    From a stacking point then buying a coin that is my birth date as i paid over premium however it would be one of the last ones to be disposed of. It was not though bought solely for investment purposes.
    Not stacking enough as i never thought that Gold would rise in price as quickly as it has.

    • @dleetr
      @dleetr 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Ive yet to get a birthdate coin, but it's going to happen. Probably a Krug, which incurs tax here, so not exactly best value. There's other stuff in the stack id sell last though, than some old Krugerrand. heh.

    I just bought some silver. That's my biggest mistake from an investing point of view. But I really like the coins, 2023 germania mint golden eagle's. It wasn't about hoping to make a profit on them, I had an itch to scrach 😅 Thats my first ever silver. Now I want some of the 2024 golden eagle's. I should really have bought some more sovereigns instead. At least I like the coins enough that I won't want to sell them any time soon.

    Kind of sucks if a dealer wont pay more for a shield, they certainly charge more for them! My mistake was with my first sovereign, ordering from bullionbypost and not shopping around, could have saved some money, premium was high and not a good condition sovereign. Actually my biggest mistake was not starting to stack 20 years ago.

      Another great video and point of view, personally I have stacked since 2021 regularly 1oz gold britannia and best value sovereigns and if I do say so my stack is looking very nice, and a healthy cost average profit😊..Love your videos, you put me onto sovereigns years ago, so glad I found your channel..👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

      I've always had lovely coins from BBP. Also their service is the best I've had consistently even during the lockdowns so don't mind paying a few quid more there but I've not sold to them for a few years.
      Like you say with shields most dealers don't skimp on their margins often 🤣

      @@SovereignSaurus I haven't bought a best value sovereign from bullion by post, so maybe the quality is really good, the george v I got from them was heavily marked which was disappointing. Price wise currently their best value is £460, versus $444 and £438 from Atkinsons and ATS respectively. Doesn't make sense to me, but maybe I'm missing something

    Hi mate I did leave a message on one of your older videos so I thought I would leave one here to.
    Would like your help with something (I’m new to gold stacking)
    With my budget I’m looking at 1/4oz coins so Sovereigns, I’m looking at newer sovereigns, Currently the 1/4oz Britannia premium is around the 8-9% mark so that’s why I’m going with sovereigns, can I ask, what would you say is currently a good premium for sovereigns? I was thinking around 3-5% but I wanted to get your input.
    Thank you, Steve

    Only mistake I can think of is not buying a bunch of gold when it hit $1630 last (maybe for the last time LOL). That still stings.

    • @SovereignSaurus
      @SovereignSaurus  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Buying bars is a mistake for a stack, it's fine for a collection.

    • @SovereignSaurus
      @SovereignSaurus  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      If you get a good rate then it would probably be a good trade into CGT free sovs.
      Consider the fine gold content you'll end up with though... For eg 190g is almost 26 full sovs worth of gold...
      I wouldn't swap it for 20 sovs as it's too low and to me doesn't seem worth losing the gold content but you might be able to swing a deal for part of them or all with cash to balance it

    I just started by my biggest mistake was buying a 1/10 oz platinum Britannia. The premium was high but the coin was calling my name. I have since traded it for something better but my love for britannia's is never ending. Britannia's in my opinion are the most beautiful constitutional silver out there right now
