Royal Mint Tudor Beasts Series

[Pete]

The first in a new series following on from the very popular Queens Beasts - The Tudor Beasts.
The one ounce Platinum 2022 Lion of England dwarfed by its 10oz silver cousin.

Very nice. I was a bit underwhelmed by the quarter oz gold but maybe only because it arrived with the 2 oz silvers

very shinny edge , it is nice coin but......... RM silver  will milk 

[FlorinCollector]

Nice platinum collection you will have mate once you hit I presume what will be 20 beasts and 2 completers. Some value in one set alone. 

[Stuntman]

Very nice, Pete.

I have resisted the Tudor Beasts in all sizes, metals and finishes so far.  Pictures of these Lions are not helping!

A complete set of the 10oz coins would be a sight to behold.

I finally caved today and bought the platinum Tudor Beasts Lion (and a 2022 platinum Britannia).

That's it now for me, as far as physical platinum is concerned.  I am very happy with what I have.

I ordered a Tudor Yale from a well known dealer a month ago and still not seen it.
Anyone else finding availability an issue ?

I ordered another Yale from tavex at weekend and it arrived safe already. Have had Yale and lions from Atkinson's and Sharps over the past weeks/months and all arrived in the typical day or two 👍🏼

We should start a new dealer "Tavards" 🤔 free postage obviously.

Yes but I was enquiring to see if it was coincidentally the same dealer "struggling " with the gold.

My supplier ends in “post”.

I set up a stock alert with the RM and was notified they had stock - how many I don’t know - that lasted maybe a couple of hours only.  Had my supplier a back order on the RM I would have assumed it would have been automatically fulfilled but sadly no. I’ve been offered a refund but I want the Pt coin so what can I do if they cannot supply and the price elsewhere ( if any dealer has one to sell ) has significantly risen ?

I would hang in there, more will be made/allocated to dealers in due course. If the mint would slow down on release after release and get their priorities straight, things would be more straightforward.

LPM has 2023 1oz Great Britain The Royal Tudor Beasts Series - The Yale of Beaufort .9995 Platinum BU Coin in stock right now

[Pete]

Still no sign of my Pt Tudor Beast whilst the RM has had them them in stock for well over a week.
I'll give the supplier another week ( made several phone calls ) to ship but what if they don't supply ?
Getting a refund is not an option for me if I now have to purchase at a higher price.
Can I legally force them to fulfil my order ?

No, I've tried asking for a refund a few days ago on my still not delivered gold Yale ( I know you are on about PT) but I was politely but very definitively told, I'm not entitled to a refund and the wait is what I signed up for by selecting a pre-order.

Bank transfer or card payment?

As it was a pre-order, I used a credit card for the first time in my life for security.
