Oxordshire in the house

[LemmyMcGregor]

Hey chaps, just recently started investing in metals and I have come across this forum by chance, will probably make a good reference point for me to learn about the topic.

From the little I've seen, Gold is better then Silver due to VAT, still, I thought I'd start with Silver as it's cheap enough to get started and I'm mostly into the habit of getting in the regular coin, with the idea of buying the odd cold coin in between while I learn the process.

For the time being, just browsing.

I'm just out of the ring road, good to know that there are other folks in the area.

Welcome to the forum, and remember: Silver is a gatway metal to gold

Welcome Lemmy,  like you I started with silver then got tempted and ended up with gold as well from what I have read diversity isn't a bad thing

[LemmyMcGregor]

Cheers chaps! Done a fair bit of reading on the topic while trying to formulate a plan, think I might end up with gold sooner than I thought, VAT on silver is a b***h... At present I am considering the idea of stacking a tube of Britannias just for the sake of getting started, after that switch to gold and throw some change at silver if I see some piece that I like.

Work in progress though, after getting my first pieces I'm going to save for the next two or three months while I spend some time learning.
