I haven't seen a buffalo in the flesh so to speak mine arrives tomorrow. ( Not excited at all). 

I have a krugg and a roo nd a wafer brit just trying to decide what's next

Can't see you being disappointed with a buffalo. Maples and Eagles don't excite me too much but are still good, well recognised options different to what you already have. I'd probably look for whatever comes up at best price if you're looking for variety

Looking forward to picking up my first 1oz in a couple of months once funds are recharged, the list of wants are:

- Tudor beasts, got both the 1/4oz and want to get the 1oz's, the lion already seems hard to find at dealers but im guessing they'll appear on here from time to time

- Buffalo, i think its a really nice looking coin.

Lastly not a coin i know but i really like the Perth Minth 1oz square cast gold bars

thats April to July sorted out then skint for another year 😆

About 5%?

I paid less than £1000 for it.

The problem is trying to price it, as discussed elsewhere. Difficult with so few (99!) peers with which to compare with.

Technically, alcohol is a solution..

Surely the gold Britannia is the only coin to stack/collect?

It is the most respected and coveted bullion coin in the world!

With a nod to @Paul's Chat Ai and @LawrenceChard's struggle with translation software (Africe?), I thought I'd bring your attention to Britannia love from around the world.

A couple of years ago, a topic appeared on TSF that was at first rather keen but then drifted into madness. Initially I thought it was penned by one of our friends from the West Coast of Africa, but then discovered it was from a guy in sunny Norwich, Vietnam.

I usually turn any spellcheck software off, and will never rely on any translation software, but this chap clearly does:

'The Gold Britannia

Considering regarding 31.103 grams, the Britannia 1oz gold coin was initially presented in 1987 by the Royal mint. It was rather prominent among financiers, which caused the Royal Mint to create it in silver in 1997 and also platinum in 2017. With a face value of £ 100, all the British Britannia gold coins produced beginning the year 2013 have 1 ounce (about 31.1 grams) of pure quality gold bullion. The Britannia gold coin was crafted by Philip Nathan, who many consider an excellent artisan as well as designer of coins symbol. Philip later on defined the coin as effective, stylish, womanly, relaxed, and regulating.

SUMMARY

The Gold Britannia coins produced from 1987 to 2012 have 32.69 millimeters of diameter. The 22-carat coins were made with an ounce of Gold, combined with 2.95 grams of copper until 1989 and after that silver from 1990 to 2012, which brought about the change of color of the coin.

In 2013 the Royal mint changed it to a 24-carat of great Gold with a size of 38.61 millimeters. In its very first year of production in 2013, it was a thin as well as level coin of regarding 1.6 -1.65 millimeters density, which just lasted one year. In 2014 the royal mint returned to the original diameter of 32.69 millimeters and also 2.8 millimeters of thickness, although it retained its 24-carat residential or commercial property. It is likewise worth mentioning that both the 22-carat as well as 24-carat British Britannia coin has the very same quantity of Gold; hence their price is similar.

Like all the coins in Great Britain, The 1oz Gold Britannia has the face of QUEEN Elizabeth the second on the front as well as the head of Excellent Britain's famous icon Britannia (her picture signifies terrific Britain's stability and strength) on the back( reverse) of the coin.

The Britannia 1oz gold coin is amongst the hardest to counterfeit due to its radial and sunburst design.

@Paul   Yes the Tudor Beast series is a no brainer for me,   The bullion coins are better than the proofs IMO and they are only bullion so I look at these "collectable  bullion"  as a free hobby they are always going to be worth the intrinsic value and possibly carry an additional premium in the future.   

I genuinely like the detail within these coins.

These would be my favourites at the moment, I know it's only 5, I suppose I'd add a Britannia perhaps 2010 and leave 2 spaces for the remaining Tudor Beasts if I had to choose 8 🤔

 I love a 1oz gold, makes up most of my stack.

 Top 8? Couldn't say...actually that's not true, I was too busy trying to make a list that would impress people and make me look like I have great taste like a pretentious tit which caused me to keep going round in circles.

 I'll just say queens beast completer is my favourite, also first bit of gold I bought along with an una bar and a brittania.
