My 2oz gold 'plain-edge' & order reference has appeared in my Open orders  Goody goody !  

Hopefully the RM additional +£255 "exclusivity tax" will be worth it in the long run

£5,250 RRP for it   

Jeez, makes you think how far your stacking journey has come, was only five years or so ago, i was buying 1/10's krugerrands 

 

Good to see your stacking journey has gone well. This should give inspiration to some who are starting out just now.

That's going to be the coin to have in the future.

Thanks @ArgentSmith Yeah, it will have some potential for sure.  As they have been offered directly to biggest spender collector's (which im not one i may add), they will be in tight hands, so those buyers who would be out to flip wont have had access to purchase it. and with only a teeny weeny 125 mintage, brilliant classic design, established and recognised worldwide, original only having a handful ever done ini gold 

It certainly ticks a good few boxes of doing great long term and be in demand

I have just had the same conversation with my OH. It was only 2.5 years ago, I was picking up single sovs and a few oz's of silver bullion

I have just found this post on on of the collectors groups of bookface about Britannia Coin Company that may be of interest to some who missed out yesterday 

( Copied & pasted in its entirety )

"  Britannia Coin Company have been asked this question by a few customers today:

If I purchase the Gothic Crown Quartered Arms release, how can I obtain the Gothic Crown Victoria Portrait release?

Britannia Coin Company would like to assure any buyers, if they purchase the first issue, they will be offered the second issue.

 

The second issue will not be available to anyone who has not purchased the first issue.

 

The second issue coin is likely to be more popular - Queen Victoria's Gothic portrait (This is where the coin gets its name from!).

 

Hope this helps.  "

Congratulations and enjoy it!

If for some reason you ever get drunk enough and are looking to increase your stack, I will offer you 3x 1oz gold coins of your choice 😁

Yes I know I'm being generous with my offer but just trying to get my feedback up😅

i may sell it and corner the market buying up all the under-loved and unappreciated Diversity/Crystal maze gold 50ps, what could possibly go wrong

Thank you Paul, it would be something special to have these 4 gold coins all gathered...For the moment I hold my breath with the Gothic Crown

Today I received will melt when these babies get delivered! 😜

To be honest I have no idea what I have ordered and what I will receive, my open orders are all messed up and don't seem to match the amount of charges on my bank account

@GreatBritishBullion and that's only the start of it mate, if you have ordered multiple items they will all come via different couriers  on different days and to put a cherry on the top they don't even give you email conformation so you are waiting around like a tit in a trance and you are looking out for every van that drives past your house for the next 2 weeks!..........But we keep coming back for more!

@Mtaybar for all our P ing and moaning we do thrive off it.  The day you don’t have to queue, they have what you want and it comes the next day, will be the day you don’t want it😂😂😂😂

[Robda1986]

Hopefully we don't see too many damaged coins in the next week or so 🤞🙄

I got nothing Monday but enjoyed the chase, it was like a free buy in to a poker tournament. Didn’t lose anything.

£25 postage absolutely shocking I’d say !
