I have tried to read last night this topic, but after two hours I've lost the essence.

Can anyone enlighten me and write a summary, please?😁

The royal mints quality of Jam spoons has depreciated owing to the lack of ones on the market, and it all your fault. Mean while the European Jam mountain has decreased due to your large purchases...

Now I am busy, engraving with a iron screwdriver the logo Coartier on the Jam spoon and Tiffunny on russian spoons before sending them. Are genuine, you can believe me! 🤣

Thoughts

 

 - now that there has been a recent sudden interest in Royal Mint products, products selling out. Feeding Frenzy, etc = should the VIP access be should be abolished-  is it in fact damaging the Royal Mint brand.

[Note my account Manager had said she could possibly get what I wanted, going forward, so not sour grapes, I could get coins, but is it fair to the public?)

 

That  a more standardize luxury Goods Business business model established - ie Authorized Retailers etc would be better for the Royal Mint brand?

Maybe at different levels of brand, price points, or sub brand - Engravers, Monarch (high end) Tudor Beasts Mid range) , etc other gold and silver sub brand ranges. etc

Allocations agreed with  authorized dealer network, international authorized dealer networks, transparency, TRUST,  now, all should have similar access, not how much money you have to get access, and the instant flipping speculating will stop, and the public and collectors will  want the product, not the profits.  (that alone should make the quality of the product improve)

 

What has puzzled me with Coin series like the Great engravers, why aren't high end Jewelers  having say the Great Engravers range, The Monarch range, say in the on higher weights 5oz..(or selected sizes)  in stock and maybe a very few other premium Royal Mint products

 

The Royal Mint would reach a wider luxury goods market.. there surely would be more demand?

 

The more old school coin dealers could focus on their specialties, historic, modern sovereign, maybe select some of the higher brands or not. or evolve as well. It could work for all. Nobody is cut out of the market, it expands and gets healthier.

 

Proofs - Change the capsule so it is vacuum sealed for life - to a (68 Proof and maybe above standard) and be like Rolls Royce in the old days and say - it is good enough for us, we don't need to tell you how much power.(pr grade, 68,69,70).

So if the USA collectors, etc want it graded - they have to break the Royal Mint Seal, and send it off to grading. and the Royal Mint, with theory thousand year history they keep remind us, look slight down on such 'vulgarity'

 

Maybe in time the Royal Mint ungraded product will be the collectible premium desirable coin, in all of it's presentation box, packaging, COA, and history..

 

[sorry, just hate slabbed coins] 

 

Thoughts?

 

ie Brand Management

 

-- Lots of thoughts in my head today - Former Product Marketing Manager and Former Product Manager - Cartier, Tiffany, Rolex are not like this!!! 

Ohhhhhhhh!!!!!!!
