Eirk....the coin was issued at face value, which is 20 pounds, which is about 23 1/2 euros.

You could argue that it is over priced since it has just over 1/2 ounce of silver and silver goes for 13.25 right now.  So it being sold for about x3 times its melt value.

3 x melt, is cheap compared to some of the Perth mint Granny bait.
Nice coin Ken, I have always liked the St. George and Dragon design.
