sounds like a handful of yall haven't really checked out the royal mint mayflower offerings and the ones that the us mint is selling - they are unique from one another
the royal mint solo gold is composed of yellow and red gold, whereas the us mint sold uk gold is only yellow gold

I like the design of these coins/medals, but they're definitely not eagles. That will influence demand downward, IMHO.
The WWII $25 gold at 1/2 oz will be more affordable to a much larger population of coin collectors than the AGE.

I was able to get a silver, not ever the most fun trying to order something at the mint anymore but I have been successful on the past 4 items thankfully......I wish everyone that is still trying to the most of luck to all of you!
I was able to get them both! Logged into US Mint just two minutes in advance. Took three minutes to get the Silver medal, took half an hour to get the gold coin! Yippee!
It shows that both the silver and gold have been both sold out now for me. After all of this BS the past few times trying to order, I am happy just getting the silver one's.
I either bought zero of the gold coin or 45 of them with the amount of times I entered my CC info and clicked submit (just to have the page reload and start the checkout over).
Mint site even more glitched than usual, showing gold still available right now when it plainly isn't. Also alerting me to expired CC's that I deleted from the account weeks ago. They're baaaaaack. lol
I was fortunate to get a silver both days, but on behalf of my dad who has bought overpriced mint sets from the beginning of time.....what a disservice!
He prefers to order by phone as most old school guys do and was really frustrated when trying to use his computer and phone and unsuccessful on both days. And even when he gets it into his bag, he's just not going to be able to enter all the information within seconds.
He was not at all impressed when I described the processes I had to go through in hope of just getting one (multiple browsers, cards, address....and 100s of refreshes).
It just seems crazy.
Collector of Original Early Gold with beginnings in Proof Morgan collecting.
Wow that was a bigger mess than the V75. With computer had both in bag, “order in procees” pop up then “item not available” which turned out to be gold.
Removed that resubmitted for silver...froze.
Got on my phone browsers...Silver out gold there, “order process again” then back to home page no notice of received order.
In the mean time computer comes back up no gold but silver in stock same thing order processing and then froze.
Then I get email saying received order,but didn’t know for what item.
Meanwhile each keep popping back in and out of stock but with me having 1 order in afraid I’d double order something so didn’t do anything but wait.
All said and done, order history finally shows I got the gold.
However still waiting on 2nd confirmation email for it.

Funny, this thread started off as a WWII coin & medal thread, though attention quickly turned to the Mayflower US/GB joint release. Hmmm.
Fingers crossed the craziness at the Mint does not effect this new offering.
Got a silver after 8 minutes of trying
Got the silver. Only got kicked out a few times and no pictures to select.
Got 1 gold and 1 silver after 9 minutes of trying. Order # USM08704XXX

Got the silver in my cart, but became unavailable during my checkout procedure at 12:35.
I guess my virtual shopping cart has a hole in it.

Gold not available now
Remaining calm. Everything is great. That mint site is a lot of fun. I'd just like to take a moment and express one thing.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Still stuck holding the gold one in the bag again like the V75.
Mint refused to take cc, or PayPal and after trying to process, then eventually it switched to unavailable, just like before on several days.

Did a quick flip of the gold coin for $2,000 on eBay, but I'm keeping the silver medal. Its minimalistic design is kind of growing on me.

I got a silver this time.
Oh, look...is that the Mayflower on the horizon?
