ECS, Thanks. Even though I have sold off some of my Britannias I do still have the whole 2006 Britannia Golden Silhouette Coins in the original case and all. The last time I saw an OGP set sell on ebay it still sold for over $800.00 US and singles are selling for over $300.00 a piece. This is the different designs of the 2006 set Obverse looks the same on all coins Reverses     There are different places guilding Britannia's with Gold but the only way to know if they are from this set or not is all of the coins have the 2006 date where the other companies set will have different dates for the different designs in their set Edit: I just looked and there is a set on ebay right now for $785.00 US ( a little over $800.00 with shipping to the US) http://www.ebay.com/itm/5oz-0-958-S...em5d363cd2af |

last week I was just about to buy a gold 2013 britannia, then I saw RCM's 1912-1914 gold coins, so I decided to buy a piece of canadian history  |

Forty eight per is not too shabby for that set Fat Freddy, nice to have no doubt.... I would need to win at 45 per (675 total) at the most if I put back up to sell at a higher rate of say 55 per coin (or 825 total) buy it now or something. You would not make much after losing about 75 to fees and shipping, clear bout 750 and make 30 bucks if you sold it at 825 after winning at 720 or so that they won it at.... But to have for ones own collection to keep and enjoy. Or to sit on for some time and sell when silver is way higher defintely would be o.k. at that price.... This makes selling things like 20 ox or other high premium items like the fore mentioned tough QUICK flips and it does not compute.... If you can clear 50 bucks, and it takes 6 months to do it, it simply does not compute to tie up 800 bucks say for example to make 50 bucks.... So if quick flippin is in your plans you are far better to get nice bulk rolls of RCM animals or ASE perhaps and sell them piece by piece, solo at 40 plus each.... Another fine example of how you are NOT gonna get rich or make much in short position of pms, but again in the long run you have that chance to really make out well.... Edited by Silverhawk74

I have Proof and BU ones from when I was collecting and looking to start collecting proof golds in 2013. Very nice coins and I like the high premiums.
I like the Brits versus the Libertad proofs and the Pandas but my favorite over the Brit is the Silver Eagle proof, really like that eagle!

Just got my 2013 and it seems they have gone from a 40mm coin to a 38 mm. Am I imagining things? I find this very irritating.

The decrease in size more than likely comes into the fineness. I heard that 2013 the Britannia is moving to 0.999 fine instead of the previous alloy of 0.958 (?).

Yeah, that's what I figured. But their are a number of .999 coins that are 40 mm. I wish they had just reduced the thickness. I just don't like to buy another size of air-tite just for them.

Provident has 2013s for $37.15. APMEX has a 24hr sale on the 2013s, $37.71 each no minimum required. Not on their ebay store, not on goldmart, $38.74 on gainsville, $42.35 on GoldenEagle. Tempting . . . |

 I agree totally with the irritation felt at the coin diameter reduction. The Mexicans found it necessary for some unknown reason to increase the diameter of the Libertad in 2000, and they didn't even change purity, weight or anything else. I think they both have large numbers of overpaid, fat executives who sit around in endless and useless meetings, hatching bonehead schemes like changing coin sizes just to prove they're actually doing something (and with luck, hopefully aggravate the coin-buying public in the process). |
