There was only Lion in 2016.
I thought phoenix was going to be the 2017 piece.
Dont get me wrong I love the red dragon design, any idea on realise date?

I presume they are also CGT free?

Yes, CGT free for those fortunate enough to be in that position. 

[Lea79]

I'm not a fan of the series in general but I'll have to get this design being Welsh ?

[Oldun]

Hmmm, not feeling this one. Worst of the three so far in my opinion but may look good in hand. Couple of 1/4oz for sure.

 

Group buy ?

We can spit on the RM for milk spotting all we want, but the design for these series is very good in my not so humble opinion.

That shall be a tube of ten silver two-ouncers, a ¼ oz.t. in gold, and extra fries with that. Long term bet, so I can live with the hefty premium.

Ramping-up production to three a year could be an option, then again, only three to go after the dragon.

Looks good - going to be a nice series once complete

Bullion version is on the RM bullion site

What do you guys think of the design? 

 

Debating on wether I should get the 1/4 ounce gold proof.

[Pampfan]

Should have added @Kman to my post - my bad.

[Daniel]

These coins look fantastic, no news yet on a release date?

I still have to get the lion lol, design looks great though.

April! That's eariler than expected! 

*Starts frantically counting pennies from behind the sofa*

I'm getting the 2oz silver and 1/4oz gold. Will buy direct from RMB even if it's a higher premium...because I can always send it back easily if it's marked

[TangoTango47]

Looks cool, I'm enjoying this series a lot.

Beasts - Dragon available for pre-order from Atkinsons - pricing more or less the same as rest of series has been.

[Pampfan]

Apmex has just added the dragon as pre-order on their website - release date is 3/14. It looks very good

[4Nines7Hills]

Looking at the picture this design looks my favourite thus far, so I'll definitely get a 1/4 Oz Gold.

Been my Chinese symbol I've always like dragons.

Bullion Exchanges just listed this today - MS70 Queens Beast Red Dragon First day of issue at a price of $295.

I think this is a steal.  Pre-order period is right now - they may sell out.  

[Vacendak]

Just pre-ordered a tube of silver and a ¼ oz. t. gold last night from Atkinsons. In case, somehow, silver appreciates seriously at some point.

The fact that my pre-ordered tube of Dragons has cost me slightly less than my tube of Griffins, which in turn cost me less than my tube of Lions does not look much like "investment" to me at the moment.

But hey! We are talking long run and minor hedging/insurance on the portfolio... or so goes the excuse to myself when it comes to buying the shinies.

@shortstack68 I am with you on your implied "bullion is bullion" approach. A coin always looks nicer than a dull planchet, but I can live with milk spots and scratches too.

[Vacendak]

@shortstack68  Agreed, but it is me I was talking about, and I am an expert at bungling my acquisition of precious metals. Ask me to buy shares and I am usually lucky enough to make a few pennies within a few days, but gold or silver? Nah... Make me buy gold on the way down and one can be sure that it will fall even further a day later!
 
 As for the rate hike you are potentially right, but it is highly likely it has been already priced-in for a while now. The only surprise would be if there were none.

 

[vand]

goldsilver.be is the cheapest I have seen these (& Griffin - 41.21 EUR).

 

The design is great, but the milkspotting means they will only ever be just bullion.

[Kman]

RM had an article about the QB today, just talking to Jody Clark about the design
