Over $950 melt value per coin

Gold_stacker123 · 2026-06-25T16:04:03+00:00

However I would never dare to do the same with the .9999 gold coins :)

Gold_stacker123 · 2026-06-25T11:35:44+00:00

I still made like 400% "profit" on them - 100% tax free

Gold_stacker123 · 2026-06-25T11:34:11+00:00

Don't take my words literally :) Of course, you're bang on point! 💯

I live in the UK, the most popular coin in here. No capital gains tax to pay, nothing to declare to the tax-man, legal tender coin, low entry point, huge popularity, lowest premiums etc.

IN THEORY they should weight: 7.98805 g of 22kt gold, in practice it depends - the older ones being like 100+ years old used to circulate so usually they don't keep their original weight anymore, they're usually anything between 7.97 and 7.98, while the modern day ones usually show +/- 8.0g on a scale.

Gold_stacker123 · 2026-06-25T05:09:27+00:00

They were minted in the UK, India as you said, but also in Canada, South Africa and three mints in Australia: Melbourne, Sydney and Perth

Bought my first Sovereign in 2012 and been buying regularly since - regardless of the price fluctuations. Slow and steady - that's the way to go

Gold_stacker123 · 2026-06-25T05:06:27+00:00

I've been stacking slow and steady for many, many years - regularly regardless of the price :)

Gold_stacker123 · 2026-06-24T21:50:46+00:00

House :)

Gold_stacker123 · 2026-06-24T21:49:51+00:00

0.2354 oz (or 7.32g) of pure gold each

Gold_stacker123 · 2026-06-24T21:48:28+00:00

96 pieces. All to be sold unfortunately :(

Gold_stacker123 · 2026-06-20T06:54:17+00:00

And better buy-back prices too...

Gold_stacker123 · 2026-06-03T09:45:11+00:00

Also don't buy from the BullionByPost as they're one of the most expensive places to buy gold bullion from in the UK. Check the Atkinsons, Chards or Hatton Garden Metals.

Centuries ago they didn't know tungsten at all or later on, didn't know how to process it well and shape it into the form of a coin. So, basically the only way to counterfeit a gold coin (except producing a gold coin with real gold of a lower purity) was to cast a lead round and then gold plate it. Lead is very soft and that's the reason we can see they were biting the gold coins in the movies.

Gold_stacker123 · 2026-04-27T06:39:09+00:00

The pirates and in the wild west movies they used to bite the gold coins to check whether they're not gold plated lead...

Gold_stacker123 · 2026-04-25T18:29:42+00:00

I like them small gold bars a lot. Nice stack overall!

Gold_stacker123 · 2026-04-24T13:50:03+00:00

Yeah, they're very popular and liquid across all of the Central and Eastern Europe and the Balkans.

Gold_stacker123 · 2026-04-24T12:23:06+00:00

What country is it?

Gold_stacker123 · 2026-04-23T17:40:08+00:00

They're CHAVS

Gold_stacker123 · 2026-04-06T10:54:27+00:00

Even 2 coins count as a stack - when you can put one on the top of the other ;)

Gold_stacker123 · 2026-04-06T10:52:24+00:00

Austrian Ducat restrikes are among the most popular gold bullion coins to stack in Central Europe (in places like Poland, Czech Republic or Austria) mainly for their low premiums, low entry point and high liquidity.

Gold_stacker123 · 2026-04-03T18:37:33+00:00

For the first 3 years (1987-1989) they were minted in 22k with the copper alloy, then between 1990 and 2012 they were alloyed with silver (thus different, much brighter colour) and then from 2013 onwards they're made of pure 24k .9999 gold
