Today i bought a 2018 1/4  gold proof Britannia coin. I dont know if it that wise to buy a coin which has a premium of more than double what its worth in gold. However, i wanted it since long time and finally decided to buy it. I persuaded myself by looking at other things i buy and never think about their investment value. For example electronics, clothes, and other stuff we buy to use and enjoy. I am a designer and i do appreciate good looking things, so why not enjoy the coin for its design and also the precious metal it sits on!  I tried to find it somewhere cheaper than the royal mint but couldn't find. I do also like to buy directly from the mint even if i can safe £20 or so just because i know for sure that no one touched or opened it before selling. I thought id share my thoughts in here because I need some reassurance that i am not that crazy for buying something like that or maybe i am? 😅

Buy what you like is a great start.     Buying from the mint doesn’t guarantee a perfect coin, rheir quality control is shocking.      Did you remember TopCashback? Also @TheCoinConnection Normally Sells for a little less than the mint and up to now I’ve never heard of anyone getting a non perfect coin

[Guldmund]

Well, I dont know much about the market for Britania coins, so its hard for me to deside how good an investment it is. I collect Libertad, and here you can find high premiums aswell. If think one have to deside if a purcase is for investment or collecting. If you go for investment then strait bullion should be preferd. Premium on 100% should be with an collection prespective, it could turn out to be a god investment down the line, but that is often a hard call...

One good thing about buying from royal mint is that you can return for exchange or refund with ease.

Given the choice of Royal Mint or Coin Connection, I'd go with The Coin Connection. I have always found their service superb.

I say this as a customer with no other interest.
