My account manager is useless she just apologies every time she finally replies to me. 

On that topic, does anyone know what "access to a discount day" is meant to mean, as that's one of the supposed perks and I've never been told about one.

I am unsure to be honest. Maybe on your birthday? Could be wrong though.

Another point to add to the Petition Crown. 

If you were a collector and wanted an original you are probably needing at least £500k to obtain one.

With the Gothic Crown you probably need 10k for a decent example.

So maybe more people will want this as it is such a high barrier to an original?

The previous one I had before she moved up the chain was brilliant, couldn't of asked for more. Then I was given this new one, polar opposites

Discount day only of benefit if your interested in historic coins. Not on modern coins.

Then there's Birthday gifts, Christmas gifts, discounted coin cabinets, or free depending on how much your spending. Vip tours and other little benefits like that not of much interest to majority

I do understand they are mobbed this year but only notifying me of the good releases too late and the bad ones in plenty of time and saying 'they will run out quickly' is annoying. 

[NumismaticNI]

Just get up in the morning join the queue if your fancy it buy it, if you don't well don't buy. It's really that simple. There's always more to come so I wouldn't worry too much about missing a coin here or there

I qualify for most of that, but don't get offended any of it. Mind you, I buy the coins and they don't turn up either. 😟

Your totally correct. There's some 2oz Gold still not received from back in December. Happened to me once I waited 4months afew years back. Been generally quick since then hope they keep it that way.

Does everyone think if this is actually a low mintage (possibly the key in the series) that this would renew interest in the series and this issue will do quite well?

Ultimately impossible to say but it surely couldn't be a bad thing for the coin and those who manage to get them if the mintages are much lower. From my own observations what seems to make the key difference with coins in this series value wise is how widely available they become on the secondary market. The Una mostly disappeared into peoples collections with only a few examples bought and resold so its value went up and up and up to match the demand. With the 3Gs and GC releases the secondary market was flooded with them and they're still quite easy to get so the values are what they are. If the mintage hasn't dropped dramatically the same will happen with this coin as the last two releases. The rumours sound good to me though and it certainly could help get the series back on the right path if they pan out.

Tomorrow will reveal all. 👍 

Good luck everyone

Pictures are up and it looks good in gold - just about anything does though.

[apachebleu]

 I see people getting calls from account managers, how do you get one? I was sure I read here that you get approached after you spend a certain amount, is that right? How much?

[westminstrel]

Sorry but no. The edge engraving looks basic and rather sad compared to the original. What’s the big feat here?

[westminstrel]

Also, if the Charles II portrait and the Quartered Arms are meant to be face-up, the edge engraving is going to be upside down. 😐
