  1. I can't see how he would as it was his ambition to take over and become King. He's not going to give it up anytime soon. Just in case he changes his mind, put me down for 5 Britannias @theman73 😁 cheers

    https://www.sharpspixley.com/buy-bullion/buy-gold/buy-coins Sharps Pixley in St. James's Street is one place where you can walk in & buy bullion but only open Monday to Friday.
  3. I haven't sold any gold in the 10 years I've been buying. Waiting for retirement to offload as and when.
  4. You ever been to a football match in the 80's? Flying coins were commonplace.
  5. I don't think he's got plans to kick the bucket for a while yet. 15 years then he retires.
  6. Compared to QE2, every reign regardless who is on the throne will be short.
  7. He'll be on the road to recovery soon enough as he's got the best medical team around him. I reckon he'll be away from public duties for a short while.
  8. Better than bbp but I guess come Monday morning it will be adjusted higher.
  9. Costco at Wembley are usually not that good with their bullion pricing but I noticed this sovereign today at this price.
  10. Went into my local bullion dealers shop in town for a half sovereign. Picked this 1909. Had a look through his scrap coins bag and picked out a couple of cheap foreign coins, not sure what they are or where from. He threw in the Dutch 2 1/2 Guliders coin for free.
  11. I can't remember how it came to be honest. Ones like this usually come in a carded collection where you add the next coin in the series. I've ordered a few in the past of previous series but never followed up with them.
  12. I haven't tried bartering with silver but I'm sure the same mechanic would be interested in doing a deal at some point.
  13. A few years back I bartered a 1/4 proof 2012 sovereign to get my car fixed. Car since gone but the coin still with mechanic now, plus price has since risen. Fair exchange back then and he's done well out of it. Win/win for both of us.
  14. I got one of these last July and I haven't had any marketing in the post since. I guess I'm just lucky.
  15. I know what you mean. Jehovah's witnesses can be a bit much at times 😁
  16. Just like Guinness, I'm not bitter
  17. Surprised it hasn't been shut down like other threads recently.
  18. Was off to Costco yesterday to buy a sovereign until I received a message from a work colleague about buying one of his sovereigns. He knew I was on the lookout for one. Glad I got this instead.
  19. I'd buy half sovereigns so if the gold price went pretty high there'd be more people who could afford halves than full sovereigns when it comes to selling.
