I'm not sure I will know any time soon. Because i am not from the UK, so backyard is not really an option. And no one in my circles collect gold like i do. So i would have to find someone who can check it. But i am Working on it. On a side note i just picked up a 1oz 1987 gold eagle for 6% over spot. So that was nice hahah.

Well. Since I am still on vacation i can't know for sure. But i am fairly certain it is.

Indeed. I did some research on the coins. They are made by a company in Croatia. They are ordered like this. So you can order coins with different motives. So this just landed in this shop by random. The story behind the coins is actually cool. Was it waaaay to expensive. Absolutely. Was it worth it: knowing what i know now. Then yes I'd say so.

Yes i see. And that concludes i have a very expensive vacation memory. With no real value. And that i will keep it forever as a token of my own stupidity. I should make it in to a necklace that i can wear like a donkey hat.

Can anyone translate this ? Don't mock me lol. I was in a rush and made a bad decision lol

U are probably right. As long as we learn from mistakes then we won't make them again. But sadly i expect u are right.

Well. Either i picked up a long term gem because few remain. Or i got turist scammed and have a very expensive memory.

Because I'm a moron obviously. But I got the certificate it was a jeweler so. I was not to worried. The local guide also said that they were trustworthy. Long story. But I felt like having it lol. It was weighed in the shop on a scale. And the certificate is with it. But yah. I'll fly back and kick their teeth in if it's fake.

Forum gurus. I need your help. I'm currently on vacation and picked up this gold in Croatia. I have a 24k certificate for it and paid a heavy premium for it. But have any of u ever seen it before or have any kind of info on it. It is as said 24k and 7 grams. Thank you all.

So I went i lille overboard after getting the taste for shiny gold. And this is what I ended up getting in a month. 1x 1oz gold Buffalo 2021 1x 1/2oz Armenian noah's ark 2x gold sovereigns The sovs are a funny story. As I went to pick up the Buffalo, I asked the store about sovs. He said he had some. So I asked for a price. He said 10% over spot. Then he put in a "but". If I was to buy 2x sovs he would throw in something special. So what I ended up getting was 2x sovs the 1 being a 1890 and the something special was an 1883 sov. Selling me both at a total of 770eur. Looking at the prices in general for the 1883 I accepted in a calm but fast way. Very Very happy

And now I see there is a 29eur shipping cost. So that I also need to look at. Because buying a 1/2 brit at 835 would be cheaper. But the other coin might be more rare I guess?? Non the less I made my first jump in to gold. And I have now ordered one. ☺️

I can see I have allot of learning to do. Scouting for coins. Learning all the different markets. Ect ect. That is gonna take some time. Your work and advice is very much appreciated. And I think I will actually buy one of them now.

Thank you for this observation. Sadly they are not in stock right now. But I will look more actively for them.

Might just have struck a bit of luck. Found a guy locally selling 2x Krugerand 1oz for 2690eur... Just need to make sure they are real.

Well in sure they did. And yes they bought from european dealers. I'm also "limited" to bullion by post or European mint as examples. I will have a look at the queensbeast. And the sovs. With current prices from big retailers like I mentioned I can only pick up 5 thou. Maybe you know of a better place to buy? There are allot of sites but searching them all for the cheapest is time consuming taking shipping and legitimacy in to consideration. I started with silver a few years back. And I want to add gold in to the stack other than jewelry. So I have been saving up for a short while to pick up at least 1oz to start with. And with silver primiums being so high I am looking to add gold continously. So I am trying to find the coin that suits my budget and interest. It would also serve as a hedge against inflation and in these times against negative interest rates on Fiat in the bank. Also why liquidity could be a factor. But I will try to avoid having gold as a short term thing. There are no taxes or vat on gold here. So I could go to any European dealer or country to buy it and take it home.
