Shep

I like to try and buy a bullion sovereign at least once every two months as a minimum. It gives me the thrill of a purchase (as sad as that sounds) with the bonus of saving my money. Ive found that if you buy the “lucky dip” options, 7/10 you’re getting a George V sovereign. I think sovereigns are pretty unique in their semi numismatic properties which does keep it interesting. The variety is just so vast, especially when you start getting down to Queen Vic’s die numbers etc. I’ll probably be labelled a blasphemer and be cast out of the forum for saying this but I really enjoy buying post 2000 non special year bullion QEII sovereigns and seeing my stack of them grow. Just a nice pile of boring, stackable, cgt free crown gold bought with no numismatic premium. Whilst compared one on one to a one ounce coin a sovereign may seem lame, they sure look and feel nice when there’s 20 or so stacked up in a tube.
