How is the quality on your Green Dragons? I bought 5 on release and all had scuff marks on the Queen's face and the Dragon's body from friction in the tubes.

I heard it's a common problem on this first release and many were even recalled.

Bullion is synonymous with poorer quality. They quite literally churn them out... ‘Bullion’ is a Numismatic Grade!

Received these two beauties on my top most wanted list...A tremendous “Thank you for all of your help!!!” to @richatthecroft for facilitating these purchases from two great The Silver Forum members, @ST1986 and @InvestInCoins888!!

Firstly, finally received one of the most beautiful and tantalizing Gold Britannias, a 2003 1/4 oz Gold Britannia Proof.

And close to closing out my 2017 Gold Sovereign collection, a glorious 2017 Gold Sovereign Proof!! Just need to finish up with the 2017 Gold Double Sovereign (Hint, hint 😁).

Many thanks for the shout @CadmiumGreen A marvellous Britannia design the 2003, definitely in my top 3.

These are 1943 dated Canadian 10 Cents and 25 Cents, both made from .800 silver, the Canadians used higher grade silver in their coins long after the UK had gone to 50% and were still using silver when the UK had stopped using silver altogether.
The 10 Cents coin featured a famous sailing boat called the Blue Nose, this ship was built as a duel fishing and racing vessel and won many races, it was built in Canada in the 1920's and was wrecked in 1946.
The 25 Cents (or quarter dollar) coin featured a Caribou on the reverse, more commonly known as a Reindeer, Canada's coins feature lots of their national wildlife and still do.
Production of the two coins for their specific years are as follows.

10 Cents 1943 dated,    21,143,229 minted

25 Cents 1943 dated,   13,559,575 minted

The 10 Cents is roughly the same size as a UK 5p and tiny.

 

I found this little beautiful Canadian 10c Coin in a lot of mixed silver! It’s currently winging its way back to Canada after selling for 3 figures, more than the whole lot of silver cost.

Well done @Troy77 a well deserved winner! 

Odd, let me just buy one...

Yes I have bought a few from Baird and have a big order in now 🙂 The 1kg are better to but tyhan the 1000 oz bars as it works out cheaper don't ask me why 😕

I’ve been buying in 2 or 3kg a time range for the last few months and never waited more than a week.

Put in an order for 8 and it’s been 3 and a half weeks without dispatch... Boo!

I’m not sure about this, I have a feeling silver will rise quite a bit in the coming months due to delays, backlogs at the post and shortages at dealers even if the mints open. I’m curious to see if 2020 will be a low mintage for everything 

I’m 100% with you here. Once all this virus stuff has settled, I think we will see Silver level out at a significantly higher spot than we’ve been used to. 

Im a betting man and I’ll lay a tenner on spot price of silver this time next year between £25-35oz.

Markets are behaving strangely all over the world at the moment.  Could be natural or more likely manipulation by governments,  although when it's by governments we call it interventions (if discovered). Lol

It’s clear there is some serious manipulation going on right now. You can be sure there is an small group of elite making themselves even more money...

Did you see the 1oz Royal Ams? They look lovely... I filled my basket last night but found a glitch in the system that wouldn’t let me get past the add your address page!

Today I received a golden Easter Egg. Unfortunately, it has arrived a bit late due to the Corona panic.

Hang on, wrong one

....

Today, I received my first Indian Head American Eagle, thanks to

@ST1986

That’s a counterfeit egg! 

Silver taking a hit again!  I honestly thought we’d be swinging back up by now!

Shows the dramatic rise when you notice such a significant growth in price with a relatively small weight coin! When you think about the value £600 savings would have lost by simply sitting in the bank since November... Hindsight, wonderful thing.

Not touching Gold but paying massive premiums on silver and platinum?, interesting take. Can I ask your thoughts?

Platinum in particular is MASSIVELY undervalued right now. Price correction imminent...

Just now, Pipers said:

Yeah your right, so it stands to reason when the mints start up again the premiums will come down as the dealers become competative again.

The only issue I see with Platinum in particular though is how undervalued it is. It was already very undervalued before the recent dip, in my humble opinion. Now it just looks ridiculously cheap, a fantastic investment opportunity. Not often you get an opportunity to make big short term gains with PM, I believe this is one!

We just have to hope prices haven’t gone up significantly before mints begin to catch up with production.

I would just like to say about 1Toz platinum coins,  The prices are more expensive now to buy a coin than it was before the price dip. 

Scarcity... Even Royal Mint mysteriously added £100 overnight to their Beasts Series last week.

Fair enough the reason I asked is because they had zero stock when I tried a couple of weeks ago

I ordered start of last week. Gold was a 3 day turn around and I’ve just put a platinum order in so will see!

NIce! Where did you manage to get the 1KGs fromm? I quite fancy some Baird and Co bars 

Great price and only 5 working days! Bairds...

Bairds have got the price War sown up, 1oz Bar for £640. Even with VAT and a bit of a wait it’s the cheapest Oz of Platinum Europe Wide.
