Gazette Proclamation - Britannia and Liberty

[paulmerton]

They've only sold 22% of the 1/40oz coins so far which really surprises me (and fills me with buyer's remorse already, haha).

5oz silver proof has sold out

Yes, you can order from the US Mint from the UK, just bear in mind that there will be customs charges to pay including a handling fee.

I am hoping someone here will be offering the Britannia and Liberty 2024 1oz Silver Bullion Coin in the future since right now that is the only option that my wallet can afford.

Same but I managed to buy 2 of the 1oz bullion. Not a great fan of the design but had to at least have something

[Stuntman]

Just ordered the 1 oz gold bullion coin.  Looking forward to it turning up sometime next week 🙂

The UK Britannia and Liberty 2024 UK 2oz Silver Proof Coin seems to be sold out.

Bullion quarter also available https://www.royalmint.com/invest/bullion/bullion-coins/gold-coins/britannia-and-liberty-2024-quarter-oz-gold-bullion-coin/

Nice! But does anybody know if it will be sold outside the Royal Mint, more specific by an EU-based dealer. Not worth the hassle with customs to order from the RM.

Most of the proof options have sold out:

https://www.royalmint.com/britannia/britannia-and-liberty/commemorative/ 

There are only 1oz silver and 1/40oz gold proofs left. I do quite like the 1/40oz gold format at £99.50 despite the high premium. You could make a nice collection of these issues at a relatively low price. It is quite a high jump up to the 1/4oz gold proof at £750. In comparison it would take a lot of money to collect every issue in 1/4oz gold.

Despite the high demand I am not seeing any of the sold out proofs for sale on EBay which surprises me.

I haven’t bought any so far as I am not sure about the design but the 1/40oz gold is tempting. I do like the format of the packaging for this size.

Cancelled my 1/40th as the Chinese 1/40th turned up on the same day as the Britannia launch. When you’re paying such a high premium the packaging needs to be amazing. It wasn’t!

I’d give the 1/40th collection a wide berth

Much better packaging than what they did for the Britannias🤔

[TeaTime]

And again, despite signing up for a notification, the RM sent me no email for this release....

Absolutely shambolic.

Interesting observation on the fact that no Britannia and Liberty sold out proofs are for sale on Ebay.

Why would this be?

We're all proofs sent out to collectors rather than flippers?

Overall I’m a fan of these. My main dislike is the texted used. 

[paulmerton]

They still have 1305/1776 of the 1/40oz gold proofs left in stock.

Is that a sign of doom for these new 1/40oz carded coins, or is this one just not so popular? The first one in this format (the Coronation coin) was arguably more desirable I guess, so bumping the price up by an extra £15 probably hasn't helped.

All previous 1/40 gold coins have ended up quite collectible, especially the newer ones that have ended up only in the sets🤔

Have they? The 75th birthday coin still hasn't sold out yet either nor the RNLI one.

Unfortunately a lot more of them, they’ll do ok🤔😮

The mark up on them was already high and they have then increased the price since the Coronation.

Think they thought they were onto a good thing so put up the price and quantity ruining their initial success.
