Cheating a bit but this was most of my old stack, all sold and put into the house, started 2014 and sold most of it late 2017. Top picture is half Sovereigns, 1/10th oz's, 1/20th oz's and odds and sods. Second picture is sovereigns and a couple quarter ounce brits, then the last picture is 1oz coins, a couple of quintuples and a double sov. It bought most of a decent first house so I can't be too sad. The 1887 quintuple was a fake made from 22ct gold, now melted. I'll get a photo of the current stack at some point but its not half as good :P

Same again minus the shields. I was lucky when I bought, majority of it in 2015 and due to buying as near to spot as possible. Gold is very liquid and you can get spot or very near to it when selling, it doesn't matter if its British, Mexican, Canadian, whatever its all just gold and the dealers treat it as such. Atkinsons are good for the small stuff and half sovs, HGM for the rest. With silver I bought mostly kilo bars from the forum and coin bars from the EU at 16% premium delivered, closest to spot as I could find. I sold those on eBay because the dealers will not pay a good price, silver is more work, a bit like shield sovereigns. 

Second stack is the same idea but less scale, gold and silver bought close to spot with focus on British and the odd other coin close to spot to keep it interesting :)

several panda sets, uk lunar and kookaburra.

i have several rolls of 1 oz and half oz Aus Lunar.

started collecting in 2014. Went a bit mad. Lol

i intend to leave it to Grand kids.

but I buy and sell on Ebay, really for the fun of it.

i love getting a good deal and making a decent profit.

havent started on gold pieces yet, but having seen others stacks I'm tempted.
