lol - I don't keep records so I'm unable to take the title but I have had to develop gills.

[Stuntman]

Just over 110 oz at £25.67 per ounce.  Bullion coins and bars, all bought new from UK dealers for my sins, between 2017 and 2022 😲

It's a collection rather than a stack is what I keep telling myself!

[steve3jant]

You’re a bigger loser than me. My stack has been building over 18 months with all purchases from TSF. Majority bullion coins with a few 1oz bars. £25.65/oz.

Did you fall for the Hunt brothers trick?

[flyingveepixie]

£27.70 an ounce (approx). All Brits apart from a couple of Germania mint Valkyries which cost £40 each and push the average up a tiny bit. 

It's comforting to know that there are at least a couple of guys out there who made an even worse blunder than I did.. 🤣

Really! Where’s the fun in a collection if you don’t know where you’re up to? 😵‍💫

Why punish yourself with all that negative math 😃

[Junior]

Won't tell you my accumulative total, but I started in 2015 when my purchases were £14.50 an ounce.

Not violently, couldn't find the symbol for the "£"

Sold too early 😔

Engelhards and Pamp 10ozs for £155, kilos for £425... 😭

I hope someone, at least, learns by my mistakes!

Just like me then ... old school ...

[SiCole]

I have 1oz at £99.95 (British monarchs George) and in the next 10 years it will sell for cost on ebay (never again)

[Roy]

To be fair, the post is a bit disingenuous 😇

Clickbait, if you will.

Like many, I started off with silver and gold soon turned my head. I sold the best of my silver at, perhaps, a small profit and ploughed the money straight into gold, which has performed well, thank God.

But had I kept the silver, that would also have performed well, and I would have had some nice pieces to look at.

What is left is the silver I paid too much for and couldn't possibly recoup at this stage. Patience is required. 🥱

Apologies to the silver stacking fraternity, I am one of you, and I am still the biggest loser!

The badge is mine.

Whats the cheapest sovereign you have bought?

[Roy]

.....about 11oz of silver? 😇

@Roy I bet your compensated in other areas.😎

[sixgun]

i have bought a few proper pirate coins which will have been pricey per ounce but i don't count them in ounces. 
i never stress about my coins and bars. i have never sold any, i have no idea what my average price is and i stopped counting how much i have several years ago.

No point really when it was all lost in a tragic boating accident.

72 pounds for a 2002 proof half sovereign back in 2002, at the time it was way over priced
