apologies - I didn't realise there was a difference. I assumed that if they were selling 1200 5 coin sets, there would be roughly 1200 5 sov proofs minted. 

Yeah you are right about the mintage of the £5 proof as it is only available in the 5-coin set.

But the mintages of the other coins are higher than the LEPs as they feature in multiple sets and some are sold individually. 

With ann additional 10 (approx.) of each denomination most of which won’t be sold, or sold as part of the Trial of the Pyx range, as has become the norm. 🙂

Interesting on the queue numbers again this morning. I had 3 browser windows open from 6am and opened my phone at approx 8.30am. At 9am all required a manual refresh and the numbers were fairly similar apart from the phone (!)

Edge 3046

Firefox 3456

Chrome 2406

Phone (Chrome) 952

still none the wiser about how it all works

Load balancing, each browser is a separate session thats queued independently - you're basically in the queue 4 times.

There is - look to the bottom of the reverse of the coin.

Does anyone think that the 1/2 sovereign may be near the top end of the price range

there is, but subtle

[paulmerton]

Well I am unimpressed. I have no coins and yet my credit card is now maxed out from the failed orders so I can't buy anything at all for the next week.

When is St George & The Dragon returning? 

[YorkshireStacker]

Got my order in with a geezer from Blackpool!

Initially joined RM queue at 9am and suprisingly only 4.5k-ish folk in front. Was expecting a much higher number, so either I got somewhat lucky with the rng and/or the Tuesday launch threw people off and/or no one is really that fussed for an extra expense so close to Christmas.

Lost my nerve with the RM website though before getting in, heard too many horror stories about the site coming unstuck and that's a hassle I don't need so binned them off and headed to Chards.

[Simmoleon]

Pretty huge mintage on the sovereign, thankfully I have an addiction so bought it 

[Paul]

just checking my credit card and looks like my payment didn't go through with the Mint for my the second five coin set  

One is better than none i suppose and at least im not £5k+ in hock 

[harrygill111]

Stock here for the 5 set:
