Quote from: 'purplepennyhunter' pid='99606' dateline='1475903724'Has anyone mentioned the PNC's and that they have been recalled due to a packaging error? As I mentioned in this article the images on the envelopes didn't match the coins. Not that that has anything to do with mintages, just packyboxitis.

thanks for a great article PP

RAM has probably outsourced the printing of the PNC's to China.
They recon that to the Chinese those White devils all look the same :laugh2::angel:

i'm a bit more confused
these limited mintage sets were only available though the SYC club? Or the legends program?

We are going back 5-6 Months here RG, I can't remember if it was a legends offer or if it was Open to all.
I got the "Heads Up" on this forum from Jen originally :good:
I have a feeling that the pre order offer was up on the RAM Shop site But I can't be certain about that.
To get 9108  orders I would imagine that a bigger audience than only  the SYC members would have been needed :ok:

18 voted that it is unethical
And 4 have said that they don't care because they are just one of the Sheep :laugh2:

i thought it was illegal to talk about the SYc here or else you get kicked out of the SYC and they know what you're doing as they come here and lurk

all too damn weird for my liking

That's the reason why I Quit SYC, I got a nasty email from Dion about posting SYC stuff on other sites.
Too "Secret Squirrelly" for my tastes and the "Lurking" is a pretty weak as piss thing to do just to spy on members activities on other forums :nea:

After a couple of personal emails to Dion, he categorically states that,
only 9,108 of each coin in the three coin set, and also included in the PNC's were minted.
He also finds it confusing as to why the AP put a figure of 9,000 on their PNC's.
So there you go, cannot get more definitive than that!  
Case closed!
There are only 9,108 of each of those coins  minted!

robbiegal

ok
so there is NOT 9,108  of the 3 coin sets

trout

QuoteDated 2016, the three coins carry the Arnold Machin (1966-84), Raphael Maklouf (1985-98) and current Ian Rank-Broadley (1999-) portraits respectively, thus illustrating the Queen's development from youthful monarch to the matriarch of Great Britain. Strictly limited to an edition of 9,000, we have a tiny number of these official 90th birthday tributes in stock.

This is from Downies site.
So Who is telling "Porkies" here  ????
Because someone most certainly IS :ok:
