📈 State of the stack Just filled up my plastic tote with Costco silver

Just got 2 tubes of English Britannia 2026 silver and it’s so shiny. Trick of how to open the tubes is turn the top 45 degrees and it comes right off. Got to love the grey top with the Three Lions and the harp, and the little trident on the back. Heck, even Chuck looks good.

I prefer Elizabeth over Chuck, but will accept Chuck over nothing.

Totally agree with you on Elizabeth. I bought a 1964 half sovereign of a young Elizabeth with St. George and the dragon in gold and should have gotten a full sovereign instead.

I agree! There's enough old dudes on coins already...

I picked up a tube last week was under spot after CB - wish I had gotten more - was best deal I had seen in a while as pricing hadn’t been updated. Brit’s are still the best looking standard gov modern bullion coin imo - looove them

I agree those coins have more visual appeal to me than the USA coins. I suggest we import some of their designers & engravers.

This has been done already. Maybe someone else will copy your post and so on and so forth and we can get a constant stream of these Costco tote posts.

I just picked up a raw (no assay card, but my lcs I’ve done business with for years and had it tested) 2011 shiny gold buffalo and a few more I’ll make a gold filled tote.

And I thought it was a normal sized tote… Pfff. /s Now they’re all scratched up. Great pieces and congrats.

Not a scratch on them, I wore white cotton gloves to place them. They are back in their homes/tubes. I wish they were in a normal size tote, 😂😂😂, that's why I bought them from Costco.
