In 1964 I could and did buy gold sovereigns from Chard at £4.50 each, today the intrinsic value is £450. So 100x in 60 years 😮

Keep both gold & silver and buy regularly.. If you are "lucky" on a dip or "unlucky" on a top then just track the price you paid over time and you will most likely see a long term, upward trend as I have over the past 4 years. I track each coin so that I can see how each is performing from latest price. The aggregated amounts give me my portfolio valuation and gains overall. Yes some are in a loss for a while but others are gaining over time.

So true. Three years ago I bought a quantity at around £1450/oz - which was at the all time high for that period. For the next 2 years I watched the prices with little interest and then the reality of our world situation started to grip and now look where we are. Gold was an easy investment for me because of its track record. Over the long term it always comes out on top as a safe place to build your retirement fund. Gold may have a few corrections but looking ahead it is the most 'likely' commodity to at least keep track with inflation and safeguard retirement :)

I started stacking Silver in 2017 and Gold in 2018 and more than happy with the way the Yellow metal has performed and now confident that after a few heartaches, Silver will prove to be a good investment in the next couple of years. Though its getting harder to add to my Gold stack I am still adding a couple of Sovereigns each month and have no intention of stopping for the moment. My personal belief is that you wont recognise the world by the end of this decade...and not for the better, so building for 20 years is a waste of time and planning a much shorter timeframe of collecting. Keep it safe, keep stacking and prepare for things that will stretch your mental, physical and spiritual strength beyond what you can imagine. On that happy note enjoy yourself....its later than you think!!

@@jammypencils8295 i mean, VAT id only charged on sales by VAT registered companies. Do private sales and trades would always be VAT free. As for trading gold for silver to a business, the way it will be done on paper is they but you're gold, which they don't pay VAT on because the purchaser is a business, and "give" you the money, then you will buy the silver with that money. Meaning yes, you will still pay VAT

Be careful buying at ath if you bought silver in 2011 you'd still be underwater 13 years later if you bought it in 1980 you'd still be underwater 44 years later. Having said that i think gold has a way to climb yet but that's just my opinion be be very careful

I wouldnt be selling any gold until 1 or 2oz buys you a car, or 15oz buys a house. Yes people might find that crazy just now, but at the end of the day gold is insurance for the type of monetary mayhem such a scenario would indicate.

Gold and silver are two very different metals and silver is no longer the cheaper option. Silver is now seen more as an industrial metal and during times like now when production is down silver prices suffer so is highly unlikely to return to the days when coins were silver. I’ve been buying and selling since 2011 when silver hit $50 and has never reached anything near it. Gold has been reclassified as a monetary metal by the international bank of settlements (central bank’s central bank) and along with the dollar is the only tier one asset so is bought by hedge funds and pension plans. Gold might be expensive but people are better off buying a gram of gold than a tube of silver every time. It took 12 years of holding silver to finally offload it and buy gold only. I’ve learned this lesson the hard way after nearly two decades of trading and 13 yrs of precious metals. Silver also carries 20% VAT and is not capital gains free like royal mint gold coins. Buy silver to collect and because you like the coin but if you want to protect your wealth then gold is the only option. Don’t even go near platinum or palladium it’s unpredictable, purely industrial with very few uses and virtually impossible to sell

Good time to sit back and enjoy the gold you already have!

My strategy is to buy Best value bullion coins. Silver is not for me due to the VAT element unless it's bought on the secondary market. I drip feed into coins over time and the reason is very simple. The UK debt is £2.65 trillion and last year we spent more on paying the interest alone that we did on the entire education budget. This gets even worse when you take into account Public sector Pension liabilities increases out debt to close on £6 trillion. This will increase when Labour are elected come next eletion and they will borrow even more. All fiat currenecies are in the same boat, US Dollar, Japanese Yen, Euro, Chinese Yuan etc etc etc and within the next 5-10yrs countries will be forced to de-value.

Only been "in it" for a couple of years, sovereigns less than £400. But a best buy sovereign at £584. I think I will hang on and hope for a little dip. Nice one again BY.

Totally agree. When you consider the UK debt currently stands at around £2.67 trillion. We spent more on the debt interest last year than we spent on the entire education budget. Now add to that debt the Public sector Pensions liabilities and our dent stands at close to £6 trillion. Our currency ,like the Dollar,Euro, Yen and Yuan are fcuked in the medium term and there will be a lot of countries (us included) de-valueing and going back to the Gold standard. I don't see a Digital currency working personally..................... My prediction is £2,200+ by Christmas and on an upward trend . Global Politics and debt will drive it. IMO you have the right strategy. I'm no expert but I correctly predicted every recession we have had in the past 30+yrs including the 2008 GFC. All the best to you.
