Royal Mint Scraper

The Royal Mint (royalmint.com) is the official producer of British coinage, operating for over 1,100 years. Beyond circulation coins, The Royal Mint offers a wide range of collectable coins, commemorative medals, bullion products, and unique gifts — including gold and silver coins, proof sets, and limited-edition releases tied to historical events and cultural milestones.

Introduction

This Apify scraper extracts structured product data from The Royal Mint website. Given a search results URL or a direct product URL, it collects detailed information including title, price, availability, specifications, images, and ratings — without requiring any account or API key.

Use Cases

• Price monitoring: Track prices of Royal Mint products to spot deals, restocks, or limited releases.
• Inventory research: Build datasets of coins and collectibles to support numismatic research or investment decisions.
• Product cataloguing: Aggregate Royal Mint listings for comparison platforms or catalogue databases.
• Market analysis: Analyse product metadata, categories, and ratings across The Royal Mint's range of collectibles.

Input

Provide the following fields:

• startUrls (array, required): One or more URLs to scrape. Supports:
  • Search result pages: https://www.royalmint.com/search-results-page?ss360Query=2026
  • Direct product pages: https://www.royalmint.com/gifts/sixpence/2026-silver-sixpence/
• maxItems (integer, optional): Maximum number of products to scrape per start URL. Default: 5.
• proxyConfiguration (object, optional): Proxy settings. Defaults to no proxy — The Royal Mint does not require proxies for standard scraping.

Input Examples

1) Scrape products matching a keyword

{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://www.royalmint.com/search-results-page?ss360Query=silver+coin"
    }
  ],
  "maxItems": 20
}

2) Scrape a specific product page directly

{
  "startUrls": [
    { "url": "https://www.royalmint.com/gifts/sixpence/2026-silver-sixpence/" }
  ],
  "maxItems": 1
}

3) Scrape multiple search terms in one run

{
  "startUrls": [
    { "url": "https://www.royalmint.com/search-results-page?ss360Query=gold" },
    {
      "url": "https://www.royalmint.com/search-results-page?ss360Query=commemorative"
    }
  ],
  "maxItems": 10
}
