Just bought my most expensive Bullion Sovereign ever at £459.12

I remember when I bought a Queen Vic jubilee head sovereign for £250 thinking that was expensive a few years back. You end up wishing for those days again.

Yeah, I'd stop looking tbh. I nicked it with the barbecue out the back and a very nice leather gimp suit.

You raided the house 3 doors down from me.

I've lost this 1/10 oz gold proof in my house. Spent ages looking for it and gave up in the end. It might turn up one day.

are they selling silver at costco now? what was the price?

They've been selling kilo silver bars for a while now. I never looked at the price today but I'll have a look next time. Just noticed I did take a picture of the bars. £983.98 with vat.

£482.99 for a sovereign today!

At least this one ain't broke

Platinum is too risky in my opinion. 

80-82oz of silver or 1oz gold and some beers with your leftovers.

Where's your sense of adventure?😄

I agree, don't get me wrong. But if the questions is - what PM to spend £2000 on now - would it be platinum?

For £60 more you can buy 2 oz of platinum qb coins or for £100 less one gold 1oz Britannia. It's always up to the individual.

Premiums and vat though 🥲

Value of it all goes up in the end. Just pretend it's gold😁👍

It is now! 

You could always go for platinum that's roughly now at February 2016 gold price 😁

Is there going to be a no fly zone imposed in the middle east? Only asking because I've got tickets for the Tyson Fury fight in Riyadh next month.

I never knew Costa sold gold . Everyone is getting in on the act now.  Sovereigns and coffee great combination.  

They've been selling gold and silver for around 3-4 years in the UK now. The way the prices are going I'd expect them to be selling half sovereigns soon.

No doubt the people who may be buying these not only have the money, but probably not really sure where else to buy stuff that is probably cheaper😮🤔

Their prices are hit & miss at times as they're usually the highest price then other days much less than most places but never the cheapest.

Interesting vid from China 

"As gold prices surged, the disappearance of several affiliated stores under China National Gold Group Corporation (also known as China Gold) and Shandong Gold Group in Beijing have led to a staggering loss of 400 million yuan worth of gold for customers, sparking widespread shock and panic across various sectors. "

400 million yuan is around £43.8million GBP !

 

I bet there was a lot of that being said.

Where the f**** is our gold??

Regarding this topic, jeezus Michael..put your glasses on.

I just did. Going blind in my old age. Thought he only joined the forum to sell these 1 gram bars so I assumed he's leaving.

On that note I have to say bye bye for good, regarding this topic. All the best  

So you're leaving the forum?

Pamp made sovereigns with the Indian mint mark, they're not the Royal Mint. Although they were made under licence, still not Royal Mint products.

Was there any actual claim The Oxford Mint have claimed they are connected to the original business or were they just pointing out the history of the past Mint?

Ah but have they been making them since 1700s ?

The Belgians or my local bakery?🤣
