Yeah they are a little delayed. I ordered ten silver 1 oz 2023 King Britannia from
SD Bullion, got notice this morning they have been shipped. I ordered 1/10 oz gold 2023 King Britannia from
Bullion Exchanges, no shipping yet, expected 14th. I bought 1 oz gold 2023 King Britannia from Liberty Coin, it arrived yesterday. I assume
The Royal Mint is shipping the 1/10 gold after the 1 oz gold.
SD Bullion does not have the 1/10 gold in stock either. It seems the dealers usually get new releases in stock within a week or so of each other.
I hope the silver Britannia don't have scratches or milk spots as some have had. By typing this I may have jinxed myself :).
I shop around, try to get the best deal the day I decide to buy. I mostly buy from the major online dealers but sometimes their prices are actually cheaper on
ebay. They may get fee discounts on
ebay for large volume sales or it's a competition thing to beat other
ebay store prices.
