The gold standard coin

[Ravoma]

As I have been building up my gold stack I often see the gold standard coin going for less then the brit.

I find the design to be quite attractive. Is this a unpopular opinion or am I missing something? Thoughts.

I agree I think its a nice looking coin...probably based on demand... everyone wants a gold Brit

[GrahamDiamond]

I have two Gold Standard Coins, Quarter Ounce of Gold, Love the Design Coinsters !!!!!!!!!!!

[DBCooper]

Lovely coins and I have a few 1/4 ounce ones from various years 

I pick them up whenever I can at reasonable price. often can find them cheaper than Brits

With the CGT status same as Brits and often at a cheaper price.

I would get the gold standard coin over a Brit if the price was cheaper.

[Ravoma]

Yeah I agree I would get this over the brit if its cheaper.

I was just curious what puts people off the coin as it's not a overly popular coin.

If there was a 1 oz version available, I'd be more interested.

Really nice design. Always find myself buying sovereigns instead though

[Stuntman]

I really like them - definitely prefer them to the Britannia design.

Here are the 3 that I have.  I agree that it would look awesome as a 1 oz version.

Curious to know where you can get these at a smaller premium than the 5% I can get Brits from, at Chards.

Keep an eye on the special offers section at Bullion By Post sometimes these go on sale for 3% above spot then worthwhile pulling the trigger to buy them.

I’m having a clear out of gold bullion coins and low premium Sovereigns. Will be selling Krugerrands, Sovereigns etc at 2-5% over spot. Any interest PM me.

Personally I think The Gold Standards are stunning pieces and this was also the first gold I added to what used to be a silver only stack!

@Abyss is spot on with his recommendation and coincidentally this is where I picked mine up from thanks to a wee tip from @Tn21 at the time and I managed to get it for a great price!

What's not to like 🤷🏻‍♂️

I must be unlucky with my timing for looking at finely priced deals with Bullionbypost because every single time I look, they are on the extreme high side of all online bullion coin dealers for sovereigns, Krugerrands and Britannias. Still, I will look out for their extra competitive Gold Standard gold coins as I would like one now!

I picked up a couple of those bad boys. Delivered today. Very nice. 

[StackemHigh]

What sizes do they come in? Is it just the 1/4 oz ?

[eastie]

Thats all ive seen. Lovely little coins though. 

[FiveStacks]

Stunning that

[Hunter87]

I might start collecting these too I’ve never been fussed on the Britannia design.

[Divmad]

Did you get a good price for them? I paid over £400 for my first piece, in the mid-Summer.

[StackemHigh]

Nice design. I might get some of these. 

[eastie]

Cheapest i could find them was from RM. Cheaper than a 1/4 QB. Not far off cost of a 1/2 oz QB for 2 1/4 oz coins.
