  1. Why expect anything else from the rm. Do you think that will the small mintage on these that they could have buyers already in mind that will drop the cash and buy without noticing?
  2. Just had a quick look through some of the digitised catalogue here and it is a fantastic resource.
  3. A simple search for manufacturing jewellers in your area should supply many results many of which will be able to undertake the job you require doing.
  4. I'm wondering how many are in the series as this is the second coin in the "Knights of the past" series rather than the mintage of this particular issue.
  5. This was quite common 10 - 15 years ago. I had a nasty habit of sending money a different account of mine as holiday savings of around £150 per month. My bank didn't like my AC bank account for some reason.
  6. Difficult to tell without a photo with a scale on it.
  7. this is what i was thinking. I don't think it's a coin.
  8. The collector will look into every coin weigh up the design, material, year, mintage and price at least that's what i'd do. Then decide if the coin is desirable and has a place in the collection. Generally this will only take a glance at a coin to decide. The Churchill crown has a simple design by he relief is very low, the low relief would reduce the want to have one for me but if you like Churchill or have a collection of crowns then i'd have to get it to fill in the gap in the collection. I would say know what you want to buy and have a price you are willing to pay before looking. I have a simple note pad on my phone that has a list of coins i want to get with different metals and prices. Don't want to buy a base metal coin for silver prices unless it's a special coin.
  9. Any idea of how many in the series? A fine looking coin from a quality mint.
  10. Do NGC have new investors or new owners? Maybe trying to get more cash in to pay for the payday loan.
  11. The problem is that the dispatch dept. used one eyed nana from the quality control dept. And she somehow got lost on the way to the post office ended up on the M6 and delivered all the stock to a certain @ChardsCoinandBullionDealer in Blackpool. Apparently this is the 4th time this mistake has happened this week! Nana said that the brand new BMW i8 was a lot faster than her old micra.
  12. Very little of the rm stuff holds any of its premium. I see many 80's and 90's proof coins at spot (sterling) + 1% or 2% n sometimes less.
  13. Every 2 or 3 weeks there is a rm release of something for some obscure anniversary. 2025 will be the 25th anniversary of the new millennium celibrate this remarkable event with the royal mint with it's SOTD limited edition sovereigns. Only 2025 of these lovely proof coins will be released at only £2025.
  14. Normally from auction like the last one, but also house clearances, people i know with swaps. I got 1oz + 1/2oz for a semi-numi collectable 1/2oz gold coin worth about £820 ish because i had two and could let it go and that is what was offered in return. I've seen about £50,000 worth at spot of coins at auction in the last couple of months selling at or just below spot -5% People i know just want to ditch (very happy to do so) Pt and want just Au. I'm seeing a large swing away from Ag and Pt from people i know.
  15. Does this only include the bi-metallic issues and not the previous 8 £2 coins. The '86 commonwealth games, the peace doves and the london underground train are particularly nice coins from the commemorative range.
  16. I'm picking up 1oz and 4x 1/4oz Nobles for around the £900 to £950 price range. My last 1/4 was £220 all inc.
  17. I can't see any benefit that either would have other that sovs are so much easier to sell. It's hard to knock the sovereign BU or proof.
  18. It's probably just the rm are being cheap and maximising profit by not using silver.
  19. I would pop a wee ad on the buy and sell listings and see what happens there!
  20. Looking good. I'd lay them all out in order of production to see your technique improving.
