    I saw this design yesterday for the first time and I thought it wasn't nice as the ones in the past.
    Now that I saw it again, I may change my mind. It is very cool.

    This is my favorite.

    That's a neat design. I've never seen two kangaroos dancing together before.

    The UK 5 Pound 22K gold coins with Benedetto Pistrucci's St George slaying a dragon are near and dear to me. It is my favorite classic design. image

    Are UHR's really bullion coins? I think of bullion coins as having a premium over melt of about 5% or less.

    Thats a poor definition of "bullion coin" Perry. It doesnt work because there are various dates within a series that sell for as little as 3% over melt to as high as 400% of melt. So is the 1985 gold panda just bullion while the 1998 gold panda is a numismatic coin? A better definition of "bullion coin" is:

    Any coin minted by a Government and made of a precious metal and contains a nominal face value and does not typically circulate in normal commerce.


    Pricing has nothing to do with a coin's "bullion" status Perry.

    I suppose it barely qualifies as a bullion issue--originally only proof, eventually released in a non-proof version as part of a set. The design is used though for the silver bullion releases however.

    This is an interesting website to poke around on for Britannia information. It's also where I shamelessly stole the picture from image.

    There are some very nice Mark Goodman photos of some of the various sets that someone is selling on the World/Ancients BST Forum if anyone wants to see some Really Nice Pictures of Britannias.
