Everyone Should Start with Fractional Gold Coins

[@bullionaddict9164]

Stacking fractional consistently not only adds up but helps motivate one’s stacking seeing that pile of gold build.

[@SilverBritches]

It does look good 😊

[@Caveman_911]

Fractionals are my favorite to stack…partially because I can add them to my stack quicker vs saving up for the full ounce. Owning fractional gold can help when/if you need to sell in case of an emergency instead of having to sell a full ounce. When stacking, I wouldn’t advise going below the 1/10th ounce variety, but ultimately, buy what you like and what you can afford…in the end you’ll be happy you own physical gold and silver one way or the other. Happy stacking, peeps!

[@SilverBritches]

Well said caveman!

[@gunmetalblue7714]

I have fractional and ounces and try to dollar cost average when I can. For the ones that stack fractional, true the premiums are higher, but as fiat becomes trash, stacking anything is better than paper.

[@SilverBritches]

Yes sir!

[@TheQuickSilver101]

I agree, plus buying fractional can be motivating. I've bought 1/10 ounce coins but most of them I got private at a way lower premium than a dealer demands. That's about the only time I go lower than a 1/4 ounce. Thanks!

[@SilverBritches]

Well said!

1/4 size is my favorite. mostly modern gold eagles but every once in awhile i splurge on $5 incuse indians. i do get at least one 1/10 age per year but they are so small. easier to see the details on the $10 age and pre 33 half eagles

[@SilverBritches]

I know right!

[@fhbbi]

Fractional also includes gold 20 francs coins. Each contains .1867 troy ozs. Nearly 1/5 troy oz. (Or the .1947 troy oz guilders). Cheaper than buying (2) 1/10 oz gold coins. Remember, the lower the fractional size, the higher the premium. Full ozs cut out a lot of premium. Nice gold coinage, AG !👖's!

[@SilverBritches]

That’s right Joey!

[@Chris6815]

Thanks for the tip. I might start buying some of them.

[@NickFromLongIsland]

The 20 francs are great.. i just picked up 2 recently

[@SilverBackELTorro]

When you need to sell some you can sell a fractional piece instead of cashing out an entire coin but yea. 1 oz is better.

[@SilverBritches]

That’s one of the positives!

[@DrSchor]

you can't sell a fraction of a coin. you always have to sell the entire coin, no matter how small it is. or maybe you are really johnny depp and have pieces of eight

[@TtheSilverStacker]

I like the frac. I agree. When gold is 3K, it will be far more liquid. Heck, it’s more liquid now.

here in the UK sovs are practically like having cash, everyone knows what they are, very easy to sell and one a month adds up to 2.82 ounces of pure 999 gold, buy halves instead and you still have 1.41 ounce, each country is different but probably works out the same.

[@SilverBritches]

Yes sovereigns get no love here from American KZbinrs, but they’re very popular and are never in stock locally. If I lived in the UK, it’s all I would stack along with the Britannia. Britannia are just epic coins btw!

[@dukenukemani07]

I totally appreciate you saying you shouldn't have all 1oz gold coins. Every time I hear some elite stacker say not to stack anything else, I can't help wondering when, not if, he will regret saying that. However, I'm one of those budget stackers that can only afford a 1/4oz per month at the most. I recently (before the spot prices increased last week) bought my first 1/10oz gold coin and I decided that will be my alternative when I can't afford a 1/4oz on any given month. Alot of people tell me I'm better off stacking silver than 1/10oz gold, but I tell them I have 2 problems with that. First problem is the difference in premiums isn't what they claim. It's very similar and in some cases even 10oz silver bars are a bit higher premium than 1/10oz gold. The other problem I tell them is that I already bought alot of silver (over-extended myself a bit) during the 2022 price dips, so I already have an ample amount of silver for my own needs. I'm glad to see more stackers warming up to the concept of fractional gold and in some ways, it validates what I've been saying to the elite stackers. Thank you for sharing and keep on stacking. 👍

[@SilverBritches]

Thanks for the kind words. I appreciate it.

[@DrSchor]

If you can't afford the low premiums on a full ounce how can you afford the higher premiums on a 1/4 ounce? Just some patience will improve your net worth?

[@dukenukemani07]

@@DrSchor My problem is I get bored of a hobby/lifestyle very quickly so if I don't buy a little gold regularly (monthly at minimum) then I'll lose interest and go back to buying crap like porn, booze, cigarettes, etc. I have a spending problem and this ensures I don't throw my money literally in the trash in the end.

[@SilverStruck]

I rather stack a full ounce of gold to drive the premiums down but I also see the uses of fractional gold. Currently, I'm working on a tube of 1/4 ounce gold coins. The tenth ounce gold is fun to stack and I have a few ounces worth of it but no more. Great video sir!

[@andyb8838]

Man... I want to stack 1/4 oz eagles consistently to keep the momentum and motivation high but the premium spread difference vs a full ounce has kept me from doing it. Instead I've been trying to save up for the full ounce. Which is harder... If gold continues to increase, I think you'll start to get back your fractional premiums because that will be what people can afford. Great video as always.

I agree Andy. I’m hoping for a pullback personally but I know it’s going up regardless.

[@PreppingWithSarge]

I fully realize fracs cost more on premium but always remember that precious metals is for LONG term SAVINGS and not an investment. As such, I know we are heading into an economical abyss and prices will rise. In the end and after TIME the premium spent today will moot and absorbed.

[@SilverBritches]

Correct!

[@DrSchor]

You have to believe that prices will rise, or will not rise, you can't believe in both. Since you know PMs are not an investment, then you know prices will not rise relative to what you know is an investment. You cannot also believe in a crash so abysmal that prices will rise enough to make the premium moot.

[@kennyyockey4034]

1 oz was the way I would always go what was the prices started creeping up is sort of changed it and I started backing down but the key thing is to have some and have plenty of money for your bills and emergencies so you do not have to sell it

[@tomtharos4440]

Good video. Goldbacks, beautiful, cultural and spiritual meaning packed into every design. They may not be cost effective to stack but they merit collecting a set of each state and each denomination. I also stack fractional gold. One ounce of gold costs less than ten 1/10 ounces of gold but I’d rather have ten 1/10 ounces than zero ounces. In 2022, I was able to pick up 16 tenth oz coins to fill a tube, plus some other gold. In 2023 I’m going to stack 1/4 oz each month with a soft goal of picking up 15 to finish a tube. Made my first 2023 1/4 oz purchase last week but have also picked up a 1/10 oz Kookaburra plus two 50 Goldbacks this month. Nevada and Wyoming. Peace Brother.

Respectfully disagree with the Goldbacks! I do think it's not for everyone, but in the same way some folks purchase more traditional fractional like 1/10oz coins and then trade up to full oz when they have enough to liquidate, you could slowly increase the amount you have saved in goldbacks for the same purpose.

I also anticipate the dollar to crash in the future. How far in the future? No one can say for sure. At the time, fractional gold will be worth a lot more than it is today.

Hey hey hey. Fractional sucks! Wtf, 10% premium? Save up and get an oz at 2-3% over. Or hunt for deals and deals only. Gold wont go up that much in the 3-4 months it takes u to save for 1oz compared to the premiums youll save, rather than get 10 10ths or 4 quarters. If u get tenths, u gotta wait till gold goes up by 250-400/oz JUST TO BREAK EVEN!! Please dont tell ur viewers to buy fractional, its a ripoff! AND they wont buy it back for a penny more than that fraction of the ounce. Its completely wasted money. If u cant save cash and are too tempted to spend it, and cant save, then get fractional, thats the only reason. Now u have something to hold rather than a splurge on something thats not even memorable, like booze or takeout food etc. Happy stacking
