Silver Britannia Coins - Are They Good For Silver Stacking?

  • This video is all about Silver Britannia Coins and if they are good for silver stacking or not. I start out the video talking about Silver Britannias in general and the history of them. I talk about the years of the silver britannia and how from 1997-2012 they were made with .958 or Britannia Silver. From 2013-Present the Britannia Silver Coins were made with .999 silver. I show off a new Silver Britannia 2020 coin in the video. That is the only 2020 1 oz silver britannia coin that I own and I bought it for this video. I am a fan of the Britannia design I just don't think they are as liquid as other silver coins in my area so I don't buy them for silver stacking. When looking at the silver britannia vs the american eagle silver coins ASE are better in my area. I talk about how these might be a great option in Europe and suggest that if there are any silver britannias for sale over there that don't require VAT to be paid then they would be a good buy. I do touch on special issues as well such as the silver britannia monkey privy and other assorted sizes and finishes that the royal mint offers. In conclusion my silver britannia stack will remain small, but if I find them on sale I will pick them up.

    Hi, you probably already have been told this but the earlier Britannia coins DO have 1 Troy ounce of .999 in them. Just like the full Krugerrand, extra alloys are added, copper I think. The Krugerrand states it has 1 Troy ounce of.999 gold...but the coin itself is actually 22ct gold due to the copper added, which makes the krugerrand around 34gms. It’s exactly the same with the earlier Britannia coins. The alloy is added to reduce the silver content to Britannia silver grade, there is infact Britannia graded silver jewellery but its few and far between. Also it’s a higher grade than sterling. The is still a full 1 Troy ounce of .999 silver in these coins 🪙
    Hope I’ve explained that ok and it doesn’t sound like a load of garbage lol

      I don't know why stackers get so hung up on milk spots.
      When Silver bullion gets recovered from the sea bed, its black!
      The colour doesn't hinder the economics in its recovery.
      I have britannias from 2016, some pristine, some not. It really doesn't matter.
      I have 2oz QB complete sets, an online outlet says " ring us" for buy back.
      They sell at a 100+% premium on some, they then only offer scrap or spot price (which is the same).
      When I asked, would I get less for bog standard britannias, they said it doesn't make any difference.
      Then I suggested "so I might just as well crush them in a vice if you're going to treat them as scrap".
      Needless to say, they weren't too happy with that, " We couldn't resell them"
      My suggestion to all, buy the cheapest that you can carry in one trip, denominated in your own currency units, then go for gold.
      Milk spots? Several 'cures' on UA-cam to be found, if your that bothered.

    Buying the Brittanias, or Philharmonics at a good price is a wonderful thing, BUT, when you go to resell them (here in the U.S.), some LCS’s aren’t even interested in purchasing them, or only willing to pay generic prices (generally $.50 to $1 under spot). If I’m buying any silver, it’s gonna be the silver in the greatest demand (the American Silver Eagle), most recognizable, easiest to resell to anybody, and in my opinion, the most beautiful.

    Too timely. This past weekend I bought 5 Britannias from my Local Coin Shop to complete a 25 tube. When I got home I noticed I had one 1998 Britannia, which was slightly bit heavier (still within One Troy Ounce) and a wee bit larger than the other 24. But that off beat Britannia was within 1 Troy Ounce, passed the magnet test, and had the sweetest sound I have ever heard using the ping test.
    Thanks for letting me know about the change over the Brits did on the Britannia. Guess I need to complete a tube of old and new. Agree the Lady with the Trident is cool. But that old lady on the other side appears to be a manic self-publicist. Do you realize she not only appears on those Brit Coins, but also the ones minted by Canada, Australia, New Zeeland, and a bunch of other places? lol
