Don't hold your breath. It's DHL from Denmark then who knows when they hit the UK. I've had a couple of parcels go missing from Germay via DHL etc

The website says 4-7 Business days, so it could easily be the middle of next week before the first package arrives, and that is if we are lucky. I'm thinking more like next Friday for mine to arrive.

All 3 of my orders have now been confirmed as shipped so it will be interesting to see how long it takes to get from Denmark to Toyotaland. i mailed them to see if there is a tracking number with each package and don7t expect a reply for that until Monday when they open again.

 

Either way, impressed so far with their communication etc and told them so. They know all about this forum, believe me. Maybe they would be interested in joining ?

I ordered twice on the 2nd and once on the 4th.

One of my orders from the 2nd has shipped, as has my order from the 4th, leaving an order from the 2nd as no status.

Strange.

Looking forward to getting these in hand though.

Well pleased received my first two orders from Nordfrim today  , 16 coins all in caps .

They are all in very good condition

Mine are stuck at the post office. Can't wait

[HighlandTiger]

My first lot have arrived. All in perfect condition (you slabbers might find a bargain ).

The 1999 and 2001 are in capsules. The 2003/05/07 are cut from the large sheets. One 2005 was loose. Although all were in individual paper stamp envelopes.

Quite pleased.

Good stuff.

When you say some were cut from larger sheets, are they still in capsules or naked in the plastic?

Scrap it, the photo wasn't there when I wrote the post.

Question for you Brit experts. Does the 1999 have a shiny queens head and a frosted type background or have I just got 3 proofs

First thing I bloody did. Checked weight, diameter, and did the magnet test......

[sovereignsteve]

If you're ever passing Lancaster/Kendal I'll be happy to buy you a pint

[collector301]

I'd say we all owe Highland tiger several pints..

I usually stay at Lancaster services on the M6 around 5 or 6 times a year on the way to Scotland. I might take you up on that.

I think we have hit the motherload on this, I have just got my 1999's today and I believe I might have some MS70s. I have another 15 on the way

I did say you slabbers might be getting a little excited on these.

[Danny-boy]

I'm not convinced slabbed BU britannias do that well within the UK, but selling with worldwide shipping may work out.

Brits just turn in by royal mail, German post. Now just need few air-tites .
