Silver proof RM coins and annual sets


Recommended Posts

What is the appeal to purchasers of Royal Mint silver proof coins when base metal versions are available ?

Is it a throwback to when when coins contained silver - is it not a 'real' coin unless it has precious metal content ?

The premium on silver proof coins far exceeds the premium on base metal proof coins. Surely the difference should be the cost of the raw material only - the production costs will be the same. The 13 coin 2022 proof set retails for £210 versus £647 for the silver set. So there is a premium of £440 for the £65 silver content.

I think i've just talked myself out of ever buying a silver proof set again 🤨

I acquired last year's set in nickel, the set was advertised in the Metro, that's how I started😜 Still don't need it in silver. Was not struck with this year's set although I do have the nickel horseback crown on order🥳
