2022 Elizabeth II "Piedfort" Gold Proof Sovereign Platinum Jubilee

[Stuntman]

I know - I chose my words carefully 😉

[Colnago]

As a matter of interest folks do you think the demand for the 2022 Platinum Jubilee collection will increase? 
 

It’s been pretty understated IMHO (Silver anyway) …. It’s just that I know someone 🙃 who has the full set 2oz PF70 , 5 & 10oz raw..

May be abit late to this but I've ordered one (the annual set that is from RM) with an expected delivery of 3 months as a keepsake for my 3month old daughter.

Question is, do we think it'll come with Charles on?

Good question!

I saw the ‘delivery within 3months’ line as well, picked up the definitive and full 2022 annual sets myself (funds wouldn’t  allow a 2022 Sovereign ☺️)

Don’t mind if they do take 3 months - which would take us in to December- but hadn’t considered which monarch would be on the coins 🤔

Hope it is still ‘Lillibet ‘- would be a nice way to remember Her Maj 🙂

your card isn't charged until dispatch of the item, so sometimes a RM delay can be a good thing if you are between pay days / pink lint

It will still be the queen, I have no doubt of that. If not, then you have an equally historic set of the first coins of Charles. Not only that but the first year that circulation coins had both monarchs on them 

 

[Stuntman]

I would be amazed if it was not Elizabeth II.  After all, when the coin was released, she was the monarch and the specifications of the coin(s) say as such.

True, but my bank does ‘reserve’ the cash, so in effect I have already paid… just doesn’t show on the Statement until it’s despatched.

The quintuple I returned because of the poor quality has been replaced, originally I was going for a refund but changed my mind at the last minute, considering events of the last few days I am glad I did. The replacement seems to be perfect! nothing like the first, I studied it through a 2.5 loupe under a good light and cannot find a fault (keep in mind I am new at this!) the replacement was No. 160 whereas the first was something like 370 so how does this come about? does anybody know how the coins and the numbers are actually allocated and distributed?

If the coin is as good as I think (how do I find out?) would the knowledgeable on here recommend having this graded? its one for keeps but my daughter may have other ideas. Thanks for your help on this.

@GoldDiggerDave will be best to advise on grading and for such a special coin, I'd likely get it graded to both future proof price and protect from accidents.

Mine arrived today and was a lowish coa and was ordered two days ago. Think it's random 

[Ukbullionfan]

Received it, looked at it, meh. If I wanted to sell it now would I get more than I paid for it ?

You can send me some pictures even better a small video, if there is tiny issues it’s not a deal breaker most of the time and the still grade MS70DPL. 

The NGC grade them negatively  on “Post production” damage so even if a coin is not 100% perfect the defect is pre production so does not negatively effect the grade in many cases.

Thanks, that's really helpful, I have a reasonable camera but if that fails I know someone who could possibly help so will get back.

[Stuntman]

I'd keep it ungraded and in the original RM presentation box, but that's just me.  I like my quintuples better that way.

That’s not ideal for me tbh. How about £2000 and I let you message me anytime your feeling depressed about the queen ?

We knew that the SOTD Sovereign was special.  Now, I think it’s even more special.  I don’t believe I’ve seen these available at any dealers, so it’s probably a great seller’s market out there.

They are nice, the proof Piedfort 2022 is the last proof sovereign of QEII reign.

Yep, glad I got that one.  It’s in transit here from a vendor.

Yep, I consider myself very fortunate to have the 2022 proof, SOTD and the Piedfort which arrived on Thursday.

Nice mate. Grab a bullion and then you have all versions of the same coin. I was gonna do the same but just let my 3coin set go so don't have the proof sovereign any more.

10 years time the piedfort sov will be worth ????

I would guess around 5-6k more if the currency has been hyper inflated away.Look at the relative price and premiums now on the proof 1989 sovereign  they were not even universally liked and the RM struggled to sell them at first.

Whatever happens it will always be worth much more than £1185.

It is special in just so many ways.
