Royal Mint silver coins - a shock

3 posts • viewed 100 times

Not sure if this is affecting others, but I received some silver bullion coins from Royal Mint today and they are an utter disgrace. Large milk spots, scuffing, pitting, scratches, even dings around the rims - they look like second hand coins. 

 

At first I thought the issues might be on the capsules, but on closer inspection - nope, the coins are terrible.

 

I wouldn't say I'm a stacker, but I have purchased a number of silver bullion coins in the past, and never had issues with the RM. So this came as a shock.

 

I've contacted their customer service, so we'll see what happens.

 

I had seen a number of YT videos recently that mentioned issues, but as I'd never had problems in the past I assumed they were unlucky, but I suspect this in a general RM issue with quality control - but perhaps confined to silver bullion coins.

 

Anyone else had issues?

I am sure they will send you a replacement.

If not - do send them a direct message on their twitter @RoyalMintUK

Their website states they don't accept returns of bullion. But I think given the issues on these coins they are going to have to accept a return. We'll see…
