12 January 2026

The first Phoenix of 2026 is on its way! Kick starting the new calendar year, this edition is expected to hit mailboxes approximately Wednesday 15th of January.

On the front page, we feature the 2009 Gold Quarter Sovereign—the very first issue of this denomination, available in both BU and Proof. We also have a small, exclusive group of 1921 Belgian Congo 10 Centimes in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. These are difficult to find in such high grade, and we are offering them for well below their catalogue value!

Inside, we feature an incredible "Low Mintage Coin Club" deal on the David Bowie 5 Ounce Silver Proof. With a mintage of only 487, these sold out at the Mint for a premium—but we have secured a limited number at a massive saving off the original price.

For the serious collector, this edition is filled with numismatic treasures, including Richard’s personal favourite: the historic 1642 Charles I Declaration Halfcrown from Oxford. We also have the Complete Collection of King George VI Proof Sets (1937, 1950, and 1951) available at newly reduced prices.


As we ring in the New Year, this issue is packed with unique and eclectic items:

•    Chernobyl Medals: Authentic medals with their original ribbons, issued to the volunteers of the 1986 disaster.
•    Trump "Pseudo" Banknotes: A full bundle of 100 motion-picture "money" notes available for mere pocket change.
•    Casino History: Vintage pre-decimal gambling chips from the Metropolitan Casino.
•    Sterling Silver Soup Ladles: Unique antique silverware inset with 18th-century Reales.


From ancient history to fun novelties, this edition is packed with "bargains, bargains, and more bargains!"
