[QUOTE="eddyk, post: 1784954, member: 3712"][SIZE=2][SIZE=4]I was debating with myself whether to put this thread in the bullion section, but I decided as the face value far exceeds the silver contest that this is more than a bullion coin. I'm going to start off with the bad news, the coin is available exclusively on the Royal Mint Website, and is for [B]UK buyers only[/B]. I imagine this is because that the coin is for sale for £16.67 + 20% VAT which makes £20. Overseas buyers would not have to pay the VAT. I can't see the RM selling a coin for less than face value.[/SIZE] [SIZE=4]Specs: Mintage : 250,000 Diameter: 27.00mm Alloy: .999 Silver Weight: 15.71g[/SIZE] [IMG]http://www.royalmint.com/~/media/4CDB49A0357E4793B4447A0D61724BEF.ashx[/IMG] [SIZE=3]I have searched this forum to see if this thread already exists and couldn't find one.
