New coins coming soon.

There is a one ounce silver proof coming to the US mint Feb 29 to salute the WWII generation.  Not too many of that group left, very nice coin design

Didn't realise this was coming. Hopefully these 1/40oz coins will become more common across other themes.

Very tempted to buy but gold value is only £40! A Premium of 150% seems excessive

Probably because the 1/40th carded Britannia was pretty popular, pity they stopped them🤔😮

More likely to do with the more recent success of the Coronation and 75th birthday 1/40oz coins that came in the same packaging.

Yeah the coronation one did really well. Last time I checked I think they were going for £115 on eBay (I’m sure they are more now)

I cant remember but were the coronation ones £99.00? 

I'm sure they were less, could be wrong though

Probably, the 1/40 are popular, just a pity about the size! Would have been nice if the Britannia had been in this style of packaging, much better🤔

I’m sure they were cheaper than £99 - The coronation one really caught the eye of collectors.

I got three 🤣

Great little coins if you like them and a lot of detail in them too, but I flipped them.... I'll not be getting the dragon ones as it wont be worth the hassle to flip unless they go for a higher price and it can be hit and miss.... but I do actually like them, wonder if they will make the Dragon a bullion version?

All they are doing is some expensive gold ones, an expensive silver one and a bunc🤔

Missed out on the 1/4 proof so it’s either 1/40th or 1oz version 😂

I actually like these smaller fractional coins that come in a card or blister. I wouldn’t obviously go crazy on them but nice to have 1-2 from special series or occasions.

I said I like it didn’t say I would get it! 🤣

Fractional gold coins are pricey even worse via the royal mint. Folks already selling the 1/4 dragon proof on eBay. 
 

In other news just seen Atkinsons promoting the new Noah Ark 2024 coin. I actually quite like the design this year but not something I stack/collect.

Also I'm wondering if there any other coin that have a double sided extreme/high relief coin before.

I got two and graded one. Lots of details on such a small coin- puts the bigger coins to shame.

I bought the 1/4oz Gold purely because there was a mintage of 388. Let’s see how well it grades.  Be rude not to have a few 1/40 babies for it.

Are there any leaks on the 2024 gold Kangaroo?
