got my $20 for $20 iceberg today. I have to say, the image on the net looks better than the actual coin. I am slightly disappointed by it. oh well. not like it costs a lot.

I do not want to open a new thread about an international coin in Canadian NCLT forum.
Therefore I use this thread for this British $20 for $20 coin.

Nice coin and the Brits get more silver for their money.

Roughly 1/2oz for about $33CAD contrasted with the 1/4 oz we get for $20 or worse, the 1 oz we get for $100.

I just put in an order - when I selected 'Canada' the price dropped to £16.67 (even less than 20/4/£20 Then, there is £12.50 shipping to Canada.

So, the total is: £29.17. (about $47.80 Cdn) So, if that's 1/2 ounce of silver, it comes pretty closed to our 1oz/$100/4/$100. (ours have free shipping in Canada)

UPdate: All the way through the ordering process it kept repeating "an item in your basket can not be shipped to Canada" The order however was completed, and I did get a confirmation number - If I get it, we will just have to wait and see. Incidentally, I ended up ordering 2, with my total, including shipping of £45.83.

Nice!

It would be nice to own an offical silver version of the Saint George Slaying the Dragon design.

Now look here RCM, The Royal Mint had the wherewithal to copy your $20 for $20 idea and offer it at a much more reasonable price. Time to man up and at least match their price!


^^ not exactly a fair request now that I think about it. Silver was much higher when the Canadian $20 for $20 started, and it would be rather unacceptable to either lower the price of the coin (what, $20 for $15?) or increase the silver content and throw off the series.

Time for a $25 for $25 1/3oz silver coin. Golden opportunity claim another few "firsts"

Thanks for the information about the UK £20 for £20.

Placed an order for three (which are already all spoken for - only 1 for me).

Free shipping since order was over £45.

yeah it did say for UK only.. but I maager to put an order in... if I get it, that's great.. if not.. time to look for secondary market

I like the look of the coin..

For those wonder why they can't add the coins to their basket
1. Don't login yet
2. Select the coin and add it to your basket.
3. Login and do a checkout....

Disclaimer: the above does not guarantee you will get the coins. You still may get screen out later

Edit: Forgot to put in a Disclaimer
