Peckris Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 I've got 3 Bobby Moore's and 2 Bobby Charlton's. I'd really like a Roger Hunt if anyone's got one? Quote

Unwilling Numismatist Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 I am confused though, these don't strike me as Olympic 50p's, and it's way too early for you to be that hammered..... Quote

I'm not convinced it's because people think they are rare, more that they can be sold for above face value. I guess you can't blame them. Quote

I guess you can't blame them. Many are tied up on ebay with people trying to get more than face value. Only a few are worth it when they show up as aunc/unc. Quote
Rob Posted May 19, 2018 Posted May 19, 2018 OK, own up. Which kind soul anonymously posted me an aquatics 50p? Thank you, whoever you are. 7 Quote

Unwilling Numismatist Posted May 19, 2018 Posted May 19, 2018 (edited) Indeed, well played mr anonymous! (Wasn't me, I didn't have that one spare ) Edited May 19, 2018 by Unwilling Numismatist Quote
rpeddie Posted May 19, 2018 Posted May 19, 2018 my one and only time I "won the luck lottery". on the Royal Mint website+facebook page they were doing a stock clearance of 27/29 of the full set of these(packaged) and sold them at face value. my only mistake was they limited 3 of each type to each household and i only purchased 2 for some reason. so suppose i 66 1/3% won the luck lottery? For those that don't know the 2 that were missing from this offer(Simply weren't offered for sale) were the basketball and triathlon, i would like to attribute their inflated prices to this deal. Last time i see that with RM as nowdays they milk every penny they can get from tat Quote
Unwilling Numismatist Posted May 19, 2018 Posted May 19, 2018 Now triathlon - harder to get than the "rare" ones. Basketball, I haven't seen that one packaged very often at all and am still (without paying daft cash) looking for one. Quote
rpeddie Posted May 19, 2018 Posted May 19, 2018 i always wonder what happened to those 2 as to why they were sold out before this offer came out, why were they so popular Quote
