Look like they stole the new Libertad design.

That silver sovereign contains metal valued at less than £6.00 at today's spot price. Who is going to pay £86 for it, including postage? Certainly not me.

Was obvious from the start that 6 decsdes of bond was a 7 coin set so i assumed a completer would be the 7th coin. Ive been collecting in 1oz silver in the special collection case that came with the 1st coin. Get my last coin tomorrow for this

On the 6 Decades of Bond, The Royal Mint was upfront at the start that it was a 7 coin series. Moreover, it appears in the 1 oz gold, it is a very small mintage - so small, I think it is only available to those who signed up for the whole series.

Not a fan I think the completer set the bar so high I think any coin would be judged against that coin

Speaking of completers, what would be hilarious, if they put all the special year rose gold Sov designs, around an effigy of King Charles III, on a five Sov. Hah. Now that would be a bit of a stretch.

HAH! Well I wasn't expecting that. A James Bond vehicle completer. If it sells who cares, it's going to make some people happy. I hadn't really thought about a Tudor completer. On considering the concept, well I've been getting the quarter gold and two ounce silver. If there was a completer range, I'd probably get that in the one ounce gold and ten ounce silver, to nicely round out the set with a couple of halo pieces, without to much outlay relative to getting everything else in the smaller formats.

Unfortunately I caved too and have reserved a shield and st George with my local sov expert rather than going directly through mint paying import taxes etc.

It looks a beaut mate, unfortunately the closest i will get to one of those is watching your vid's.

Beautiful design, I managed to purchase the Full Shield Sovereign. I did not buy from the Royal Mint.

Very pretty - hopefully I’ll be able to get it in the secondary market for a more reasonable price - had fantastic luck keeping with the memorial and crowned and I’d love one of these

Looks stunning and thanks for sharing Waiting with anticipation for mine to come through with its PF70 grading Very tempted to get one of the 1/2 proofs as well as I know they’re pricey but I just don’t see them losing value

Regarding 4:57, the current 22 karat rose gold sovereign alloy composition is 91.67% gold + 8.33% copper. This is exactly the same 22 karat rose gold alloy used in South African Gold Krugerrands which explains why they have the same color as British Gold Sovereigns. On the other hand, American Gold Eagle Coins have a 22 karat gold alloy which has a more golden yellow color than 22 karat rose gold. This is because American Gold Eagle Coins include both silver and copper in its 22 karat gold alloy composition which is 91.67% gold + 5.33% copper + 3% silver. The inclusion of copper in a gold alloy gives it a pinkish hue. The inclusion of silver in a gold alloy gives it a chartreuse hue.

This design appears to be the big hit that we all thought the Memorial should have been. The design on the Memorial was very busy and perhaps difficult to discern on the smaller coins. I think the Mint should come up with a better way to make the booklet. After the normal grand presentation with the box, it’s a shame the booklet is only held together by a tacky staple. I’m biding my time for a top grade coin on the secondary market. Like yourself my choice of size will come down to affordability. Thanks very much for showing.

What made you prefer the half sov over the full one?

Still waiting for my 4 coin set to arrive but the 2025 G&D for some reason is just stunning and I can't tell you why .maybe it's the low mintage

7:12 love it❤

What a beauty 😍 Great video bud, you can really appreciate the quality and see the design on the new coin.

Super thing.

For sovereign gold I stack the French Roosters

Regarding 3:58, if the pure silver sovereign matches the weight of 7.98 grams and diameter of 22.05 mm of the 22 karat gold sovereign coin, then the pure silver sovereign must be expected to be thicker than the 22 karat gold sovereign. This is because the density of pure silver is 10.5 grams per cubic centimeter whereas the density of 22 karat gold is 17.7 grams per cubic centimeter. Therefore by using digital calipers to measure the thickness of the pure silver sovereign compared to the thickness of the 22 karat gold sovereign, their difference in thickness should distinguish them apart as well as their obvious color difference.

Overpriced, just like the US Mint

do you expect anything different from this labour government they have shown there true colours and are destroying the country brick by brick

Interesting how the kept the mintages way lower than recent special years.

I was thinking about the four coin set, but it's "Currently Reserved" whatever that means. I'll probably end up just getting a full and/or an half to keep my run of special sovs going, when they show up on the Perth Mint website.

All 500 sets of the Royal Mint's 2025 Five Coin Proof Sovereigns Sets have sold out quickly for £6,325 each. The Britannia Coin Company is now selling these sets for £6,995 each which is £670 more than the Royal Mint’s release price of £6,325.

I missed the 4 or 5 coin set so went with the historic two coin set for the 1825 and 2025 sovereign. Looks like quite a good set given that the old sovereign is now over 1k. My coins were dispatched today so I’m happy, really wanted the 5 coin so went with the old and new which I see more potential to grow as it’s got a 200+ year old coin with it too for under 2300 which is around the same price for 3 coin set and more gold.

I purchased the full shield back proof, I considered the 3 coin set but but waited to long and it sold out.

Sets have gone, got 2 of the G & D due to the mintage numbers only ,and the 4 coin sets thinking of the 5 sov BU

7:19 bullion version for me.

Thanks. The shield back will look great in hand. A friend back in Australia is buying one of each of the two sovereigns. Expensive but at least the mintages are low.

£895 ? I will wait and buy a graded one.

Good luck all #rabbit ❤

Who doesn't like a cuddly #rabbit ? Especially when they are silver :)

Great information shared on the sovs. Thanks for doing the video. I set set of coins you have there 👍🏻😊

royal mint coins for me Why would anyone willingly pay a tax they dont have to pay

Silver and Gold for the Black Market. I like that bar. TY for sharing your thoughts and pretty coins.

Is that the proof or bullion version?

Awesome 👌

Marry a German like Nigel so you get access to Europe😂

Assets? What assets? I lost everything in the last storm Mr HMRC honest......

Clown channel 😂

Vote Reform, Nigel is on our side

What a batch of bullshit. It's not bad enough that there is a VAT you have to pay as well.

Interesting how the same topics are discussed in more than one country at the same time. Almost like it's all the same government.🤔

having a 30% tax relief across the board, will that not help those who are paying extra into a pension such as an AVC ????? but also remove the incentive for Doctors etc ... who have reached the pension threshold to just retire ??? as for PM i am waiting to see what happens then will decide were to put what little disposable income each month

Get ready to be robbed.

Budgets also change, well mine has to, when the holidays come around...

October 2024 I bet u wished you had £2117 and rising 😅😅😅

21/10/2024. Today the spot price of gold has exceeded £2100 per ounce for the first time ever, that's £525 for each of these coins. You paid the right price, you are now quids in.
