What was your best precious metal investment over the past 2 years?

[Pampfan]

Just curious as to what others have found to be their best precious metal investment over the past two years - bars or coins, etc.

My best bar investment is by far my pickup of a 1 ounce pamp fortuna rhodium bar - which I purchased for $900 in 2016. 

My best coin investment was the 2015 1 ounce platinum eagle which I purchased from the us mint directly - got it graded by pcgs - and was able to flip it for a $1,000 profit.

my biggest losses are just all my billion holdings currently - as precious metals are taking a beating to pound town as of late. 

We will see what the future holds

The 1 oz gold queens beast bullion have done well in terms of collect ability over a short time which I find surprising. Its all paper gains here for now though. 

Biggest loss I am holding is 1 oz platinum maple, got a long way to go to recover that loss. (Paper loss. )

2 years is not a long time frame for PM's.

I've no idea, I have what I think have been bargain pick ups but since I've never sold them I can't say if this is actually the case.

My friend - that is far too kind - I am sure there have been better purchases you have made!

I'm looking for a lady who has at least a 50oz solid gold heart, probably why I am still eligibly single lol.

5 years 5oz, fits perfectly

On the other hand it's not about size or value, it's the sign that matters

Equally good is the other heart you made for my little one, she really likes to play around with it

Palladium Eagle maybe? Although paper gain only.

[mr1030]

2017 Kilo silver Libertad and 1 oz gold QB Griffin have probably had the best gains.  @FoolzGold I wish I had picked up a Palladium Eagle when they first were first available.  I intended to get one but I wasn't paying attention and they sold out before I could.

A rare 100g JM poured bar. Bought on eBay for £70, sold the following month on eBay to somebody in the US for £500.

 

[StackerCollector]

Bought 700 Mercury and Roosevelt Dimes as well as 100 other constitutional silver coins at around spot. Which is pretty hard to do in Europe. Silver back to 2011 levels and I'll 4-5x my investment. Patience...

not at all sure what mine is, or would be as I have yet to sell any of my Pm, be it coins, bars, to realise any profit,  might find out in three years time when I plan to retire and liquidate some , but I can see things like the 2005 proofs I own have increased in value , may be the best is the 11 coin 1887 set, which stands me at £0 but  that's because in inherited that so may not count, i think the next step i must take is getting into my first grading to maximize some of the values .

My best investment over the last 12 months is buying a 2017 Ares Greek God of War 2oz silver coin for NZ$325.

Ebay sellers now asking anywhere from NZ3200 to NZ4000each.

I also bought the 2018 Poseidon 2oz coin for NZ$420 this year.

They are being listed on Ebay from about NZ$1600.

I think I may buy two of next years coins and use one to pay for the first.

My Best bar/coin investment was actually getting started in PM's mid 2017. I would also count signing up to TSF as a premium member as a good investment. 
Worst investment is buying overpriced silver with VAT on top from an online bullion dealer (rookie mistake)

Still early days for me, hoping to be a seasoned stacker in the long term.
