Am I just get more stupid as I get older..?

In the Mail today (yup I read the Mail) the Royal Mint are advertising their low mintage (7,500) limited edition 2015 Sovereigns from £110 ...?

What does that weasely term mean "from £110" ....

Do I buy all 7,500 then because they're 40% less than scrap at that price?.....what are they playing at here?

Having looked at the Royal Mint website, it seems that the £110 refers to the proof Quarter Sovereign. The Half Sovereign is £190 and the Sovereign is £360. There are also bullion versions that are a bit cheaper, but not that much.

For my sins I read the Daily Mail too (only when I pop into the village shop for bevies and sandwiches)

The mail started the KEW 50p rush/20p no date

No doubt they will pick up on the Churchill £20 coin
