Alas not. Tried to add but doesn’t go in the basket. Guess it sold already and site not updated

That's a shame. Cheapest I've seen one offered since launch

Can't afford all those capsules and fancy tubes. A few of these does the trick
My loose best price sovereigns are in a vitamin C tube at the front of the safe deposit box
Plastic NGC PF70 coffins take up too much safe deposit real estate for my liking
so only big bits are allowed in mine, five sov or 2oz gold

To save me reading a few pages back here. Should I be posting moon or booing GIFs today ??

Bought a sovereign while in town in Newcastle last Friday.
Buy something gold every month / six weeks as and when finances allow.
Buy little and often. Don't fret the price. Not arsed about buying dips and timing the market.
Just convert spare fiat to more gold grams as and when I can afford something

Something to whet your appetites, in case you haven't seen them before.
(Paper bag for scale)
I think it'll be especially appealing in gold
Not sure how this release will perform personally, my gut feel is saying it will be a bit of a damp squib. But i could be proved wrong

Two lessons learnt:
Should have bought less silver🤔
Should have bought more slightly larger coins such as full and half sovereigns 🤔🤷🏼♂️
oh well …. best keep going🤔😮😁🔥
Little and often. Builds your core stack.
My "best value" gold bought in the good old +3% over spot from HGM has nicely doubled and a bit on top, also some lovely always reasonable purchases from @arshimo2012 here on the forum in the early days.
Good foundations always make for solid decisions
As i learn, I'm now " quality over quantity " pf70 coffins of big gold 5sov or 2oz gold
Hopefully 3-4 large perfect purchases a year will pay dividends in my twilight years in a few decades time
Some Perfect proofs are at bargain prices at the moment.
My last £5 five sov memorial sovereign pf70 for £3000
Less than RRP ! These are totally stunning
I'll add it with the others and worry about the current dip in a 25years time

Yup. For some reason the cost really grates me but is a necessity. I just have to tell myself that without it, I wouldn’t be collecting and would’ve pissed it up the wall so the benefit outweighs the price.
I see it as a very reasonable price for peace to sleep soundly at night,knowing that someone else will be the end of a sawn off or machete if the fecal matter ever hit the rotary oscillator
I also have a back up pen drives of data/photos, crypto cold storage long term wallet, a few personal bits.
A deposit box is good value IMO
Who always feels a little bit Bond or Jason Bourne when they visit their stack behind closed doors ?

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 😀🥰
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
