Awsome.... I'm glad I never jinxed it for her 👍😆 

Now for a cup of tea and the satisfied feeling you have post successful queue.

Got an email from RM 2 hours after the start this morning! Good job I’m not buying!🫢

was doing the exact same thing. Managed to snag a pair of tickets for my daughters. Instant legend status attained…for at least a day

So £700 for a quarter ounce? I think a £50 hike is a bit much!

Plus they've billed me for the silver 2 ounce which I'm fairly certain I cancelled given the grief I had last time trying to get a proof quality coin! 

[Gordy]

the site hasnt closed for the queue, i'm soooooo disappointed

[Scootermuppet]

Yes, and a 1 Kilo Silver too...

Yep, a little more expensive than last time at £210, but with the lower minatage, I'll take that... 👊

Forget the coin, where's the boxes 🤣. I made a deal with myself after the 2nd coin in series. If they are not supplying the boxes on the 3rd coin I'm cancelling the subscription. 😬

The Royal Mint are certainly cute in their pricing.  As the spot price falls the premium on proof coins rises. 

Trebles all round!

Definitely cute, i noticed 1oz silver proof  prices gone up but mintage gone down by 1000. Assume that is normal practice?

 

 

[StackerBritt]

I signed up for the 1oz series.  First 2 were £90, this one is £105 based on the direct debit they have just taken.

[westminstrel]

Do you see the order and does it mention the free box?

Couldn't see it on my orders this morning so assumed it's under the existing 10 coin collection order although I got a generic email saying my coins are on their way. RM's order system is a shocker though so who knows! The last email back in Feb said it would be with the 3rd coin....

I wonder if that’s the reason for the huge price jump in the silvers. The box isn’t really free - everyone’s chipping in, whether they’ve signed up for it or not. 😏

[FlorinCollector]

Anyone buying the series of 1/4 gold had their money taken yet?

Yes just after midnight (they were keen!)

They can try and take the money for my 2x 1oz silvers but they won't get it.... My card changed lol. I think I'm done with these proofs.

I’ve not seen the order yet, just the £105 missing from my bank account.  
 

I recall when I signed up that they said there would be a ‘free’ box coming with (or after) the 3rd coin but haven’t heard anything more about it.

Ill need to phone mine hasnt been taken 😕

[FlorinCollector]

Phoned up and all sorted 👌👌

[Cogload]

Am sort of bemused as my RM email says "the 2nd coin in the collection" after the Lion. 

Was the Seymour Panther a figment of my imagination?
