    Would you sing/rap for my amusement first, seeing as you have lower feedback and I'm not sure how good youd be?

    It took me under a minute to find another one of these extremely rare coins:

    UK 1887 Wales Crown Coin Silver COPY
      £1.48 £2.17 -32% Store Discount: Buy 6 get 3% off    DASHUMIAOCOIN_2017 Store   I am thinking of investing in 6 of them, or perhaps seeing if there are any other quantity discounts. If I buy 100, that's only about £148 for 24,000 worth of coins. Will these be a good investment for the future? 😎

    I respectfully need to correct the Right Honourable Member for Blackpool over the use of the phrase " Hartlepool United Supporters Trust"
    The learned gentleman incorrectly added a second "s" in the name of the trust.
    There is only one supporter, Lord Jeff of Stelling!

    As for gold advice for the OP.
    Tap Gordon Brown for advice. Then do the exact opposite...

    By the sounds of it any gains you make by saving the 20% VAT are entirely written off by the 19% corporation tax, accountant fees, taxing cash out the company via dividends etc.

    We might have to wait a year.
    I could work on getting some unofficial trial pieces made early, but I think the Royal Mint might take a dim view.
    I know some of my writing gets quite lengthy, but I might end up with a very long sentence.
    Would any TSF members come and visit me?

    I always consider selling silver when I want to buy gold. I then buy the gold first and after I’ve bought it, I can’t bring myself to sell any silver.  I think it’s an illness. 🫣

    If all you own is one ounce of gold, it doesn't really matter, but it would still be easier to carry / post than 90 ounces / 3 kilos of silver (in any form).
    If you have 2 or 3 kilos of gold, in any form, and you want to sell / deliver / post / move / transport / store it, it is much easier than doing the same with 180 or 270 kilos of silver in any form. Multiply that by a factor of 10, and the gold is still easy enough to handle, even in aeroplane hand luggage. Don't try that with the eqquivalent value of silver. It would not even work with a car, or 3.5 tonne van, you would need a 7.5 tonne wagon, and a licence to drive it!
    😎
    An ounce of gold is easy to sell. I / we happily buy 500 ounces at almost any time, without notice, for immediate payment, and at competitive rates.

    WTF
    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
    Jump to navigationJump to search
    Look up WTF in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.
    WTF most often refers to:
    WTF (Internet slang), an expression of disbelief
    WTF may also refer to:...
    Humour
    When you have gained a little more experience on TSF, you will find that most of the active members have a sense of humour, even some of the American ones.
    Please don't confuse this with ignorance or stupidity. There is much good advice available here, and most of it has not been planted by paid influencers and lobbyists. It is worth listening to and learning from. There are of course, a wide range of differing opinions, which is understandable. Most of the members live in countries which are democracies, and where there is free speech.
    There is often much truth wrapped up in humour. you can choose to unwrap it, or throw it away without trying it.

    Hey man, what with the double line spacing, I just had to turn my widescreen monitor through 90 degress to be able to read you post.
    WTF is a "fifth correction wave"
    If you think those first 2 lines of mine sound stupid, they are not half as stupid as thinking or saying that "gold is in a fifth correction wave and it will crash to $1000 soon". Whoever said it is either stupid, a liar, or both.
    It could happen, but it is not as likely as me being elected Prime Minister next week.
    A lot of TSF members are still waiting for silver to crash to $4 per ounce as confidently forecast here a few year ago, by someone called Wonger, who seems to have disappeared.
    Lastly "There's a guy works down the chip shop swears he's Elvis"

    Typical of the moaning Welsh lot. They moaned about having Charlie for as long as I remember and aren't showing any gratitude they have William instead. 
    Apart from leeks, lamb and pretty flowers they fail to contribute anything to the United Kingdom. Well, apart from usually poor quality coins. Time to extend the Bristol Channel up a good but, crowbar Wales off and ask those nice chaps in Perth if they would be so kind as to mint coins for us! 😄

    I am given to understand that portraits and designs for licky sticky stamps have existed for some time. So I imagine the mint is similarly prepared and both institutions would be ready to move when given the nod. I would think preparing dies will take significantly longer than printing off stamps mind you!
