And you'll have more to be worth more if it goes back up after you bought.

Wrong side of the Pennines, he were over thur. 😁

It's even better because the numbers you see, James32 is typing in on his terminal at the other end. 😁

I'm waiting for 1/64 sovereign. A....a...a.... 🤧 Wait where did it go? 😁

When the banner on here doesn't work maybe once a year. Some years in the past, I never looked at all. The banner catches my eye now, so I see it all the time.

I do understand your viewpoint, but if, like you, I was hoping for increased returns, I would hope that they would be gradual and sustained. Massive price swings are not good. It's all very well having a pile of gold (or silver in my case) which you're well positioned on, but if the economy begins to collapse properly, it's not good news. Whilst you are weathered from the storm somewhat, a 1922-23 event as in Germany would be catastrophic for all of us. No good getting paid if that very afternoon your wages don't cover your living expenses. Then you have to use your gold, what's left when it's gone? Gold going to the moon isn't always a good thing. Gold tortoising is the best... Slow and steady.

I'm a numismatist, I collect coins. I'm not bothered about them going up in value every year. I simply enjoy them for what they are. Many of my coins have premiums in excess of the bullion value. When bullion does make big moves though it makes it harder to purchase dates/types that I'm still after as they tend to rise in value as well.

Always the last biscuits left in a selection box, can't be that nice. Anything that has to advertise its desirability isn't usually worth it! 😁

I'm with you on this.

Shield sov yeah, St. George ... nah. Pass.

I want a million quid face value in shillings, silver ones. 😁

Adam sold his gold and got stung. A common theme I'm afraid... 😔

Stalker Alert! 🚨

You're mean! 😁

I'm impressed!

That is a cool jug!

You'll have to privvy mark the bars as having been on the Royal Mail detour... 😁

I still can't believe it went to Dangerous Goods. They must have thought it was Wizard's Chess. 😁

No, he got a written warning for wearing budgie smugglers on the forum. 😁

He said that was going to 400 as well.

It's a good lesson for beginners to read.

I was looking for this!

Bump - timeless.

Whatever happened to that post, "Sold all my gold, got stung."?

No. The silver is mine, hands off. 😁 Seriously. 😾
