  1. Hi, Fairly new to this game but looking for a little advice... I have been offered the oppertunity to purchase an Oversizes Crown in regards to the "Royal Wedding" from the London Mint Office. The stats are: Mintage limited to 999 Individually Numbered Obverse: Portrait HM Queen Elizabeth II Reverse: Coinjoined portrait HRH Prince William and Catherine Middleton Approved by Buckingham Palace Weight os 5 ounces Diameter over 65mm Quality - Proof Finish - Layerd with pure 24 carat Gold Basically, first look into this I admit it did sound tempting until the word 'layerd' cropped up... Some people have advised that the oppertunity for this as an investment are quite good, whilst others advise the coin will be unlikely to further any future growth.. I have only recently started purchasing American Silver Eagles and Canadian Maple Coins as away of investment for future but not yet touched upon gold as such but I am aware that 1oz of pure gold costs a bit more than this coin itself... So to yourselfs, and your knowldge and experience, what do you think? Thank you.
  2. lol, with those valuations I would be happy lol.... hence the reason for the post lol... anyways, cost to me the now anyways, £200 now... Yeah I agree with what most have said and yeah silver just now with the quite high prices may not always be the best at the moment, however, managed to get some in at a little lower rates before so not all bad... long term anyway and just a top up on top of some shares I bought a few years ago as well.... anyways, thanks for the replies.
  3. Yeah it was the layerd aspect that kinda threw me off to be fair.. yeh its 5oz but no troy oz
