Hi there! I’m Josh and I create videos on Gold and Silver Bullion.
On this channel I aim to explore all topics with buying Gold and Silver Bullion.
I upload videos regularly including Giveaways, Live Streams, Unboxings, Reviews, Coin Hunts, Bullion Collections and so much more!
Ive started this channel because when I started buying Bullion there were hardly any channels within the UK covering Gold and Silver Bullion. I will share my journey with you, documenting every aspect of this journey including my wins and failures.
Follow this channel and I’ll give you my humble and honest opinions on the journey of stacking precious metals, collecting coins and everything in-between.
Interesting stuff, l won't lie. l aim for dealers and chards looks good, Atkinson l got on with well. I'm pretty anti-social, so reputable sellers are always good :)
@@welshblade5451 check out cobra stackers auctions every Friday mate on RU-vid, he’s a great guy I get most of my things from him. Dealers wise check out Tavex, Atkinsons, silver trader, chards to name a few. Thank you for the kind feedback
Silver ’investing’ IMO is a high risk low reward proposition……. it will be the devil’s own job to even get your money back on the vast majority of collectible pieces. But, buy what you like and importantly like what you buy. Good video - thank you!
I like the Korean Mint products and have quite a few of them. And some other collectable pieces, but as you wisely pointed out, they are just silver and I’m under no illusion they are worth any more than spot. But the bottom line is it’s our money, we earned it and we can spend it any way we want to.
One thing that puts me off about proof coins is toning. If you have a proof coin and it tones or milk spots, you can lose a lot of premium. So I am happy to stick with bullion. Now, gold proof coins, on the other hand, make sense to me.
They are very nice but more for collectors im a stacker of just gold and silver with some of the collector pieces i could get 3 or 4 ounces of bullion but good luck to those people who collect great video sir from English Dave 😃
I reckon that it is worth buying whatever form of silver best maintains its market value and premium. From my observations, silver is frequently sold below spot value unlike its counterpart gold. Splendid video as always, Josh.
Don't think you mentioned the various smaller Britannia coins that need to be considered. The Britannias actually look like gold as well, which is a bonus.
Sorry you’re having to pay 20% VAT. Now I don’t feel so bad about my state charging 6%. At 20% I’d be looking for a workaround, lol. BTW, while Morgan’s are very popular here, the most popular is the Silver Eagle. Also very popular is 90% silver coins, aka “Junk” silver. Very easy to move 90% silver coins here in the U.S.

I love silver but I have to say we are really ripped off in the UK. I have an old receipt from the Royal Mint from Oct 2005 in which TWO bullion Britannia's were bought, inc postage and vat that cost £29.40 so £14.70 for an oz of physical silver back then, the spot price was about £4.88, so basically back then you paid just over three times the spot price to physically own silver. The FTSE 100 was 5160 in 2005 and is about 8204 now so that hasn't doubled, and an average home was 156k in 2005 and is about 280k today so hasn't doubled, but you can definitely say you have doubled your money if you bought physical silver despite the ridiculous premiums back then, of course I'm talking about what you'd expect to get on ebay not the spot price.
Firstly the Royal Mint is more expensive than some other bullion dealers. Yes milk spots can be a put off or an annoyance if you are a collector of different coinage but bear in mind that milk spots on a bullion coin will not alter it's sell value as that is based on weight of silver or gold at or near spot price and not it's condition. ie the melt value. Numismatic coins have a higher value at the moment but when the global financial meltdown occurs shortly then the value will revert to spot price value because the spot prices of both silver and gold will rise so dramatically as to outstrip any perceived numismatic collectors' value in most cases. Nothing wrong with having a small collection of coinage for your own pleasure as you would a stamp collection but personally I collect bullion to cash in on the imminent explosion in the price of gold and silver. Even at the record highs at the present it will seem like a bargain in the near future. Check out Liberty and Finance.com
Thank you for the video. I think it's worth buying silver here in the UK. The VAT and premiums are something I'm used to now. And it no longer bothers me.
