No, there isn't.

You might be best to post a new topic about insurance cover, because other TSF members may know something useful.

Google might help.

🙂

Thanks. I am having second thoughts on storing at home given feedback from others.

Is there a list of good, secure insured storage in London that you can recommend for gold coins? I am using Metropolitan Safes currently.

Is anyone using Safe Deposit Boxes at Sharps Pixley in London?

No, but then I do have access to not one, but two, bigger better ones at special rates.

7 ounces of gold and 80 ounces of silver might not be a huge amount of PMs, but I start feeling uneasy keeping them at home.

It is worth being careful, and considering options.

I was considering the small safe deposit box at Sharps Pixely.

Probably a very sensible choice. I don't know what they cost, but I feel sure their facilities will be good.

My only doubt is that I could only access my assets 40 hourt per week (monday to friday from 9 am to 5 pm).

Not a terrible trade-off, unless you are totally paranoid.

A safe at home is also an option, but you would need a decent one, which is expensive, you would probably still need insurance, and at the worst you could be forced to open it under duress. You could have a timelock on it, but then you don't have 24/7 access.

Sharps security would be far better the Hatton Garden vault. 😎

Is there any good home insurance that you can recommend, one who would cover gold coins? I believe some insurance companies have clauses that cover gold jewelry but not coins.

Hi bullion70...

Best piece of advice I can give.. is get involved on the forum ( plenty of discussions daily) allow people to get a sense of your character? also look into getting a membership as it shows commitment on your part and let's you see deals as soon as they are posted...I know you stated your intention is to sell,but trust me after a few weeks on here,you won't be able to resist buying also🤣

As for selling and especially coins of large monetary value, consider offering the option of posting to established members first,then you get payment on receipt of goods, this has been done by many on here to build feedback. I've also personally done it myself. ( obviously you would only offer such a service to well respected/high feedback/high activity members, please check their feedback with a fine tooth comb)

Finally, enjoy the forum and I wish you luck.

Thanks James 32. That is very good advice. I will act on it shortly. Thanks again.

Hello Everyone!

I've just joined and wish to introduce myself. I've been stacking for a few years now, primarily gold Britannias, and have just retired. I intend to slowly sell my coins over time so as to generate an additional income stream during retirement, as and when needed. I would be grateful for any advice from more experienced forum members as to the best approach to selling here, especially given I have no track record as yet.

Best wishes.
