Royal Mint Boxes

[SovereignBull]

Anything better to hold your sovereigns in than a RM box?

I’m extremely impressed with the quality of the RM boxes & at £50 it seems a real bargain.

My gold collection needs some work but not bad for less than a month 😬

If i bought a box it'd turn into a personal challenge. Id be homeless within a couple of months.

I originally got a 10 coin box and my goal for 2024 was to fill it! I loved the look of the royal mint box so got one to start once my first box was complete! I stupidly transferred my sovs today into the RM box so I guess the goal now is to collect 15 more sovereigns in 2024! At least it will help with the weight loss goals! Gold before food 🤣

Beautiful boxes, why only 19 slots though is a strange one. There was more than enough space for 20 minimum.

How big is your safe/ safety deposit box?🤔😮⛄️⛄️

That did have me scratching my head! Why not 20? There must be a reason but I’m not sure why. Thought it might have been overall gold weight but that comes out at 4.47oz so I doubt it’s that. 
 

The only criticism I have of the boxes is that the slots aren’t open backed so u cannot see the reverse of the coins and it’s a very tight fit with the holders

@sovereignsteve and me  use sovereign to build a wall at the back garden to prevent anyone climb into our properties , it works well, so no box needed

Why not use the @James32 trick and use kilo bars, much easier to build a decent size wall with.

Kilo bars are for paupers. I use 400oz good delivery bars.

Im fairly sure someone once told me they were multi purpose boxes. Lift the tray out and there’s like a space underneath the couple ive got, I’ve fit a couple of proofs in the space. It’s still odd though, I’d bought them as date runs from birth for my kids. Can’t really fit a 21st up top, so a couple went underneath with the proofs.
