Wow, silver sovs? Didn't know they existed, now I want one!!!

They’re not actually sovs.  They are £20 coins with George & dragon on the reverse.  They are just over 15 grams of 999 silver and come with a bit of a premium.  You can pick them up for around £20, a bit less on eBay sometimes.

Allright, in the market for one. Not for the silver weight, but for the coin as a collectible! Thanks for the info.

They marketed them as "£20 for £20". I got them as gifts a while back.

[Goldhooked]

There are the £100 coins too.  Both the £20 and £100 coins are ‘legal tender’ but shops and banks won’t accept them.  One guy got caught out trying to earn a load of ‘free’ credit card points....

Very nice set there! Your 2005 looks a bit proofy?

Bank of England has Venezula's gold but unfortunately they cannot return the gold because they have forgotten which pile it is in........

 

The real problem is that they havent forgotten which pile its in, its that everyone elses gold is also the same pile.

I bet most of the stacks in this thread are out of date now. Stacks change all the time, we could just start again 🙂

Just look back at the photos in this thread when I posted my stack photos I had collected 500 oz Silver and 3oz Gold. With lower spot prices my stack now stands at 1282 oz Silver 60 oz Gold. On annual at the end of this week and will pick up some nice premium silver pieces in India and most likely add to the stack in January 2019. I will post full stack photos in the new year. On target hit my goal 2,000 oz silver and 100 oz gold by end of 2020.
