[QUOTE="ddddd, post: 2674189, member: 22377"]There was an article about how some British dealers stopped dealing in Royal Mint products around the time of the 2012 Olympic issues. "After 38 years as a Royal Mint agent, a leading numismatic dealer with 57 years in the business, is now refusing to trade in any more of its coins because he believes the market has been devalued by the vast numbers of issues and exorbitant prices. Richard Lobel – the UK's biggest dealer in the secondary market for Royal Mint coins – condemns what he sees as the exploitation of people who pay up to four-figure sums for what they assume are valuable keepsakes."
