That is very well put.... although I wonder how many will stick to their lost bullions story under duress, threatened with prison time, etc. Personally I'd rather never find myself in that position, if I can avoid it. Pretty unlikely scenario though, I'll concede + making purchases anonymously does sound rather convoluted, unfortunately.

Anyway, many thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts, much appreciated!

Weird how suspicion is now the default attitude towards someone wanting anonymity - eg. the smaller non-London based dealer I also spoke to this morning, who instantly shut down the conversation, claiming alarm bells were ringing. 

Am wondering if purchasing from abroad solves the problem?

Hi all,

Apologies if this has been answered a thousand times before, but I'm a bit of a newbie so would massively appreciate any advice you knowledgeable people might have. Anyway, here goes for my first post on the forum 😬

Am looking to buy some sovs and maybe a couple of half-sovs (approx £2500 worth in total) and want to do so anonymously - ie. no name or address. I thought paying cash at a dealer would work under a certain limit, but having spoken to a couple of London dealers, it turns out they require id for any purchase of gold. Online seems like a no-go given the need to create an account and to have the coins sent to my address.

How do you people get round this issue?

Many thanks

Dimitri
