i was ensured recently by more then one person on here

there is no que jumping by having a accounts manager ? 

I was wrong. Apologies. If you are spending enough to be in the platinum plus or bought one of the Una or 3G 2oz golds then you may have been offered a 2oz plain edge coin. 

This is a coin that is not being offered on the website to the ‘general public’. That is a business decision taken by the Royal Mint and it is what it is.

I have not been offered the 2oz plain edge gold. I asked about this on Thursday when I spoke with my account manager and the above is the response I was given.

Hi Paul. Yes, I am lucky enough to have been offered one.

If the planets align I have a 'plain edge' coming, but have been promised I will definitely 100% get one either milled edge/plain edge as I don't spend enough to directly reserve one, but as a previous buyer for previous 2oz gold in series, he will know once all platinum marque members had all been contacted/offered, fingers crossed......... Here's hoping ....

[MancunianStacker]

Seems fair that those who bought the first gold should be offered this coin, they were there first before the mad 🐬 appeared 👍🏻 

[James32]

Just off phone with my neighbours account manager and I have been promised if I'm not lucky enough on the day I will receive first refusal on the new frosty the snow man 50pence piece 🤷‍♂️

Do we think these  'never available to the general public' is a good decision going forward, as folk buying them will be minted cash wise so unlikely to come to market and added ultra low mintages. Good chances for upsides/profits

HODL'ing again this one again sorry. Got a good feeling this plain edge will be better than three graces values, but not Una and lion levels

Also consider that some of those at the platinum plus level are able to maintain that level by the fact that they are running a business and that flipping allows them to maintain a good business and continue to purchase high end items.

The % of the 'general public' who end up as flippers is unlikely to curry much favour with the Royal Mint IMO.

Yeah it's like a vicious circle isn't it, I'm just glad I managed to join the lift at the ground floor, taking a speculative punt on the Una and lion. Might be able to pay off the mortgage after it's all over with! Crackers isn't it

They've got their pound of flesh from day 1 in the daftly inflated RRP

Good point. I think I meant the individuals who make a ‘business’ of doing this but likely do it under the radar - rather than the businesses that have contracts with the Mint etc and so don’t fall under the mint Marque headings etc….

Yes. If they have a British legal tender face value denomination they qualify as CGT free.
