2022 Royal Mint Annual Sets

[goldhunter]

There is also an individual Platinum proof(3oz) £5 piedfort with the shield reverse and equestrian obverse. Mintage 52.

Managed to pre order one from a dealer.

There are so many variations my head hurts

Would you know the mintage of the 1oz platinum proof? Thanks.

Did you see the 12oz tri-metallic special edition VIP only issue? The inner section is platinum (4oz), middle section is gold (4oz) and outer section is silver (4oz). The reverse is the same design as with the new Crown and the obverse is a special new portrait of the Queen. The mintage is 0 as I made this up. Sorry.

I struggle to see much appeal in the platinum coins as they just look like silver at a glance. Sure, they won't tarnish or go milky, but that's quite a premium to pay for the luxury.

And if you even want to sell them, just imagine how hard it will be to make it stand out that this particular platinum jubilee coin is made out of platinum when all the other similar silver versions also have "platinum" in their description 😁

Still, it's pretty cool that they made them this year.

Maybe a nicer way to truly commemorate the event would be to put all of the platinum 50ps into circulation where they will probably be spent many more times than they'll be found.

You had me going there. I remember @mr-deadhad a tri metallic coin in the past, don’t think it was as large as your imagination though.

Anyone else get this email?

Yes. Just now. It sounds a bad time to be doing scheduled maintenance. Presumably it takes a good while to add all of those variations

Fixed it for you.

[GoldDiggerDave]

Do you think the IT guy who dropped one with the wrong £5 coin in the silver proof set has been fired and he's getting his own back? 😂

[NewCoins]

I predict a terrible show tomorrow!

I don't think I am buying anything but might have a look if I get time.

Anyone interested in anything? Or is there just too much to choose from ?!

[GoldDiggerDave]

I'm not buying anything......It's too much too soon with too many options. I'm sure there will be some good coins the gold £5 will look good I think.

Might buy a 1oz silver and the 2oz sliver depending on mintage figures

No gold for me unfortunately, too soon after the Sovereign and Gothic Crown release to splash out. 

Thinking I may go for a 1oz Silver and / or the Piedfort Silver 50p.

Weird timing, I won't do any big move right before any big sales anticipated.  Or RM anticipated it is not a big stuff for today launch😅

Tough one this, for me. Buy the event ? Buy the design ? Not particularly in love with any of the designs to be honest, which leaves me with the event…..

Don’t get caught up in the hype.

My advice to myself is to hold off for the coins that will really be classics - like the upcoming SotD Sovereign, or even the regular Proof Sovereign and the Gothic Crown if you can get your hands on more.

Because this…

The Royal Mint has struck every UK coin of The Queen’s reign and we are marking this once-in-a-lifetime moment with one of our largest coin collections to date.

[ArgentSmith]

Bit of a joker in the pack but given the current spot price and the occasion I think the 1oz platinum might do very well long term depending on mintage. Probably not in my lifetime though.

Got two proof sovs as well as two 2oz Quarter Arms and Portraits along with the 5oz Quarter Arms and Portrait, so keeping it to the classics.

I agree with your words completely. But good luck to those chasing these current coins. Each to their own. Enjoy

Any mintage information on the different design and variants yet?

There are so many types that it is becoming confusing... 😅

Could be a bit of premium on these due to it actually being her Platinum Anniversary……will be fascinating to see the ramp up on these.
