2019 oriental border

2019 Oreintal Border 

silver 100k mintage

Gold 5k mintage

What are your thoughts on this? 

You can see a slight variation to the boarder. 

 

[terakris]

Ugh.... just take my money!!!!! 

[Fastnick]

I quite like the new-look border.....

but there again, I am well-known for my sometimes "off-piste" tastes and predilections  

[Quantumbomber]

I guess I'll have to a roll of the Silver and a couple of the Gold.

Have to keep the last lot company.😊

[SamCW]

Nice, but I prefer the last set tbh! New one looks a little cluttered IMO.

[Au79]

Has anyone seen the 2019 oriental border pattern anywhere? Unsure if it is oriental in character.

[OllieClem]

Nice coin but prefer the 2018 one. Will still stack the silver ones and might get gold. Kinda wish they done somthing under an ounce though as its a bit much for me when im saving for a home.

The silver is 50,000 mintage not 100,000

[999magnum]

I will get one, but not too crazy about the border.

[P3T3R]

Shut up and take my money, I’ll try and get a tube of silver and 1 of the gold coins. 

[Bullionaire]

Ooh very nice

I can't see anything except for 50,000.

[shortstack68]

Aren't there 2 variations, oriental border and normal Brits? Thats what i would expect if the silver had a limited mintage, obviously just to increase sales, make 2 variants

[Bullionaire]

Here's hoping the next group order is from gs.be so I can grab a couple!

Not sure what to make of this , as I loved the 2018 design and bought in with a 20x sleeve.....partly because it was called a “One time” design (which is now not entirely true🙁). . So they are being a bit cute just fiddling with the border design. Agree with you @SamCW - the 2019 has too many concentric lines now out past the radials ...if thats the right terminology.  In other words - yes, its more cluttered! 

Here is the 2018 image for comparison. 

I guess i agree with a few others - will just have to shut up and keep the run going then ! Buckle up for an annual geometry / oriental border competition ....because i am sure a 7 year old with a ruler and steady hand could design a new border for 2020, 2021 etc 😂.

Mints are often guilty of this BS tactic, remember the silver Krug, said it was a "one time thing" remember the 2017 Sov proof, said it was a one time design then releases the double and so on, remember the Australian Swan, said it was a one time thing etc etc, even the new gold 50p set, in the blurb they say the Kew is rare as hens teeth, but the rarity was silver and a circulation coin, so beware of what you read, it's simply there to attract unwitting buyers into believing something and relieving you of your money

[Lindeman]

The main reason I bought them last year was becuase i really like the novel design ...

Agree on the 2017 silver BU krugerrand - that really set the low mark for this: still amazing that that coin is nearly twice the price of the 2018 or 2019 BU krugerrands, just because its called “Premium BU” and was the first year out....

How about this as a suggestion for 2020? Twenty stars for "20" - I can't imagine how they could update it for 2021.
