British Monarchs photo thread

[Guest]

Saw the Tudor Beasts thread the other day. I thought this might be a good idea. @ChrisSilver can we have a new photos only thread please?

Hopefully I'm not the only one doing this series.

The gold versions are gorgeous @SeverinDigsSovereigns 😍

If they’d done the gold version in 1/4oz or Sovereign-size, I’d definitely have collected them.

The 1oz pricing for 25 coins is prohibitive, but I suppose that’s what makes the collection exclusive.

Theres going to be some gems in this set, Queen Victoria and most definitely  in 2026 for the last coining the series QEII.

These do look good in gold. Afraid I have to appreciate from a far😮

That also makes flipping impossible I guess. They've already cut the original mintage of 610 to little over 200for the 1oz.

I wish they could use the Gillick portrait. It's relatively easy to find big ones with other portraits, but big Gillicks are such rarity they could probably rival Edward VIII

Beautiful… are you continuing with the set?

Yes

I guess the series will perform much better if there are 1/4oz gold
