A new facebook post by chards :

"This is what 35,000 silver Britannias looks like. That's 70 monster boxes containing almost 1.09 tonnes of the precious metal.
We're working hard on getting these sent out on a first come, first served basis. If you've ordered we will be in contact very soon."

GSR alternative = 11kg of gold, which shows the value density comparison and I know which is more wife friendly lol

That's what about 60 silver Britannias look like. The rest looks like big black plastic boxes.

This shows a good example where silver has the edge over buying gold . For anyone building a house extension or even a new build project these heavy black boxes can be used to fabricate internal and external walls. They are great for hanging radiators on , nice strong fixing points. They will also maintain their value and be useful when times are hard .

Obviously silver is far more accessible but do you think it's peoples tendency to want to own a mass of stuff that attracts people to it. Quantity rather than 'quality'? Unhealthy hoarding?

for those who are guessing 2020 might be a low mintage year for britannias,

chards might be able to confirm if those are all 2020.

True that gold is the better metal for bulk, but the two metals are different investments in my view, gold is money, silver is for speculation, either in expected faux monetary aspect or the industrial case. 

I would rather gold for the purpose of saving to compete with inflation and to preserve wealth over a long time frame, but silver is perhaps the better bet from here for relative returns.

It amazes me to see the likes of Chards and BullionbyPost etc being able to sell literally tons of silver coins at prices that we individuals can never even achieve selling on this forum or eBay.
Who are the buyers ?

They are always people or newbies out there buying silver from dealers. Part of this is may be to avoid getting any fakes in the market and by going to the names mentioned they can almost guarantee the silver is genuine. 

 

Some of my first silver orders via BBP came to £25 each for the trident privy Brittanias in mid 2017.

Do us a solid and show us the comparison photo for 11kg of gold 😄

No doubt in 50 years time people will be discovering partition walls made of those monster boxes full of shoddily minted 2020s

Hey! Every nick and hairline on those 2020's are minting errors and will add many thousands of percents when selling to collectors in a hundred years! 😉

Now there's a limited coin waiting to be struck! Perhaps one of our resident pourers could make a donkey strike? 🤣

Is it wrong that I am looking at that photo in hope that they will have empty monster boxes back in stock soon?
