The 5gram Britannia is a stunner... that is an awesome piece and I bought one myself. Even the card it comes in is very tasteful and nice. The 5gram size is very nice size too. Not too small or big. And the silver Luna & Lion bar also is a winner. I think with items like that you'd have an easier time moving them if the time came. Because they veer into the realm of art. We're no longer just buying bullion but something that has real aesthetic appeal, and people will seek out and pay more for that.

Good video. I find the Royal Mint a relative bargain. Just ordered a 2022 gold Sovereign and it was about ~$40 over spot and free shipping across the pond. Right now, ASE are ~$13 premium and a 1/4 oz AGE is a deal at $70-75 over spot. I love the Platinum Jubilee design and I’ll probably get a double sov and some of the other years. We can buy gold Britannia’s (new design is absolutely stunning) at about the same as offered by the mint, maybe a bit less on sale. Everything is relative, but so far I’m impressed with them.

Would love to see another unboxing video soon. It might be nice including reasons why you picked the design of the bar/coin also :)

I order coins regularly and a little bullion on occasion I find the costs ok and in the case of bullion very fair it really is a personal choice as the prices are shown you make up your own mind there is no rip off in my viewpoint

You answered my question. Thank you! 😊

Also with bullion it can be kept at the mint and resold back to them

In a nutshell...YES.

I just started this year. I bought a PAMP and Royal Mint 5g 24k each. It feels good knowing that I have a physical currency that is stable and only going up in value.

Royal mint is honestly trusted and decent

The question is are you a collector or an investor? Buying all the new issues is hard to keep up with and may not make you any money. Personally I would only buy cast bars, 1 kilo silver cast bars and 1 ounce gold cast bars as minimum weights.

small pieces are meant to be stored away for decades, no such thing as flipping gold,

problem is if you look at Atkinson's Chards the same coin\bars are normally cheaper than the mint but also have to remember gold bars even Britannia bars are not CGT free where coins are

Another great video also 🙏

Great video - #55 like 👍🏻

Great video brother 😎

Two years later......the answer to this is quite simply...YES!

I live in USA and I have never bought from the RM directly. I do buy RM products from US retailers. I've wondered if it would be cheaper to buy directly but I always assume the shipping would bite me. I also wonder if the package would survive all the hands touching it before it gets here. In US, free shipping is usually at $200 purchase level. So I tend to buy $200 at a time. Of course, if I buy 1/4 gold or 10 oz silver, the purchase price will be more. I always wondered how the beautiful 1 oz silver Brittannias can be among the cheapest coins in the US. Are they dirt cheap in the UK?

Another idea for you is Coins vs bars? 1oz silver coins vs 1oz silver bars and vice versa for gold :)

I rarely buy direct from the royal mint, it’s so much more expensive than dealers.

Excellent video, just wondering isnt investing in coins ( ex britannia-2023-1-oz-gold-bullion-coin-in-blister ) is better option to save CGT for UK residents ? As you mentioned you are investing it for long term ? Please let me know, if I am missing sonething.

As this video is 2 years old, have you made any profit yet on your investment?

Yes, how can you even ask the question the answers in the "Royal"

What do you mean by premium? Also would the gold lose value when you sell it if you have touched it with your fingers? because i would love to hold a gold bullion to feel what it feels like. if i buy gold it will be when i have the money to buy a 1oz gold coin or bullion. Will i make money in the future? Thanks.

For investment there is no reason to pay the premium from RM. A good bullion dealer will always give you a better deal and as long as you use a well established company there is little to no risk at all. Buy cast bars in reasonable liquidate-able weights - just save up until you can afford them. No point investing in small bars or small coins as you'll have to wait a very long time to get any yield. If you're a collector then buy what appeals to you but don't expect to get better prices when you come to sell them. Gold is gold is gold and gold dealers will only look at the amount of actual gold and will ignore that fact that it's a nice looking coin or that it has a nice design on it.

I can only aford the small amount

Yes cheq the prices ,there premium ,s are out of control 🥴

The RM are very expensive compared to Atkinsons bullion in Birmingham I purchase Britannia’s from Atkinson and they are a lot cheaper than RM Thanks for you videos and unboxing shows

Agree with all you say. Royal mint is sound of you live in uk. When you purchase you know it is legal and the real thing. You might buy cheaper elsewhere but risk being ripped off. Royal mint bullion coins are good. I think proof coins in the short term not such a good investment. You can’t go wrong with gold sovereigns or gold or silver Britannia’s. Your good bars from royal mint look good. I think you could do well to have a few silver bullion coins as well as those 007 or Una bars Buying from Canadian mint I think would be costly from you. Austrian mint though sounds more economic. Good presentation of bars.

What do you mean by “premium”? Sorry, I wanted to learn more about bullion but I don’t know where to start.

They all are from mint to e bay to private especially coin shop ! The premiums are high for silver , I have been buying gold ! And deals in both ! The Royal mint is good in gold but silver contact marks scratches ! When I buy ! I like pristine gold and silver pieces ! 35yrs buying ! Now from ABC They buy back ! Their metal is spotless no marks and they buy from Royal mint to . But they get no dings bangs and scratches across face of queen !

What is the difference between buying a Royal Mint Gold bar (Britannia) from a dealer other than The Royal Mint itself. Is there a difference in quality or future price? I noticed the price of 'The Royal Mint Britannia Gold bar' is way cheaper at Atkinson Bullion than on the Royal Mint itself. Please advise

Does it actually dawn on you that not everyone thinks in profit or value??

I would like to see an unboxing video of gold bars or coins

In a general sense all mints are a rip off, especially the “limited edition” stuff.

Good vid . Thanks mate.

Yes. Obviously. You can literally get everything cheaper from their retail partners. 😅
