2 please

I  would like to purchase the tarnished 1oz Silver Austrian Philharmonic Coin.

Tavex are a good company to deal with. They tend to consistently be one of the cheaper dealers

Lowest premium 1g bar you can get from a dealer at the moment I believe and while relatively new in the UK Tavex are well known in Europe, and fast becoming a popular dealer here with some of their deals
While you pay a lower premium when buying you should also expect the same when selling.  Other brands will always be more popular on the secondary market, but gold sold at the right price will always get a sale.   

So on the second hand market priced at that lower premium, people will be interested in buying it in the future.Thanks. 
Kindest regards Shaun 

No problems. Glad to help.

Thanks 👍
 
I can't believe after all the searching I done it was available on ebay.
Got one ordered.

A UK eBay seller appears to sell a comparable item for this.

I hope that this will help.

Just a heads up, these are £11 cheaper each from Tavex, so I'd advise pricing them under that to prevent you needing to bump until the sun turns into a red giant.

You can also put up wanted post's stating budget and items needed at any given time. As long as price is realistic, your order will be filled rather quickly. 

These beauties arrived just now... 

I don't mind bars. I think if I want to take advantage of the lower prices on this forum. I would need to save 2 months of budget to allow for the membership fee postage and to be able to see posts earlier. 

1oz britannias are turning up here for sale at the moment for between £25.50 and £27 a coin. So 3 of them + post will keep you in budget. Or 4 to take you just over. Also its the 2023 Queen (last) and Charles (first( coins that are doing the rounds at the moment. Some saying they will be popular in the future due to their significance. So id start with a few of them.
If you look at what they are selling for at the dealers, they are selling for a bargain price on here.
Your purchasing power is stronger than mine at the moment 😄👍

Thank you, for all the information and opinions.  I look forward to making some purchases on this forum in the near future.

What it the most economical way of accumulating silver on a tighter budget?  Thank you for any constructive advice given. 

I’d suggest sticking to coins or bars that are easy to sell as well. Pick brits or something that’s pretty common so if you need cash in a hurry it’s easy. I’d avoid sterling silver or some of the ‘premium’ coins that you see from time to time 

TL:DR - Buy a Premium Membership on TSF (silver or above) and hang out in the UK ungraded section.
The most economical way to accumulate silver on any budget is to gain as much knowledge as possible. You are on the right track by posting here
Be on TSF and buy a Premium Membership - silver or above. This is pretty much essential as the best value deals are hidden from non-premium members for 3 days. If they are good value they will generally sell out within 3 days (or 3 minutes if Salesman32 is on the prowl) TSF can offer the best value as there are 0% selling fees. There are other 0% marketplaces like Facebook but that's a much riskier proposition. To successfully navigate risk you have to know the value of each item and also be able to verify authenticity. Verifiers and such tend to be expensive which defeats the purpose. With silver it's very rare to find deals at spot so you need to be hyper-vigilant if you come across any such deals online. TSF is a much safer environment and more accountable than FB or eBay Auctions, estate sales, coin clubs and other private sales. This takes a lot of work but people have managed to buy silver at spot or even below spot from estate sales in particular. When you factor in the time and expense of travelling, researching and participating in auctions, then the real-terms price is higher and proportionally higher the less you buy. Verification can be an issue depending on what you buy. For bullion coins like modern Britannias which have security features you don't need to spend any money verifying
The most time-efficient and viable method is hanging out in the TSF trade section and jumping on good value listings. This depends on spot price and the general mood but you should be able to pick up single silver coins in good condition for £24-28 in a capsule. Most sellers aren't going to offer free shipping on a single coin and the objective is to stack at the lowest possible premium, so, to get the best price you will probably have to buy 10 coins minimum or more likely 20 or 25 coins (a tube) (£500-650)
The cheapest coins lately are probably 2023 KCIII Britannias. There's lots of them about and the going rate appears to be £24.50-28/coin, with a realistic price being in the middle around £26/coin. These offers are generally only available to Premium Members
Buying when spot is "low" is easier said than done especially for silver. Nobody really knows what "low" is for silver and we all have our opinions on that. IMHO the price right now is "low" as I expect it to be higher within the near future. The absolute lowest silver can go IMHO is $18/oz and much more likely the floor is $20/oz (£16). In the UK you have to consider VAT so even if silver is £16/oz spot it's going to be £20/coin + for physical. It's unlikely IMHO to ever be £16 again. There is strong support around $25 (£20), the price keeps bouncing around that support lately. There's more strong support around $22.50 (£18)
Realistically a "low" price for silver in the near future is £18-20/spot. There is the premium to pay for physical on top of that so £24-25/coin is a very good price IMHO and you're unlikely to find coins in good condition below that price unless you are a bullion dealer
IMO buying poor condition coins (badly milked or physically damaged like dings or bent out of shape) is not a great idea. Those are much harder to sell in private sales. You can sell coins in any condition to a bullion dealer but you'll only get spot for them, maybe even below spot if they're really bad, and you paid above spot to buy them. If you purchase a Britannia in good condition for £26 you can sell it immediately if you need to for £26
