First 🥳🤩🎉🥇
Man this guy is fast 😏
The St. George/dragon is my favorite
Can’t beat the classics hey?
The stack is looking sexy bro starting to crush it
Haha thanks mate. We’re not quite in the 100 Oz club but north of 60 Oz somewhere
I’ve had 4 krugerrands and they where all 1974 must be a very high mintage coin what are those fancy coin tubes ??? Those are sweet still don’t have any Gold sovereigns yet but I need some (ok wants some 😂) the stack is looking great bro
I’m not sure on Kruger mintages but low years were in the 10s of thousands initially and became millions per year mid 70s to mid 80s
They look like shotgun shells. I noticed them never seen before

Have you any proof coins at all? I got a good deal on some proof 1/2 Sovereigns from 2002, 2005, 2021… bought at an average of around £2000 / oz. Seen the new release today for the 2022 memorial sovereigns… they work out at over £3100 / oz! Proofs are also harder to shift, dealers low ball you on them. I’m with you on sticking to best value sovereigns.
I have a couple and have had a few in the past. I don’t like all the boxes and things that come with and I prefer just to work with the gold value of a bullion coin than speculation as to what premium a proof would be. They can do really well but I am more a stacker than collector
where do you look for your sovereigns?
I browse a few dealers and a couple of offline coin shops and then the 2nd hand market from time to time too. Dealers prices have been s bit up and down recently. I think HGM had best prices yesterday but depends what you’re looking for and stock levels it changes often.
The Austrian Philharmonic for me followed by the US Buffalo. Sensible premiums on the stunning Phili’s and ridiculously high on the Buffalo’s, but you need to be top heavy on Royal Mint coins just in case HMRC get their dirty little mitts on our hard earned stacks with their Capital Gains shenanagans!!! 🤬
Yeah if there was a change to the CGT rules or for eg a CBDC or something then the British coins will have been a good move. I do love the buffalo though
I wouldn’t throw any of your Gold coins out of bed for eating crackers.
Hahaha but the crumbs
My favourite gold coins that I have are not even British. My Mexican gold like to 50 Pesos & 20 pesos designs are two of my favourites. The British Britannia’s come close behind.
Mmm 😋 have to agree the 50 pasos is a beaut hey CCT
They’re a nice chunk those 50 pesos. I moved mine on to try and keep the stack a bit more uniform but what a coin. I like a lot of Mexican coins too actually
I’m of half British descent and live in the states. My mother was a British war bride back in the day. Anyway I luv the sovereigns. Unfortunately they not popular over here and I’m afraid of them being hard to liquidate. I’m 61 and have to be careful of my purchases. I would luv to own that 2022 rose gold sovereign though. I luv the color and think it’s beautiful. I do enjoy when you show your stack. Take care and thankyou
Yeah it perhaps wouldn’t hurt to own one or two sovs but there are likely better choices on your side of the pond to actively stack
Pulled the trigger today on a memorial sovereign, looks awesome on RM website.
Cool. I think I’ve got one too. I have an order number but payment hasn’t been taken yet 🤞🏽
You have a great collection of gold coins. Maybe one of the best on youtube.
I’m flattered. Glad you like it Might be a full ish stack video out in a couple of weeks 👌🏽
From what I’ve seen of your collection, we share a lot of our tastes in gold coins. Even though I’m a Yank, I have a great affinity for the British bullion. Especially the QB series, the TB series and the Britannias. I just bought a quarter ounce Red Dragon of Wales, that I’ve been trying to get ahold of for many moons, and that made me super happy. I think I would like the AGEs more if the premiums weren’t so crazy. Being a bit of a history buff I also really like the LMU’s and the myriad of years and countries that are available. (Swiss Helvetia is my favorite of those or perhaps the Gallic Rooster) not to mention the great premiums. I’m still rather new at this, having only started stacking earlier this year, but I am so thrilled by my new hobby that I can see it being a major way of life and something that I can leave to my kids when my number is up. Anyway thanks for the great content and as always, forever endeavor my friend.
Fantastic. The LMU is a very deep rabbit hole to go down 😁 Loads of options for collecting there and some nice historic coins. I’m surprised the Age has such high premiums in gold. We’re lucky in the UK in the sense that it’s usual to be able to pick up gold at low premiums (3 to 5% without much searching usually) recently though some premiums have got a bit lively on some coins
@Sovereign Saurus as of right now, the quarter ounce gold eagle is hovering around 40% premium! I’m not kidding. It’s astounding and no one seems to have a decent explanation for it 😕
@Jeremiah Incredible. The 1/4 oz size do tend to have quite a premium in uk too but not that bad. Wow. 40% is nearly as bad as silver
1/4 Britannia’s in the UK £400 as of this morning, which I thought was a good price.
@Alexander the GR8 thats a great price. I purchased a ’23 quarter ounce gold Britannia online last week, here in the states, for $464 but they sold out really quickly.
My favourite coin currently is one I got in an exchange on the silver forum, a 1/4 ounce 35th anniversary proof Australian nugget coin, I got it for 1/4 an ounce of very small fractional coins, it’s absolutely beautiful
Cool, I quite like the nuggets. I’d be happy stacking them if I was based in Aussie
Is the Nugget the same as a Kangaroo? Forgive a Yank who isn’t up to speed…
@WD Stauter Yes exactly
still love your sov’s I just got another 1915 over here the other day its a lot slower for me as the dealers want tax so i only grab them when I can et them in the secondary market. But 5 more and I will have my 20 I wanted there a little popular over in Canada. Are those old time sovereign holders from the day? when people use to use them as everyday money. Those are something I never see over her. I love the old Britts as well I think they should do some different designs again would add some variety. Cheers
I’m not sure on the origin of the coin holders. I imagine they’re not proper vintage like the scales are. That’s a fantastic goal to hit 👌🏽 I like the George era sovs. Can’t beat the colour
Sheild sovereign ,s are the beat to buy and collect ,,they always goes up in price even if gold falls ,,just cheq coin year books and compare prices after a few yrs 👍 it’s better than money in bank 🤔
I’ve not seen many for sale for months (why I haven’t added any more shields) just saw 2 recently over £500 which looked to be decent condition but I think I’d sell mine if that’s the price rather than buy more
I enjoy full sovereigns, all mine are George and Dragon designs but just after a recent trip to the Uk, picked a shield half Vic 1866. She’s a beauty.Great video, thanks J.
Brilliant, glad you enjoyed the trip 👌🏽 Lovely coins those
Don’t know why but I don’t like off sizes, maybe it’s got to do with the mathematical side of my brain 😂
I’m with you mate. I have to ignore the weight of sovs and just think about the number of them 🤣
