being a more bullion man, ive never really looked into older coins so much. learning a lot about this one, think this might not be par with "Una & Lion" but personally think this will do better than Three Graces overall 

I think they’ll do one version and move on (hopefully) 😬

Didn’t know there was a security edge variety of the original Gothic Crown

Just looking up info & prices on the original Gothic Crown and appears one of the most in demand versions the original Gothic Crown, was a "plain edge" 

Anyone think RM will be launching anything in the vein, plain edges have come on sovereigns past few years?

we know they dont like to let a good profit chance go to waste, to milk the heard some more - mooooo ?  

A little birdy has told me that this could be the case. Me thinks that you know more than you let on 🤣

So you had a phone call today as well? 

[Chrisplym]

A gentleman would never tell, but as I am not always a gentleman then maybe 😊

[NewCoins]

If they are going to do anything in the vein of a plain edge and lettered edge, I am hoping it's not going to be double the overall mintage or anything silly like that. If they do the same for the portrait too...

The sub 150 mintage swayed it for me and not to dearer premium added. Will take my chances for something else on Monday 

[Chrisplym]

Interesting. I wasn’t told about the higher premium 🤔

[James32]

I came here for information but ended up with bird talk 🤣

lol said this to a mate of mine, everyone will be selling the family silver to get liquid for the Gothic.   Not gone too mental on the 2022 sov, as it was so dam close to the goth.  If I end up getting Jack S with the gothic I’ll be gutted.

Credit card 0% offers on nearly all my cards, money transfer to bank MBNA for 3.9% for three years. Think there's more than 4% upside in these even if it means paying a bit of usury which I despise

Is that all?

My capital one has £300 limit and hasn't been increased in 50 years!!

[rlingford]

Based on previous releases, do we have a ballpark on pricing on 1oz, 2oz or 5oz silver? 

The seymour panther was 95 gbp for the 1oz proof. 

Does anyone remember the three graces pricing?

Yanks capital one were mega generous with limits pre 2008, think bank of Ireland/post office back capital one now, sadly their target market seems to be the highest interest/risk category. Not saying you are, but not all credit cards are created equally

From memory the 2oz was £250 & 5oz was £555.

If you get hold of a 1oz- keep hold of it- it would be a rarity 😉
