And then is also another special range with this reverse design and the horse portrait on the obverse which will be released in a few days - but this design is only for larger denominations.

I am baffled by the RM.  They have a brilliant design on the £5, and then they go and produce this design for larger denoinations!

As it looks a bit like an urn, I assumed it was designed in case the Queen died this year (like the way Prince Philip was involved in the design of his mourning coin).

It looked like a cornucopia to me - plus, I don’t see shamrock.

I didn’t know Prince Philip was involved in the design of his coin.

I’m out then- far too many- particularly if Matte- initial impetus then a nosedive. 

It is indeed matte and plain edge with the same coat of arms design as the proof.

"The special edition £5 coin features an original portrait of The Duke to celebrate his remarkable life. The coin’s design was approved by The Duke before his death in April this year and is being launched on Armed Forces Day 2021."

It looks a bit like Prince Charles. Those handles as ears etc.

I remember this coin.  Thanks!

What a messy and unnecessarily confusing release. I am glad several of you here were able to clear it up. It does seem like the RM are trying to do a little too much at the moment and tripping over themselves.

I think the £5 gold will be future classic, mintage of just 100 - plain edge -  iconic year

Ticks every box  

Grade them all, break the rest of the set up to recoup your costs.  and HODL the £5 gold for years to come

I see the RM have sorted out the photos of the Silver Proof Annual Set:  https://www.royalmint.com/our-coins/ranges/annual-sets/2022-annual-coin-sets/the-2022-united-kingdom-silver-proof-coin-set/

Yes, crushing people's hopes of buying a rare variety after forking out hundreds of pounds!

🙂 Hi Guys, I just want to confirm this:

The Platinum coin will be released on January 6th, and it will be 3 ounces, and the expected price between GBP3000-GBP3500.

Is this right?

 I actually really like it, though now you point out the urn I can't unsee it!

Looking back on today, on here...well it went mad for this set...the 50p reverse, as someone else said...looks rubbish, and I mean the visualisation, not the core concept...will pop in on Thursday to see what the horseback crown actually is...

Thanks. Was this based on a previous coin release, or your estimation, or you found the price on the RM website?

😟 It's really too expensive! I calculated my budget and I cannot afford that!

 

[goldhunter]

 I am stunned

I have just checked my open orders on the RM website and discovered that I have a 2022 gold proof Annual set in my open orders which I did not order.

How can this have happened?

I did order last years set but returned it due to Quality issues.

Could I have inadvertently signed myself up onto some automatic re -ordering schedule when I placed my order last year?

The dealer that I placed an order with for this coin informed me what the issue price is.

They have an automatic reorder tab for dome products right enough, probably that. Easy to cancel I would hope.

Thanks.....

Why the mint did not do 1 ounce one! £5495 is really hard to lock in a single coin.......

Isn't there supposed to be a 1oz platinum proof as well for £2190?

Or there's the platinum version of the jubilee 50p for £1145.

When you purchase one of these gold sets there is a sign up option, if you do sign up you are automatically given one of the sets every year for the foreseeable future, there is a brief description of this option at the bottom of the RM page for the gold set, looks as if you have been signed up?
