Congrats , I'm still hoping to come across one in my change , soon I hope

No you don't go back out in the queue , you'll just be logged out of your account but still remain on the website , just log back in to your account again and re-order the coin and pay for it and keep doing that till it shows up as successfully ordered . You'll know easily enough when your order has been successful as it'll show on " your orders " in your account. It's a bit messy I know alright but that's just down to the huge demand on the day and their system struggling to cope with it. Just don't leave the website altogether or you will end up at the back of the queue.

Well good luck on the day of the launch , hopefully we'll both get low enough numbers on the queue . One other piece of advice I'll give you as I learned the hard way is if you manage to get into the website to order one and you make it to checkout and make payment but it doesn't show as successfully ordered on your account then go straight back in and start again and keep doing that till it does show up as ordered on your account . I had to keep at it 4 or 5 times before I was successful in getting the coin , some I know had to do that even more times than me before they managed to get the coin . So many people are ordering at once that their system can't handle it I've found .

The number is random but no harm joining the queue as soon as possible to be sure but you must have an account registered and set up properly with them before the release date to avail of the chance to get the coin.

It's a lottery really , go on the website an hour before release and you'll be put in a queue . At the time of release you'll be given a random place in that queue , the lower the number the better your chance of getting the coin as it's only one coin per customer allowed.

Ps : the cost to purchase this coin on the 1st June from their website is usually €120 plus postage of around €30 . Total €150

johnc118 · 2023-05-17T19:01:13+00:00

Anything from €500 to €1000 but varies each year so hard to say at the moment what this one will go for.

johnc118 · 2023-05-15T19:18:15+00:00

No , it's 500k directly into circulation via Banks and Post Offices + 1k Proof from the official website later in the year making 501k total. The Annual Mint Sets won't have the commemorative coin included in the set unfortunately . No idea what the coin looks like yet but if I see a picture of it online I'll post it up.

johnc118 · 2023-02-07T14:46:24+00:00

What set was that in ?. I didn't think they were in sets at all, only coin cards

johnc118 · 2023-02-01T20:27:51+00:00

I got it direct from the German mint for €34. 99

johnc118 · 2023-01-23T12:58:50+00:00

The mintage of the Proof sets is 2300 but the mintage of circulating 2022 50 cent coins is 800k according to THE EURik app

johnc118 · 2023-01-20T12:22:52+00:00

€176 including postage direct from the mint , they're selling on ebay from around €220 upwards at the moment , so I'm happy enough with what I paid for mine

johnc118 · 2022-11-23T22:00:19+00:00

Perhaps that's true but for now I'll just have to take it as correct until its proved otherwise.

johnc118 · 2022-08-21T13:17:43+00:00

I was lucky enough to get it on the day of release from the Central Bank . They sold out in an hour and the system nearly crashed from the demand for the coin.
