Pipers

the higher it goes the faster it will come down.

Gold price has doubled in 5 years. Up 42% in this last year.
Hold tight on the way back down soon it will be brutal but won't last.

Is it sensible if I wanted to lock in the price then to buy ETF then when premiums on physical falls sell and buy a coin? 

I would just like to say about 1Toz platinum coins,  The prices are more expensive now to buy a coin than it was before the price dip. 

The only issue I see with Platinum in particular though is how undervalued it is. It was already very undervalued before the recent dip, in my humble opinion. Now it just looks ridiculously cheap, a fantastic investment opportunity. Not often you get an opportunity to make big short term gains with PM, I believe this is one!
We just have to hope prices haven’t gone up significantly before mints begin to catch up with production. 

Buying Numismatic coins from The Silver forum, Good for you.  I would agree if you like this type of coin then on here and Auctions are the places to go. 
Wise words
In the past yeah definatly. But as you and a few other i know who's posts not to even bother looking at. 
Yes this is true. 
My point was why would anyone buy at a higher price?  I still cannot understand.  Apart from to say the said people have reached their £10,000 limit from the dealers.  Also i would like to say out the following.  
I would also like to say every now and again a member sells a (substantial) part of there stack I have seen it when the seller has been offering fantastic prices and has no takers. 

How can you make such a definite statement. 
you joined the forum since things got hectic (2 weeks ago) Since prices have started to spike. 
 
i am a new member too. When I joined you could easily find loads of stuff at spot (seldom under spot but you shure have to be extremly quick). Since 3 weeks things got a bit more complicated as supply and demand are shifting. 
 
IMHO you should always think twice before making definite statements. 
 
sorry but from my point of view, no promotional thing about the fact that the forum is the best place to buy. 

Has anyone noticed what is going on on the forum sales section!  New buyers are buying up nearly all the Gold and they will pay big premiums even bigger than Chards prices eg bullion Gold.  I for one question why someone would not seek out the cheapest source available, unless they have bought there yearly allocation from the Dealers that are still open. 
As some  of you know i am a keen watcher of prices, i use price fluctuation prediction to buy my PMs which i stand by with my own money which i lose if i make bad decisions.   I personally think Gold will increase in price but will pull back when traders need cash.  This will be at the same time the mints come back into full production.

Lots of companies Quote before VAT.  I do not see the problem.

Don't you start! 
We have been having discussions about this for some time now. 
My view is that it means exactly what it sounds like. 
"Mint" would mean “in mint condition” (but don't forget that can be highly variable), so "minty" should logically mean something slightly different. 
It implies a degree of approximation, which might vary depending on context, so a roll of Edward VII "minty" sovereigns might not be quite as good as a roll of George V or Elizabeth II. 
As it happens, I think all our 1932 10 guilders would easily qualify for an MS grade on the Sheldon scale, rather than AU. 
On that note, "MS" stands for "Mint State", and MS grades go from MS60 to MS70. 
AU, standing for "Almost Uncirculated", goes from AU50 to AU59. 
My colleague, Ian, thinks "minty" is too inexact to use, but I disagree, and consider that its very inexactitude makes it a perfect word, and very concise. 
A few years ago, a well-known Yorkshire dealer offered me some "minty" sovereigns, and I believe that the two of us had a perfect understanding of what that meant, which is great communication. 
Having cited one anecdote, more years ago, a well-respected Italian dealer offered us a quantity of older sovereigns which he described as "F.D.C.", when they arrived, they ranged from good VF to about EF, but certainly not F.D.C., which has a very exact meaning, so this was poor communication from him. (We still trade together). 
To replace the word "minty", we would have to say something like "quite close to mint condition, give or take, and allowing for age, etc." 
BTW, the Royal Mint have registered "Minty" as a trade mark, but they have no objection to us using the word when describing coins.

SMASH DOWN

Here is my small and humble stack thus far (31ozt). I only started a few months ago. My stack is a mix of generic bullion bars, generic fractional rounds, junk silver and a hint of poured silver.
