Totally agree. Price per once demands perfection.

Such a stunning coin... I'm going to keep requesting a replacement until I get a perfect one!
These are relatively minor imperfections, but I've paid too much not to expect better.

Replacement 2oz silver arrived... going right back again!
At this rate, it's going to cost them the full value of this coin on postage charges alone!
 
Missing frosting from some of the lettering and scratch marks and damage around the rim of the obverse.

On a serious note about silver. There are quite a few series of silver doubling in price on release. I just can’t stop myself buying Silver. I know I shouldn’t but once a Silver crack head always a s…..

As most here I have a bit of silver. To be totally honest I don't know why, but I like to keep in-between 12/1 and 8/1 silver to gold, I think someone mentioned that coming out of the ground there is 8 times more silver to gold and it's stuck in my mind. My gold is in the form of coins and mostly sovereigns and the silver I have is mostly in the form of bars. I do prefer the kilo bars to the ounce coins though. The issue I have with silver is the premiums and the VAT. I do try to keep an eye on the average cost for both gold and silver.
As some interesting metrics, Currently I'm at £1,627.96 oz on my gold and £20.08 oz on the silver. Also whilst I have 9.58 times more silver weight than gold, my gold value is 8.92 times more at spot prices than the silver.
I just think silver as an industrial metal is too useful for industry to be allowed to get too pricey as an investment metal. Gold on the other hand as a tier 1 asset I think is the one to stack.
 

Thanks for everyone’s input appreciate the conversation and hope to do buisness with you all one day 👌

Yes I have a well paid job at the moment but like you all know nothing is guaranteed and my grandad always said save for a rainy day so maybe he actually meant put your wages into gold 😂

Stefffana yes now this changes the hole situation me and my missus I’m 34 she is 31 and we don’t have children and carnt have them so if I had children maybe I’d buy lots of silver as it’s cheaper and easier to get bulk amount but because I don’t have anyone to leave to I’m planning my own retirement I earn pretty good money and I’m aware my industry I won’t be doing when I’m 60 so I have 26 years to get out the rat race which I do not want to be in when I’m 60 I’d like to stop at 50 to be honest

I really love silver and I believe in its potential. I have been attracted from beginning, my first piece of silver ever bought was a teaspoon from a charity shop. Then few high premium ounces (yes, beginner's mistake). I have started collecting and stacking for few years, I have changed in time my stacking habits, until I've been happy with the balance I've found, to satisfy my appetite without destroying my budget. 
Now, in my stack I have gold and silver in various shapes and purities, trying to keep approximately the same value, so ratio 1:1 gold vs silver.
Because everything is going to my daughters and my granddaughter, I am happy. The precious metals I am buying and keeping will not offer me a retirement in Tenerife, but will offer me a peace of mind about a financial insurance for my children and grandchildren.
