Up 75% in under 6 years?
Anyone know how much Sterling devalued over that time?
I'd bet you're still ahead though.

So that's the date of purchase for the silver that was £20 and is now £35? I must admit, I'd made up "2009" in my head, but 2019 ... wow. The girl done good!
Yes, 2019. Unfortunately, I hadn't been enlightened in 2009 otherwise I would have started buying then! :lol:

I remember when sovereigns were £14 each, was Harald Wilson in power ?, my pocket money wouldn’t stretch (£2 week)
but I did search any change I got for pre 1920 silver coins and pre 1947 half silver.
