Hello,
I am new to your forums - and collecting in general really. I have a collection of Royal Mint sovereigns, some gold/silver Britannia's/Valiants and a 10z bar that I have haphazardly collected over the years after I was first given sovereigns as a present as a child. However, I was considering branching out a bit more. I came across the EIC coins/bars which have some nice designs like the Queen's Virtues but the website only sells proof version (well above a reasonable price for a 1 Oz silver coin) and the 'bullion' versions only seem to be sold on places like Ebay or random coin websites (they aren't anywhere on the official website I can see - neither are the 10 Oz bars).
Generally what does the forum think of the EIC coins? Are they widely collected? Does anyone know where you actually source bullion coins from more officially, if they are worth buying?
Apologies if this is somewhere else on the forum - I couldn't find it - feel free to direct me to another post.
Thanks.
