is your Koala very excited MB?

£5 Sovereign 1887 from HGM arrived today. Thanks again for the heads up on that one Kman!
 

 

You are a bad man. I now want a 100g Metalor. that money is meant to be for the new kitchen

I would love some silver bars but cant bring myself to pay the taxes. 

I like all of then from this side, it's just the other that puts me off

My goal is to have the equivalent of a half sov to cash in each month for 20 years and a couple of oz of silver a week. If that gives me circa £200 a month that the government doesn't know about then that's fine by me

Good goal to aim for. I'm only at 2 1/4 oz of gold but it's only since joining this forum that I bothered about gold. I did have an original goal of 200 ounces of silver but I'm at 300 ounces now. I've got another 23 years to go before retiring, unless I cash in earlier if the prices go to the moon:-)

One those one oz gold nuggets from HGM. (Year 1994)
Couldn't resist £716!
I seem to remember paying £1117 for a gold Brit in 2011/2012.

Another 1912 full sov and 1901 half sov to add to the stack -
 


 
Update full stack pic -
 
30.29 oz gold
3.9g Palladium
5.89g Platinum
60oz of silver Pamp Suisse bars
 

20 2015 ASE's
20 2015 Britannia's
7 mixed coins.
 
All from STG.
 
Also noticed they have added £7.37 to the cost for delayed shipping, now I think that is shite.  
 
Email sent expressing my annoyance, had I seen it then I would have just had it sent immediately. 
 
Right rant over.

My first Nugget. Bit of an old one, but still better looking than the small Sovs it has taken the place of.

This is my 8 1/2 oz of gold which has been static since I discovered STG in August. I was aiming originally for 10oz by end of the year which I would have made if not for silver stacking currently at 310oz. Looking forward to adding to my stack next year.

Just picked up something a bit bit different,  Its a quad metal proof Pobjoy coin with a mintage of only 999.  Apparantly its the only manufactured quad metal coin that contains Palladium.
 
999. Silver (4.65 gms) 999. Palladium (3.90 gms) 999.9 Gold (4.221 gms) 999.5 Platinum (2.78 gms)  

There is no way I am buying from abroad, or even the UK at this time of year. Hopefully will go low again in January.

Hi BB I think it is more down to astute buying the three full proof sovereigns I have I was a bit cheeky and asked if they would accept £190 each ad they did. So a very good deal. Also the 1oz Krugerrand I only paid £695 for it way back when.
