Maplegram

Just spotted this new product on coininvestdirect.

 

Premium a little steep at the moment but I like the look of it -

 

25 X 1g mini gold maples

Interesting

I've seen MiniRoo (mini gold kangaroos) and miniKooks at 0.5g before but this is different. It's an interesting idea, but I don't think I could go for gold in single grams.

Still, I like the idea though.

Nice idea but I will stick to my sovereigns.

Half sovereigns were disappointing when I bought them. These would be even worse. Attractive packaging but I really don't understand who they are aimed at: quite expensive for a gift, poor value as an investment.

I love my half sovs, but I must admit my little 1/10th kruggerand was a bit of a shock. it's teeny

[silversword]

I'm often tempted by the 1/10th coins, then I remember they are smaller than half sovs... Its full sovs or bigger for me from now on.

Yes I bought a 1/10 AGE in the USA in August, only bought it because I was out there, will I collect the 1/10 ounce gold coins, probably not they are just too small.

Interesting. I think they are aimed at the 'preper', the SHTF stacker who wants tradeable quantities in case the brown stuff really does start flying. They do fit that description well, but I would rather have the valcambi. They are much sexier, and much less expensive. You can get a valcambi 50 X 1g for about $1220, much better than $1000 for 25g

A gimmick for non-stackers and novices entering the gold portals.

 

Comments on half sovereigns - they rank as one of my favourite bullion collectables.

Extremely popular and easily traded.

Terrific buy at 3% over spot.

Just love the Victorian Shields - they are appreciating nicely.

When you can buy a half sovereign for the same price as a full ounce per gram then I would prefer a bunch of half sovs rather than a boring Krugerrand any day.

Okay the £100 Britannia, Roo and other stunning coins are pretty to look at but with bullion it is the weight that sets the price most of the time.
