Well Done ! 1kg is a nice milestone to achieve
Aside, myself as a bit of a Dull Mans Club OCD freak who likes logic, order, tidiness, familiarity, minimalism and clutter free life, i much approve your arrangement and storage method. Maximising safe deposit real estate space, is all the more pleasing so you don't over pay for a larger safe deposit locker you don't need   

Reported for bragging.

Purchased a special sovereign off @James32 last week which means I owe a massive thanks to everyone on TSF as I've hit the 1kg of gold in full sovereigns 🙂 (That's 137 to save anyone counting 😂).
I started this journey just under 3 years ago after happening upon TSF after looking up what one was worth that was given to me by my grandparents when I was born. Gave myself the target of 1kg in 10 years (1 per month plus a few) and have smashed that. Honestly the best decision I've done and a great little nest egg for retirement. Here's to the next kg and once again, thank you all 😀🥰

Like it or not, I imagine a company can charge what they like for a product? If people are willing to pay the stupid prices for either older coins or the new releases then they’re not going to stop. As long as any of these coins sell there isn’t going to be any change.

should be called esco-bars and feature hippopotamus designs

Should be scarface with that background.

Depends, are they trying to appeal to Scandinavia or Colombia?

That looks like the wrong kind of snow.

Don't get me started!
How about this belter for £270

 

One is enough… will fit nicely in the purpose made box🤔😮😂

🤔😁fine by me🤔😮

A couple of pints of stella usually does the job.

Maybe it will look better in bullion or the dark

The price of the G&D great engravers 2oz gold next week

You called it. What are the Lottery numbers for this week?

I prefer the original design.

Same here, but the security issue escapes me. Surely a thief could just take the collection of plastic cards that most people have and make a number of contactless purchases very easily?
I try to carry £50-£250 on me. At the moment it's quite a bit more than that as I recently sold a couple of car parts (cash). Surely that's still way less than the value of the latest Applsung Mongmaster S99i that these non-cash pillocks swank around with?

I like privacy. What I do with my money is nobody's business.
With a very few exception, I don't trust anyone, and the State is the entity I trust the least. Historically the worse atrocities have not been committed by individuals, but by governments, and the fact that the government would want to track everything I do is a scare proposition.
Polish extermination? Government.
Cossaks extermination? Government.
Jew extermination? Government.
Holodomor? Government.
Armenian genocide? Government.
Ah! But those are things of the past!
Uyghur genocide. Ongoing, government.
Rohingya genocide. Ongoing, government.
Darfur genocide. Ongoing, government.
Governments that want to abuse their population first remove their ability to defend themselves, queue gun control and removal, then remove their ability to store wealth, so they take the gold.
Now, I am confident that you have absolute trust in the British government, all parties have solid proven records of trustworthyness and we should give them all our details knowing that are in safe hands, who would not trust our Tory government or a possible Labour government with all of out private information? You know, the guys that keep repeating that we need a wealth tax.
But bare with me for a minute, say that by chance someone not trustworthy takes over, or maybe we are invaded by a foreign entity or, without going to excesses, the government gets hacked, or someone steals and sell that data, and now you have a bad actor that knows exactly what and where you have it, would you not have wanted to keep that data private? And what better way to keep that data private than to use cash?

Barrels along quite well, goes like a bullet really. I had them in my sights after seeing them in a magazine I was rifling through, then finally pulled the trigger and got one.

Not true, I eat my cornflakes and stir my coffee with a britannia. #worksmarter

Only under 1% from population seen 1oz Britannia.
Over 99% from population will recognise a spoon.
Just sayin'...😊

Remember reading that owning egg-laying hens was a life-saver for some...
