Charles III 1/10th oz silver brits

[Longjon]

Does anyone know when the Charles III 1/10th oz silver brits will be released? Can’t find any info online.

It's the Royal Mint - they may not even produce them this year. The 1/10th ounce silvers seem to be produced completely randomly (i suspect that they are only minted if they receive a big overseas request and then sell the remainders on their website).

Would be nice to have a KC III 2023 issue but it wouldn't surprise me if they don't bother. Logging on to the RM website daily is the only way to know - they tend to appear with no fanfare and very, very quickly sell out.

Yea I totally agree, I don’t own any britannia fractional coins in silver so I was hoping to grab a tube. 
I found them on the Royal mint website but it just said “in the new year”. 
Thanks for the advice, will have to keep my eyes peeled!

I had some 1/4oz 2023 QEII ones but they all went, just got 2021 ones left, the QEII 1/10ths came out around september last year I think, they went very quickly but they were on a limited run with her passing away

so.. maybe the autumn again for them if they release them this year

Ohh so not any time soon then! 
I have sent an email to the Royal mint, so hopefully they get back to me and can offer some more info. If they respond anything useful I’ll pop it on here.

They hiked the price of fractional Britannias significantly last year and presumably sold out similarly quickly to the year before. I expect they will continue with them this year, but it is usually late summer or autumn they come out
