Proof Britannia question

I'm trying to fill holes in my set of proof Britannias. Man oh man do you have to pay for these back dates. Anyone know of a nice source for back date proofs in this series?

I just came across an 2001 proof with a BIN of $59 while surfing the bay. Very nice price ( i tihink) , pics of obverse and reverse were clean
Had to pull the trigger.
Now if I only could get the '97 at that price!

    I had to get it slabbed myself, as it was a pop one coin. None better and none worse.

  • Scotsman or Panda Coin are good choices.

    Do you have links for those? I didn't see any Britannia proofs on the sites, that I could find.



    Also, does anybody know what Dansco album number the Britannia series is? Good source to buy the album?

  • Don't think Dansco makes one for the Britannia's. You might be able to use the blank one they make.

    The one made by lighthouse looks neat.

    Scotsman used to be the exclusive distributor for the Royal Mint, but now they seem to be concentrating on the auction biz. Panda America sold me a selection of proof silver Britannias several years ago.
