Love the quarter oz, I like the sovereigns too because it’s low premium, history and the CGT & VAT free. If you need a bit of cash quickly for an unexpected payment the quarters and sovereigns are perfect as opposed to having to sell an oz of gold. Great video mate
@@FutureInvestmentsBullionsee ! With sovereign actually you get the most gold from your money under 500£ right now ,from premium perspective sovereign is better to buy and way more liquid
I have a soft spot for the Brittanias too although I live in the states. I have a few tenth oz but it's hard to enjoy the design like I do with the quarter oz. One day hopefully I'll get a half oz or a full oz.
If it were me in your shoes, I would get 2 x 1/2 oz in different designs rather than a full ounce. The half oz is more than adequate to show the designs I've listed in my comment. One coin on my bucket list is the Buffalo/Bison Indian Head, a truly noble example of Indigenous Native Culture. A great reminder that Carnal Custard got his just deserts, for publicising, against specific orders by President Grant if gold could be found on sacred Indian Black Hills territory.
Really enjoy your videos, I’m quite new to collecting gold and silver. My list this year is to fill a tube of 1/10oz Britannia, a couple of quarters and by the year end my first full ounce Britannia. Plus some silver Britannias and anything else. It’s very addictive.
Hi Dave! I’m really pleased you enjoy my videos. Wow. That sounds like you have an awesome plan. I am yet to fill a tube myself. I need to get myself a tube to fill. It would also be a good video to make. Thanks for watching 🎉
@@FutureInvestmentsBullion What I honestly think would be really cool would be a collab between you and 365. Maybe record yourselves on a zoom call or something were you discuss precious metal investments, and also your TH-cam journeys so far. Would just be super cool to see my 2 favourite TH-camrs together.
Die schönste 1/4 Unze von allen. Ich besaß auch die 1/10, aber die Schönheit kommt mit der 1/4 Unze voll zur Geltung. Nicht zu vergessen - die Unfälschbarkeit. Beste Sicherheitsmerkmale. Very, very nice "The Britannia"
1/10th or 1/4 rounds are best for personal commerce, lager bars for business and larger commerce. My favorite coins are Maples and Britannias! Thanks for the video!
Im working on filling a capsule tube of tent Oz's and a tube of quarter oz eagles and love them. Quarter Oz pieces are my sweet spot but once I finish those tunes off I'll be saving up for a full Oz eagle and a full Oz buffalo to have all the US gold in all their sizes, but can't wait to finish that so I can start getting any random l ower premium coins and bars like those Britannias and Perth mint bars. They are gorgeous. Great pieces youve added mate.
Wow! Your stack must be looking very nice now mate! Sounds like your smashing it. I look forward to seeing an updated stack video on your channel one day!!
@@FutureInvestmentsBullion thanks buddy. Im nowhere where id like to be since I've only been stacking since 2021 but I'm about half way to my silver base weight goal of 1000 Oz's. The crappy thing is being on a limited income but I'm pushing as hard as I can. Definitely making a lot of sacrifices so I can get there. I'll have my gold unboxings a few of them coming up though but I'm back at primarily stacking silver to get the base up to my goal as soon as possible and once Im There I'll be primarily stacking gold and. Id like to get up to 1000 Oz's of silver and 25 Oz's of gold but of course on a limited income that's going to take a while
Just like anything, you should never try to keep all of your eggs in one basket. What if gold goes up so high it's difficult to sell 1 oz gold? That's why you need small coins too. Another thing. Let's say you loose 2 gold coins and those 2 coins happen to have been 1 oz coins. Now lets say instead of them being 1 oz coins they were 1/4 oz coins. You'd have only lost 1/4 of the gold instead.
Do you just stick with the royal mint and I wanna buy a coin from there but I'm not sure if it just comes in the plastic casing, as I'd prefer the blister pack version
Hi George. The royal mint sell two versions. One just in a capsule and one in a card. So you can buy either or both. I buy from the Royal Mint and other companies.
Simple answer is NO. The premium is too high, but if you can't afford larger units they are better than nothing. At an even lower price consider 1/2 Sovereigns.
Quarter ounce gold is my current sweet spot. I am in the U.S. and we don’t have 1/4 ounce Britannia’s available here yet. Just the 1/10th and full ounce. I have several of the 1/10. Britannia’s are stunning coins. Stay blessed amigo.
Although I don’t have any 1/10.. I can really imagine how could a huge stack of them would be in a safe box! Might have to get a bulk load.. thanks for watching Glen! All the best! 🇬🇧 🇺🇸
I just purchased another 1/4 oz Greyhound queens beast yesterday paid £440 shipped, the previous 1/4 oz QB cost £460 that was the Yale, I paid £400 for a griffin in a leather presentation case 1 of 25 made 3 weeks ago that’s the cheapest 1/4 I have purchased this year. Last year I was buying 1/4 oz Britannia’s for £404 on average. Facebook gold groups are a great way to snag a bargain imo, just be careful and get references FB groups are also a good way of selling PMs. I just purchased a 2023 queen 1/10 Britannia carded for 180 shipped. Now I’m broke 😅 but happy to know I’ve got another 1/10th on the way. This is the only addiction that makes you smile and possibly wealthier in the coming years. Great video my friend some very interesting view points. 👍🏻
Wow! You’ve been doing some amazing purchases! Very nice indeed. Sounds like your precious metals stack is growing nicely. Thanks for the info regarding FB. I’m pleased you enjoyed the video 🔥
@@FutureInvestmentsBullion oh ye it’s growing indeed. It’s a long list and story. I started with gold 1 oz meter bars the cheapest, from that 1 g bars 2.5 bars 5g bars, pamp mostly then some $5 dollar gold American coins Indian head 21/2 dollars French ruster, then pandas 1/2s and 1oz then buffaloes, eagles, Australia snakes 1oz then back to 1. 20/th oz lunar The 1/2oz Britannia then 1oz Britannias + queen beast 1oz that got very expensive so now doing 1/4 brits and queen beasts. It’s took 12 + years and I also stack silver. It’s an addiction I admit. But I’m learning to let some silver go these days to trade swap sell for AU it’s been a ride. Oh I’m forgetting my very small fractional 1 2/5th oz 999 gold that so small I can nearly see them. I’ll send you a picture someday if your interested.
@@Silvestmentpms Wow! Thats amazing. You're clearly very experienced and know your figures. Yes, feel free to email me a picture. Sounds like an amazing stack!!
I look at the premiums as the amout it cost me to invest. Example spot is around 1500 and you pay 1650 for a z of gold that £150 for a z of gold to me . Asoon as the money is paid the wealth is transferred into metal. you can get the spot price back at anytime . You will loose a premium but £150 loss is better than spending £1600 on phone or cloths and getting nothing back at all . The quarts brits are perfect not to small and not too costly just right . the gold price is rising these coins are a good buy .
Wow! You put that in a really good way. I agree. You’ll Aways get the spot price back and more in the long term so all it’s really costing you in the premium as you say! Smart thinking. I like it!
Quarter ounce 999 gold coin from any mint is the way to go now, with so much currency in circulation. Fortunately the Royal Mint has produced over years, different Britannia and Queens Beast designs. As a bonus, there are well over 200 different very recognisable sovereigns of a similar size. My collection of 1/4oz britannias comprise of 2 x 4 different designs, however should bigger coins of a different design be desirable, the 1/2 oz charioteer 2009, Seated ladies looking both left and right, and 2010 portrait lady (looking to the right) are worth a bit extra should you be fortunate enough to find them available. If you do indeed have in your collection similar 1oz britannia designs from the first decade of 2000 when gold was less than half of what it is now, you must be feeling rather satisfied with yourselves. It should be noted that pre 2012, Britannias were minted in 22ct gold, but specify a full troy ounce. For example: 2001 Standing Britannia and Lion. 2005 Seated Britannia looking to the left 2007 Seated Britannia looking to the right 2008 Standing Britannia in Ocean wave 2009 Charioteer Britannia 2010 Portrait Britannia looking to the right. Combining these listed here, with the different standing Britannia designs, will spur you on to acquire as many sovereigns as you can get, just so you may never have to part with your Britannias. Its worth noting that Victoria shield back sovereigns also being 22ct gold, are equally stunning and as paper currency became more into use during George V reign, sovereigns can be acquired with very little wear with a wonderful rich yellow, blended with Silver (?) as against post 2000 blended with copper. All these attributes, being VAT and Capital Gains tax free and not a bank balance sheet and giving you comfort that you'll never be poor or destitute.
Good content on your videos. Wearing nice gloves will increase the sharpness, aesthetics, and presentability of your videos. Those gloves have a lot on lint balls and they look a bit shabby. Just trying to help you. Keep up the good work!
@@FutureInvestmentsBullion yeah I get what you mean I guess I gotta start working extra hours to get more but atm I just wanna stack but I do wanna buy a coin like that will it come in a blister pack though
@@georgevideos1849 Yes. If you order on in a blister card. It shows it in one in the picture. If not it will be a capsule one :) The ones in the card.. you can only normally get from The Royal Mint.

I like a quarter ounce. Full ounce is better. Love the Britannia’s
1/4 Ounce is amazing but there is something very special about a 1 ounce!
If it got damaged you should still be able to get the scrap value which I think at the time I write this is about £55 per gram.
