Weren't the 20 for 20 coins around 200,000 to 250,000 mintages? So far I think they have all sold out. I was concerned over milkspotting on the original 2014 proof offering so I dithered until they all ran out. Hope these ones are ok, I picked up two, one for myself and one in case they go to the moon.
Bought two myself. Like others have mentioned, I don't give a damn about mintages or being a mintage snob. This is a gorgeous design! It has a floor, and that floor is what you paid for it 50. If it appreciates, then great. If not, I haven't lost anything and I still have a coin I personally consider one of the top five designs in the coin market today. I can not wait for these to be delivered!
I just noticed that dealers selling this coin in Australia are adding 10% GST to the price even though it's 999 silver. But in the UK, where they have VAT applied to silver, the Royal Mint is not including that tax. I wonder what ATO regulation necessitates collecting GST on this?
BTW, how'd you get nearly 9,000 posts? At one point, we had like the same number of posts. Who'd you pay to fudge those numbers of yours? .
The trick is to focus on posting inane crap. I have the unfair benefit of a job where I am exposed to plenty of examples of idiocy and blatant bullshit to learn from. The goal is to reach 10,000 posts and then you are qualified to become a government policy advisor.
Holy puke I almost missed this out! This happens if you are not following forum so often as in the past. Time is bitch!
I wonder though if they will make "mistake" with mintage again. Ooops, it's actually double. Oooops, it's actually 1 000 000.
Looks like they posted google links here to photos that haven't been shared publicly on the google side.
