i m strongly tempted not to finance a private company that is selling w/o any respect to their customers.

They are purposely keeping all first strikes and sending directly to slab to get all 70s and selling to random people all coins that will get a 69 instead. this is close to a fraud

I have just put 2024 sovereigns on the Buy / Sell thread, if you PM me, we will beat / match any available price for all TSF members.

Nice to see the sovereign launch, and seems to be a sensible we are back to the standard G&D there's not a variant design, privy mark or crown in sight

and the mintages back to limited numbers for the larger 4 and 5 set 

Have the RM been reading threads here ???

If this trend continues for 5-10 years to come, this will probably be good for those holding the platinum jubilees and currently unloved memorials  

Not buying anything myself today

If I'm to buying anything sovereign wise anytime soon it'll be PF70 platinum jubilees and memorials if the price is right

According to a dealer the 2024 Proof Sovereign will be available on 02/11/2023 and the King's birthday Celebration Sovereign will be available on 06/11/2023 with the following limited editions:

 

5 Coin Sovereign Set: 450

3 Coin Sovereign Set: 650 

Sovereign: 7500

Half Sovereign: 1250

75th Birthday Celebration Sovereign: 750

Are the birthdays desirable? 
Still new to this really and having ridden the rollercoaster of recent releases am a bit unsure  as in anyone bothered by his 75th or is it just desirable due to the low mintage ?

They are in it to make money! Just don’t buy from them🤔🤔

Chards web site says they are out of stock of half sovereigns so must be selling.

It must be the free postage that has drawn in the buyers.

Selling or ‘drop-feeding’?

The latter is typically better for business as it creates the FOMO.

I’m of course just speaking hypothetically and that might not be what they’re actually doing.

They may actually be out of stock.

I have nothing against a company that wants to make money/profit. That's a more than legit goal.

I'm not claiming anything special, id just like that my purchase would randomly fall into a "first release" (if they'd play fairly that would just be a matter of %). But if (and that's the case) I pay a full price and what i am buying is methodically chosen at the origin for not being a potential PF70, then i dont quite like it.

Out of the several sovs i bought from the RM, i never got a PF70. coincidence?  

One last thing. If i queue and i manage to purchase let's say a sov within the first minute of release, i'd expect to get one of the first minted... whats the point (as it happened in 2017, 2021, 2022) in buying at 9.00 or 9.01 am and then get a sov with a certificate with 4 digits?

Looks like you might be right or Chards have an extra allocation as it's back on sale.

 There are a few who've been buying these on the way down, certainly 2800 was an outlier perhaps however I can say I have personnaly bought a pf70 quintuple at 3k and probably will again

I got two memorials £5 in pf70 for £3k each, I thought was a good deal

Happy to buy again in new year if I can get for sub £3k if I find someone needs quick cash selling at auction

They’ve already been minted. By the time you have queued dealers already have them so you just get one of the shelf

 Can't complain at 3 grand, im also keeping an eye out for coronations at that price....not that I'd be so crass as to drop a subtle message to potential sellers in this thread 😉

At Coin Connection you can pre order a grade 70, at extra cost of course. But has helped me in the past.
