what do you consider a crazy price?

I just looked out of interest, seem to sell for £270/80 on Ebay

I remember a couple of years ago they were selling for £250 ish so it's not really too much of a difference, though Atkinsons would often have them for £210ish, not seen them have any in stock for a good while though hmm

The proof can be crazy.

Nobody will have them for £210 now

I'd say 10% was a fair premium, so about £263 at the moment.

I think I might be a libertad convert . Pictures don't do it justice in my mind.

A couple of nice elephant's and an iddy biddy shark.

Not a bad day at all 

[Lindeman]

Last decent one I saw sell at auction went for £270, so we may have to hibernate for a few months @Kman to see them @ £210 again. I know what you mean though....bittersweet when we think back to 2014/2015!

Set of Privateers - Missed out on the start of these I liked the first issue but was unable to obtain one for a reasonable price at the time so left it however I like all subsequent issues and ended paying a hefty premium to obtain a set - a lesson learned for me - time you see it is the time to buy it for me if I like it. 

It would be nice Elemetal/Provident had a case for these

I recently got the set too, and would love a case for them!!!

[Scuzzle]

I would like a case also but is it not a case of needing to wait until they finish the series before a case can be produced?  Is theis the series finished or are there more to come?

Not sure anybody knows to be honest mate, I hope they make up to a decent number.

I have had a hell of a lot of coins in my time, but this series is by far my favourite.

[sovereignsteve]

They sure look good, all together.

1999 1/10 Eagle and 1987 1/10 brit, 1987 1/4 brit, all HGM pickups and in nice condition, the brits came up really nice with a little rub! (after pictures)

2013 britannia set so I could add the 2013 to my 1/10 collection, annoying. Not sure why the designer decided to have her left tit hanging out mind.

Have a good look over the brit, I have sent 2 back due to scratches and milk spots. Shame really as the coin is a looker.

You are right they got all got spots. But this one was the best from 10 he had. I couldn't see anything jet. But Royal mint are well known for poor quality check

I've merged it here as I don't see the point of having individual threads of each coin you receive as they are already covered in other threads.
