    Hi,

    Saw an opportunity with these as they're the first of the series.....
    so
    1). Brought Proof 1oz from Royal Mint (wince at the price of 80.00 inc VAT, but hey, it's a limited run of only 8'888 proofs)
    2). Brought Tube (sealed) of bullion coins + 1 for "general viewing":)
    Then I managed to find a "carded" Mule and bullion coin together - in sealed presentation pack.


    Will post pic's of all 3 coins variants together when the Mule's delivered Tuesday.

    Interesting things noted;-
    Proof coin doesn't have the "1oz fine silver .999" text on it. I thought this odd.
    The coin itself , if you look carefully, has the (famous in the UK) Uffington White Horse incorporated into the design (the ground the horse is running on).
    Nice touch I thought.
