    MergingCultures reacted to Foster88 in NGC grading are a joke   
    I’ve thought this for a while, grading, whilst helpful and shows authenticity, is just someone’s opinion.
    Look at the coin in the capsule. Make your own mind up.
    Buy the coin, not the grade.
    Some 69’s are better than 70’s.

    The optimist in me would like to agree with you. That being said the perfect storm of Covid, supply chain issues, unlimited helicopter drops of money, escalating tensions in Afghanistan and Russia in 2020-2021 should have sent both metals soaring long term. What we got instead was a surge in August-September 2020 that sent metals skywards followed by a plunge and then a lot of bobbing along. I suspect if anything it will be a repeat of this.
    Silver still hasn't hit $50 per ounce (even with the silver squeeze) and gold trickles along steadily straddling the inflation line.
    The pumpers promise an exciting rollercoaster ride with more ups than downs, when you finally get to the front of the ride queue you find bumper cars and teacups awaiting instead.

    I see these charts and countless YouTube vids and even email news letters,seems to me no more than gold/silver pumpers desperate to get sales up or taking add revenue from suppliers, why pump something so hard if its so obviously good?

    2002, 2005, 2012, 2017, bullion sovereigns are not bad it you can pick them up for a reasonable rate, also it’s nice for the collection to get the 2022 Jubilee/ memorial and 2023 coronation…..it’s a free hobby.  If you think about it.

    But don't forget the RM's change of strategy - it now seems to be to release as many coins as it can to get as much money out of collectors as is possible!  This is likely to impact on the performance of one's coins.  For the Coronation, we didn't just have the sovereigns, but there were the "Ounce" coins as well.  The Britannias used to be eagerly anticipated but now it is "Oh, what have they done to them this year"!
    And on a pedantic note, it could be argued that last year's Memorial sovereign was the first KCIII proof sovereign rather than this Coronation release!

    I've got mine, this is the last proof for a while. Unless KC3 pops his clogs.
    I was supposed to be stacking, but ended up getting the Jubilee, Memorial, SOTD, and this one.
    So rest of the year, bullion only. Someone please remind me of this message in a few months lol

    If I recall correctly they said that it would be saved for 'very special occasions', so unlikely. Then again, TRM use the phrase 'special' very loosely so take that as you will.

    Although I often buy coins already graded, I never send the raw coins out for grading that I buy from the mint or dealers.  I am a collector and do not buy coins to sell, so I really don't have much interest.  Part of it is the fear that the coin I will send out will come back graded lower than I expected.
