Bought a 1/2 sov from HGM on Friday. Will collect during week.

Over the weekend I bought the following from STG

25nr Noah Arks 1oz silver

1nr Cougar 1oz silver

1nr Lynx 1oz silver

1nr Snow Falcon 1.50oz silver

1nr Bison 1.25oz silver

3 lucky dip sovereigns from HGM 

20nr 1oz 2016 Noah Arks from goldsilver.be

First time ordering from them.

First precious metal purchase since 25th April 2015!

It is good to be back

I am afraid of moving into the collecting side of things. I could do serious damage to my wallet, but the lunar proofs are beautiful!

I have gone a bit mad this month but whenever I binge on PMs I always think that it's an asset to me rather than pissed up the wall, handed over the bookies counter etc

Thanks it is a definite milestone. I had no targets as such when I started so it is fun gaining more insight and seeing what other people collect or stack. But the more I see the more I want so discipline is required..... (Which I lack lol)

Today I bought the following from STG

2015 Koala's 1/2oz x 4

2015 Maple Leafs 1oz x 25

2015 Britannias 1oz x15

2015 Elephants x2

Funnel Web Spider x 1

It has taken me through the 100oz of Silver Barrier which feels great. 

Out of interest (I'm new), would it not make more sense to buy say a 10oz lunar/kook which would cost less than £0.30 more an ounce and have some potential premium when you come to sell it further down the line? 

 

Realise I may be talking nonsense, just trying to get my head around it all!

It's a good point, but I kind of like having lots of smaller coins rather than one 1ozer. It helps my stack look bigger lol

@mr-dead that is an amazing achievement! Agree with @Keithoil 1kg is a magical target!

My gold total is 16.65oz so am a touch over halfway

Congrats

A 1/10oz Krugerand

Today I bought 2 sovs and a 1/2 sov from HGM

Today I bought ten 1oz Philharmonics from Silver to go......

First silver since November

I missed out on HT's goodies but cheered myself up by buying 5 sovs from HGM 

Today I bought 2 sovs and 2 half sovs from HGM.... First purchases of 2015!

My work contracted ended in Feb so I battened down the hatches for the last few months....

I am working again so back stacking Sovereigns :0

I am saving cash for if and when my contract ends. I work in oil and gas so things are precarious. This along with the rise in PM prices has meant I am holding fire on buying any more PM's.

My gold is currently up 10% which is good but I am in for the long haul and will dip back in when I have some cash to play with

Final purchase of the year 5 mixed year Sovereigns from HGM

Today I bought 5 mixed year Sovereigns from HGM

Today I bought from STG

2014 bird of prey eagle 1oz

2014 bird of prey falcon 1oz

2014 Noah's Ark 1oz x 2

2015 Canadian Bison 1.25oz x 2

2015 Somalian Elephant 1oz x 2

A 2 peso Mexican coin it is a tiny 1.6g!

Cheers JC1989.

I picked up 1 1979 QE2

1 1890 Victoria old head

1 1898 Victoria mourning head

And a 1928 George V SA mint

No idea will collect them on Friday when I am off work

I will edit this then and put the dates up.

Today I bought 3 mixed year Sovereigns

That is me done for this year 

Stacking is an expensive hobby but an awesome one

Yesterday I bought another 4 mixed year Sovereigns

My gold stack is now a touch under 10oz

Good to have the forum back on line
