    It's been an absolute age since I've posted in this thread.  I'm no longer adding weight to my collection and have recently sold off bits which I'm no longer continuing with in order to swap out for the remaining QB 1 and 1/4 oz Golds.  2 more 1oz and 3 1/4 oz to go to complete the collection which I should  finish at the end of the year when they release The White Greyhound of Richmond. 
    Ordered the Yale and White Lion from Chards on the 17th March.  I completely forgot about the Yale so I was scrambling to find one quick since the White Horse was being released which meant minting for the Yale would be stopping and premiums going up.  Atkinsons had already increased the Yale premium and some places were already out of stock.  Managed to get in at just over £1200 spot just as demand and spot was rising and just before the lockdown.  Ended up with a bit of a wait and were delivered today.  Unfortunately the Queen on the Yale has been attacked by her Corgis.

    I don't know about others but the sole reason I get gold and silver is because I want retirement money that the government don't know I have. My father got made redundant at work for "business reasons" but we knew it was because he had Chrones disease and it was taking a turn for the worse, when he was laid off he went to get benefits and was told "yea, not until you spend all that money you earned and saved up" which was disgusting when you have a guy who worked 30 years paying taxes. I decided thatif I lose my job or something alike I don't want them saying "tough luck, spend your savings now"

    Vintage silver bars have outgrown the coin case so I sourced an old strong box for storage duties.
    Good time for a photo update. 😉

    Recently come back from India and emptied a safety deposit box in India while I was there (no longer required). Managed to bring back into UK fair amount of gold without being questioned by customs. Visited Saint James in Manchester today to deposit some items and took opportunity photograph the family entire gold stack:
    A lot gold held in the form of Indian jewellery
    I have no idea how many oz gold is in jewellery form and 18 to 22 carat gold with some items having real diamonds. Best part of the gold stack Queens Beast bullion coins.

    Six months stacking fortunate picked up most of the stack when spot prices much lower. Most of the jewellery purchased by my late dad when gold spot prices $250 oz.

    StackinJack reacted to KevinFlynn in This is about me   
    Greetings everyone,
    my name is Sebastian, I am from Germany and I am a casual stacker...
    I am in my mid 40s, an IT professional living in the middle of nowhere, with a wonderful fiancee living far far away.
    I first got interested in gold and silver investing around 2011, when I had regained some buying power after a long phase of bad luck which had cost me my life savings. Before that, my investment horizon had not gone beyond Sparbücher (savings accounts) and Bausparverträge (guaranteed mortgage savings accounts), though I vaguely remember signing for Infineon shares back then.
    After reviewing the standard investment offers of my bank I dove deeper into how to build a portfolio. Within the depths of the internet I came across a mixture of gold and silver investors, preppers, conspiracy theorists and alternate investors. I learned about the history of money, the modern post gold standard financial system and globalization, I read my way through a mixed library on system criticism and precious metal investing. I sorted all this through to fit my personal requirements and experiences and in the end decided to build the cornerstone of my portfolio out of gold. It would have been real estate, but my job takes me to different locations every couple of years.
    I decided on Wiener Philharmoniker as my standard investment coin, but soon my natural playfullness took over and I found myself amidst a mix of silver Pandas, Lunars, and everything that was hot at the time that I could get my hand on. I also developed a liking towards older trade coins, 20 Mark Deutsches Kaiserreich and 20 Franken Schweizer Vreneli specifically. I do like to touch my gold, and the latter are especially suited for that.
    Time flies and I liquidated most of my stack (a matter of mislead loyality and personal idiocy). I was able to rebuild around 2015, and am now ready to put a monthly stream of money towards precious metals again. What stayed with me are my trade coins, a stack part which I already reinforced. My favourite coin is the Vreneli (20 Franken) due to it's design (I am in love), it's size, affordability and easyness of trade. I am just deciding what products to split my precious metals investment sum on. I am having the feeling that the precious metal landscape has changed since 2011, that all the more special items have become very mainstream. But that may just be my personal perception.
    I am viewing gold as the mainstay of the security part of my portfolio. As far as I see it, Gold was, is and will always be the classic store for wealth. I of course have silver, but I list that within the speculative part of my portfolio (tagged preserving and speculative, to be precise). I may invest into some platinum as another speculative metal, given the current prices. Other than that I am trying to keep my portfolio balanced, containing enough liquid assets and different risk level stocks (fonds) invested in different parts of the world.
    So this is it about me, my past experiences, what I learned and what I am doing at the moment, where precious metals are concerned...
    Thanks for your time
