The Royal Tudor Beasts - Royal Mint Launch Event, Oct 7

[FlorinCollector]

I can’t wait 😀😀😀

Well, the RM Lunar series looks like it could have looked way better than it did/does. There are no other RM sets out there that look desirable. As for this new set, the concept is solid, the three Seymour beasts and Tudor Dragon sound intriguing. the overlapping beasts may well be redesigned. I quite like this design, says Royal heraldry IMHO, the tail seems to be arranged in that position to fill negative space, ready to unthink Jody Clark designs for now, and will probably get this coin in silver proof🙄 or try to acquire this set in nickel🤔 and obtain the completer in silver proof😊 and hope I don't miss out on the silver quarter ounce set🤪 Does anyone know how many designs they will release each year?

No more Jody Clark, David Lawrence took his shot. First proof issue, the Seymour Panther.

I'll probably go for the 2oz silver and BU cupronickel. The 2oz for me and the 'crowns' for re-sale. The cupronickel coins of the Queens Beasts appeared to do better profit wise (as a percentage of purchase price) than any of the PMs.

I'd be surprised if any of these coins will command a premium like some of the earlier QBs did - pretty sure everyone and their mum will be buying multiple coins / editions from day one...

And another thing, spot the difference;

[Stuntman]

I'm probably in for the series, assuming that they make them in 1/4 oz and/or 1 oz gold bullion.

I quite like that first design.  The lettering reminds me of the Perth Mint Swans, Emus etc.

Let's wait and see how the bullion coins turn out.

Who would like a Kings Beasts

Maybe we see a kings return with a Kings Beasts Series by Jody Clark from the Commonwealth Mint. Releasing a 11 coin set with the Completer in the middle on 6th October would be kind of Blitzkrieg in coin business

[AuricGoldfinger]

Hmm not blown away by this at all. To be honest the whole beast theme has worn thin on me. Have the full QB 1oz gold set and completor, but yet more beasts? I hope the design is better than that.
 

Pleased to hear its no JC, he did great but again I’m a bit bored of his newer designs they’ve turned a bit cartoony.

 

Im hoping the 2022 sovereigns don’t disappoint.

Upon reflection, I might just get this set in nickel BUNC. Not at all keen on spending around £1000 on ten silver proof coins just for them to be swarmed in milk spots years down the line.

need to see their pricing on pre-order and sales before deciding on each BU  issue

If there is a Q&A can you ask them if they intend on employing any quality assurance for this series? Unless the milk spots on the QB series are supposed to represent bird sh*t on the statues....

🙂 I am pretty sure that will get asked a few times

[GoldStatue]

I just assumed they'd release the kings beast when a king ascends to the throne.

At least this time around no one will get caught out with the surprise release of a completer coin and have to quickly amend their display cases to fit it in 😀

The first design seems a bit average to me, the panther is at a different angle to the previous queens beasts which seems to create a lot more empty space on the coin, I guess that is going to be a characteristic of this new set.

To be fair the queens beast set is going to be a hard act to follow, everyone liked the majority of the designs and it seemed to have sold well all over the place.

[AndrewSL76]

Anyone else the 'today I returned' thread is going to get very busy on the 11 October 2021?

[flim]

will it get delayed due to gas shortage issue? any idea are the BU coins 1 oz or 2 oz etc?

[Midasfrog]

If anyone needs a Granny im selling one to fund this next series of beasts I could always buy her back if the collection does well 😂😂

[caf84]

BU and 1/4 gold (assuming they do it) for me. Same as the QBs

[west6]

After the 10-coin Queen's Beast, suddenly there came the completer. Now you think that's all, da da... Hail the royal beasts from the Hampton Court!

I don't know whether this would become a hot series. I am indeed satisfied with my QB sets. 😊😊

I had the email too. I saw this pop up on youtube the other day, the Royal mint are doing a premiere for The Royal Tudor Beasts launch event on 6 October 2021 at 19:45 GMT

@Shell I have the BUNC versions apart from the couple that are really expensive. Nice change.

Last time I did 1oz Bullion gold. I think i’m going to do quarter ounce bullion this time because I am skint for the next few months.

For these, I will probably do the same I did with the Queen's Beasts.....cupro-nickel and 2 ounce silver bullion ones.

If that's the design it's an absolute effing shocker

The last person I know of who did this was so shocked by the hostile reaction they ended up in tears and senior management had to intervene...
