closed Looking for a 2023 Australian QEII silver commemorative

[Kitalon]

I am in the market for a commemorative 2023 Australian 50 cents coin. I would really like to get ahold of this coin...

2023 Queen Elizabeth II Memorial 50 cents silver proof coin

They have a limited mintage of 7,500 and were retailing from the Royal Australian Mint at $135 AUD since last November. I would be very interested to hear from someone selling this coin, if so drop me a line. But also if anyone sees one of these going anywhere please let me know. Thanks!

Nowhere local but LPM (a reputable dealer from Hong Kong) have them in stock, hard coins to find:

2023 18.24g Australia Elizabeth Regina - HM Queen Elizabeth II Commemoration .999 Silver Proof Coin (lpm.hk)

The price is HKD$1530 which is roughly £155/each

If you really want one it makes sense to spend the minimum USD$500 for free shipping on collectibles (which is anything with a yellow 'Collectables' sign like this 50p). The price for 3 is HKD$4592 = £463 including shipping or £154.33/each

The price for just one unit shipped to the UK is HKD$1903 = £192/each

These two groups might also have your coin. You'll see LPM on that list:

International Distributors | Royal Australian Mint (ramint.gov.au)

Or domestic Australian shops:

Australian Coin Distributors | Royal Australian Mint (ramint.gov.au)

(I already checked Westminster in the UK and they don't have it)

They sold out from the mint in minutes. So prices will be high wherever you find them. IF you can find them. 
you are much more likely to find outside of Australia as most Australian dealers didn’t even take preorders on these.

That's really interesting. Instant sell out of 7,500 coins, that's phenomenal.

The best price on fleabay is £160 posted from Oz, but I hope a better deal will come to light in time.

I had an email from my dealers saying they wouldn’t be selling it on pre order or on the internet on the day of release as they knew it was going to be a big one.
