2022 Sovereign design revealed?

[Paul]

I'm not taking the plunge today for it - but think i will buy wait for a graded MS70 £5 BU to arrive on the market in Spring 2023 

If history repeats like this year, should be able to get one for £3000-£3200

It will pair nicely with the 2022 £5 BU 

Fingers crossed it is a matt finish again

Just my luck, I blow my Credit Card limit on the new Sovs, and then Royal Mint choose today to list a coin I've been after for ages on their site. 😕

Serious question, history tells us the 5 coin set is always a winner. 

Is this the first time the 4 coin set was only issued strictly by the mint ?

Just trying to make myself feel better about missing the big one 😆

That's been on there since yesterday morning. I didn't post it anywhere cos I thought it was quite expensive - is that a good price then?

I've been following a few on fleabay, and they go for £6-700.

Chards had one a few months ago for £635

This reminds me of the time Miss Blackpool was left buried up to her neck in sand on Blackpool Beach.

She asked me to dig her out, and when I asked "What's in it for me?", she said...

"Sand!"

even paying a premium on price today at +£900 on RRP, if you are planning to hold for 10years +

these are are destined to do well

in 2030, 8 years away the £5 gold proof out today will most likely be a £10k+ coin

Interesting, but a dealer and out of stock. I sometimes they put the price up in these situations to flush out a few sellers!

One went on the bay a month ago for 550

Apparently I've used up all of my forum likes for today. 👍

Don't want both sets. Said last night I wanted 4 coin minimum so that will do.

Even if I cancelled from the RM a refund would take a while and chards don't take credit card so my only other option would be a mad selling spree.

BBP have capped cc payments at £5k ffs. Plenty of credit and no where to use it. 

I'm content though 😌 probably 😆 

[Spanishsilver]

Just had the call off my account manager got a 5 coin set and a 4 coin set with free postage  

poor woman sounded stressed out 😰 

 

[sovereignsteve]

I've spent far too much but I'm still restless. Not used to seeing more buying opportunites this late in the day. Can't be a good sign😐

Ah well, I can't be bothered to cancel part of my Sov order, so I'll just have to hope they still have some at the end of the month. I have the 2oz Silver anyway.
