First queue I have missed in a long while, due to having a continuation order. I best take a look anyway ... 😀

Just had an email from the RM, my silver lion is on its way!

I would not be surprised if these are available like the panther for a while yet. 

I think this series is a slow burner start that will be very profitable by the end. 

The fact we have bullion versions of it coming out now will just make this more and more popular as time goes on. 

It's almost exactly how the Queen's Beasts went at the start - although arguably the QB designs were better 🙂 

Still think this is a sleeper set with big potential

Yes, but gone quicker than the panther. When I logged in for that on its launch day I picked mine up quite late in the morning under ‘in stock’

If it's "awaiting stock", it doesn't mean they've gone. In some cases that's the stock status upon release.

Despatch notice for the 1/4 gold just received but the two coin set looks to be issued in March. This is good considering I am still waiting for Gothics and Jubilee coins!!

[Slam]

Anyone else more worried about having a good quality set by the end of the series and hassle of returning etc during collecting than if the coins make profit or not in the end?

Its put a damper on things with the Quality and it seems that I am sending coins back more often than not at the moment. Maybe I need or is anyone doubling up the purchases and expect a post office trip on every release? (So keep the good one, if you get one and send back the bad ones.)

Thanks

Made the decision, i'm taking a "time out" from the vast majority of new release purchases, and will be spending 2022 paying off the 0% APR debts of 2021 purchases

i will only be purchasing next Great Engravers at Royal Mint at RRP this year

Any spare cash/winnings that come me way, i will be buying up more 2022 proof sovereigns for the long run, slow burn appreciation 

Wise ? or anyone's thoughts on this ??

Honestly, not worried.

The hassle of returning, yeah that can be a little burdensome but I don't doubt having a good set at the end. 

As to potential profit, no guarantee and you shouldn't be buying proof coins for guaranteed profit, but I believe they will be a good desirable product.

2 OZ silver no longer available. Looks like a lot had choose previously the 2 OZ continuity option

Please ignore, the above, it won't delete....

I did literally did just manage to order the 2 coin set, at c10 o' clock although showing awaiting stock (shipping March???🤷). Have continuity anyway.

it not a dump - its missing frosting on the coin surface 

[NewCoins]

Right now, I am more excited for the box!

I think its a good design, but looking forward to filling the Box. As you do.

A mintage change I have observed:

1 oz gold is down to 400 from 550 on the Seymour Panther

Otherwise I believe the mintages are all the same for the Lion as the Panther.

 

2oz gold mintages have been halved

[westminstrel]

Looks like they changed the complimentary 10-coin case to come with coin 3?

It says so on both the Lion and Panther continuity pages.

They can't keep moving the goal posts like that. It was definitely coin 2.

[FFposh]

Just a heads up, was looking at 4 X 2oz Ag bullion. RM wanted £260ish delivered. Chards took my order and with delivery, the total came to  £240ish although delivery could be a few weeks. Reasonable saving unless you want the bullion in the next couple of days!!👍👍

Au will have to wait for pay day🤣

Probably find that those who ordered from the first coin will get a box with this one and anyone wanting all of them from today will get the box with the third. Matter of how many boxes they have made up already I imagine.

That’s what I initially thought when I saw the specification on the Lion continuity. That’s why I went back to check the specification for the Panther.

Anyway, I’m personally not too bothered. It’ll come either now, or in 6 months with coin 3. No biggie.

What’s nice is that the RM is offering the complimentary box even to those who may not have got the first coin direct from them. So kudos to the RM for that.

It is, even though it is not really costing them much. Interesting to see what the boxes by themselves will eventually cost!

[dikefalos]

My boxes are in open orders, but looks like they send them along with the lion. Maybe just new 10 coin set orders will get the box with coin three.

Oooh exciting. So is the box coming separately? Is it the same black glossy top box they’ve shown?

[James32]

I've the coin in open orders but no box 🤣
