that's about a 9% premium.

What's a fair premium? 

Our 2021 Queen's Beasts White Greyhound of Richmond 1 oz Gold Bullion Coin are from 6.15% to 7.0 depending on quantity, and I would expect similar premiums on the Completers when they arrive.

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

It could just go the other way, it everyone buys the "Completer", and sells all the rest! 🙂

So that's why I couldn't buy a 2 ounce gold proof today, apart from the RM website doing its usual tricks. Every time I clicked on an available product, the site failed to go to the product page, and instead re-cycled me back to the entry landing page!

Actually, we did look at the Gazette Privy Council notice at the time, but failed to sift through it thoroughly enough. 

What would be on the back side?

mine are due tomorrow  

 

Their packing and shipping department must have got their finger out, that's impressive.

(We are still beavering through a backlog of deliveries, although doing it in parallel with new orders.)

[LolRasta]

Anyone else coins dispatched ?

Dont worry, its a very random process. Ive had coins next day, a week later a month later...  😄 i’ve had emails confirming shipment then the coin not land for days and coins turn up that ive received no notification of shipment on at all on. But they always get delivered.

I was joking, but stranger things do happen.

Perhaps we should have bought a stack of the 10 kilo silver ones, and offered to trade for peoples' old, small ones.

[HerefordBullyun]

I am on the waiting list for my proof silver version. Im in unfartunate situation only to live on and afford cans of baked beans, being a lowly paid IT scumbag, who just shouts loudly down the phone to people all day 'saying turn it on and off again!' And obviously breaking wind loudly between meals and calls.  

My real name is Robert

Yours  R.soles

Haven’t seen and 1oz proof or 5oz silver on sale yet........ flippers losing their touch 😂😂      I do think the royal mint could do a little research and crack down on it.      Looks like the bond coins and the band coins are getting hammered now

Hammered?

Is that how they get all the marks and scratches on them?
