I wonder how it works, in practice. Does Johnny Coin Dealer contact The Royal Mint and say I've got this really nice medallion which you can have on sale or return for £100? Does The Royal Mint look at it and think, we'll offer it at £350 and see if anyone bites? Edited by Pertinax 07/05/2025 9:25 pm Report this Post to the Staff
