Was tempted, but already have the little fella on a plate.

I’m not complaining, but “Starting in 2024…” sounds like this is going to be another range.
I’m just thinking how about they just honour their prior commitment to the British Monarchs range instead? 😟

Can I have the middle bits?

The 1/4 oz gold proofs have been priced insanely by the RM for several years, the resulting insane losses in the secondary market are therefore inevitable.
Most of my gold stack is made up of RM 1/4 oz proofs, all bought on the secondary market and the most ever I've paid (so far) is approximately £495 per coin for the set of reverse proof Queens Beasts.
I've said it on here several times before, but nobody should have been buying 1/4 oz proofs direct from the RM for the last few years.

Knocking up ham and slaw.

The occasional coin will appreciate the vast majority won't 

Completely agree.

Just shavings and microchips! Making some burn plasters out of them 🤣

Thanks Bro. Just started drilling out the centre of my ASE’s! No government is tracking my hoarde 👍🏼

Started seriously stacking/collecting gold just over 3 years ago and breached the 1KG level late last year. The forum has been a massive part of this journey, @ChrisSilver I thank you for creating the community and the work you put in daily to cultivating a thriving environment, long may it continue. Started with silver, then moved onto bullion gold and proof coins thereafter. There's also a bunch of others to thank for the help, guidance, advice, encouragement and inspiration to make it to this point (I'm sure I've left out a load of other peeps):

With the lovely weather of the bank holiday weekend I felt like sharing my collection so here it is. I took a load of pretty pics before putting everything back in lock up. I think I've accumulated a decent collection. I have a few outliers that I'll most probably sell on the forum at some point which are not part of below so keep a look out. I also may part with the bullion Britannia set (feel free to drop me a message if you're interested).
What next? I feel I have enough from an investment portfolio for now but I may start to pick up a few key older sovs, we'll see. Let me know what you think and thanks to you all again:
