Great new bullion series from the Royal MInt: The Queens Beasts

[AgAuNEWS]

Really nice coins, with the silver version being 2oz in weight and it's the first of ten coins in a series. Designed by Jody Clark who did the 2014 proof Britannia

Wow, I quickly read the title of this thread as "The Queens Breasts " :lol:

I read it that same way! The first coin looks great, that for the article AgAuNEWS.

They are beautiful. I enquired with the US based distributor that I won't promote and they said that to do business with overseas they would require circa $170,000 for a transaction.

That is ridiculous and I suggested they should get more realistic.
They aren't in my recommended list of distributors.

 

[AgAuNEWS]

The Royal Mint have them on general release shortly.

Nice

 

[thefitter]

who will sell them in Australia?

 

[thefitter]

Perth bullion have them in gold but I want silver anyone now where else to buy from in Australia

 

[Trident]

I'm sure an Australian distributor will stock the silver ones once they catch on.

When you buy direct from The Royal Mint and import to Australia the checkout deducts the 20% VAT once you add your shipping details.

They despatch quickly but shipping takes a while from the U.K. - about 3 weeks last time I used them.

 

[thefitter]

Is there a release date, in love with this coin.

 

[worldbubble]

In last couple of years the best looking coin
Would go for silver
The question is what is a mintage?

 

[Naphthalene Man]

I don't really care about the mintage and investment potential. I just love the design. I hope that Perth bullion also carry the 1/4 oz gold and the silver when it comes.
