Just checked the single coin price and, as I suspected, it's the volume pricing 'from' price that doesn't make sense.
A single new coin costs £6 more than the second quality coin - the second quality coins 'from' price is if you are buying 2 or 3, but the new coin 'from' price is for 100+.
Personally I hate these 'from' prices, I reckon they should show the price for one, it would be a lot easier to compare without having to click on each coin for the single coin price.

You took your Gold advice off Gordon Brown? 😂
Welcome BTW

Great story and welcome. If there are any legitimate shops selling legitimate oz gold coins for those prices today let me know and I'll go and empty them out 😂

Hi Folks, as a new member I thought by way of introduction I'd tell you my gold story...
I got my first case of gold fever back in 2003 and promptly set off for Chards in Blackpool, where I spent about £3000 on 1oz coins. I remember Lawrence producing a 'Chard' coin that they had had made and asking what I thought of it, and, after I said I didn't think it was gold, he said 'congratulations, it's fooled a lot of people' and gave it me for free! (I've still got it somewhere).
Back then Krugerrands were £249, Maples £252, Australian Nuggets £260 and Pandas £302.
Then a few years later (2007 ish) I went back to Chards and paid £3,555 for a bag of 50 Sovs.
So I paid about £7000 for 24 ounces.
Anyway, I ended up selling it all (too soon, as it turned out).
Fast forward to 2021 and wouldn't you know it, I've been infected again! This time it's a slow slog, buying a 1oz Britannia when I can afford it and Sovs when I can't, but for me it's the only way to save.
God I wish I still had it all!
Cheers,
Mobius.
