Starting a new series

[Mark10110]

Hi gals and fellas,

 

I think i want to buy a series but unsure which ones are good to jump on, wheres best to buy (i am in the UK) and if there is a new series starting anytime soon?

 

Anyone got any pointers on this subject?

Hi, can you mention any other series you are collecting so far, so we can get an idea ?

None, I just have 12 Britannia 2 maples 2017, 2 koalas 2017, 1 somalia elephant 2017, 1 nue owl 2017. 

1 5oz bar

2 100g bars

I just stack but while doing it I figures I already have 1 foot in the door I may aswell start a collection from this year and flip them in like 10 years maybe.

 

I was looking at pandas, I won't go back years collecting just collect from today moving forwards on a series

I have started about 8 months myself and still deciding my directions. One definite thing is gilded coins (as you may have guessed already!). 

I would go for a series with changing design and not very high premiums. Either ongoing (Pandas, Kookaburras, Koalas etc.) or finite (Lunars, Queen's Beasts).  You will also have to decide how long back you would want to backdate it, as some of them are almost 30 years running.

Some limited, high relief, 1 or 2 oz series are also very interesting, if you don't mind the higher premiums.

Yea I am thinking both Koalas and Pandas, 2 maybe buy 2 of each every year for a good few years, sell in like 10

It's also a good idea to go through the photo threads, some really impressive stuff there. I have already published my Kookaburra collection, my Koalas will follow when I get some more in.
