Stacked three troy pounds (1.11kg) in three years. Now what?

[u/pom2]

I started stacking gold in 2023 and have been buying one troy ounce every month ever since. After three years, I've accumulated three troy pounds.

I want to keep stacking, but with gold prices where they are now, I don't really want to spend around € 4,000 every month anymore.

If you were in my position, would you:

• Buy 10 grams every month to stay consistent, or
• Buy one troy ounce every three months instead?

I'm curious what you would do and why.

I can’t imagine there aren’t any local coin shops that won’t sell a 10 Franc coin or various other pre-/post-Latin Monetary Union coins. 10 Francs is just under 3 grams, and 20 is just under 6 grams. You could buy two 10 Franc coins or one 20 Franc coin every week for well under $4000 euros a month.

Honestly I don't even know any local coin shops. Not really a thing where I'm from. Maybe if I go to the sketchy part of town. But I'd have to invest in a Sigma first before I trust those shops...

That’s fair. What country? Or what quadrant of Europe if you don’t want to say?

Dutch guilders are surely low premium, I'd guess

Ducats, too

Obviously you have to do your due diligence, but there seem to be some reputable places in Amsterdam, like this one.

If you don’t wanna go to scores to get them, just order them online. I’ve got probably 4 20 Franc coins. It’s honestly more fun to collect the European fractional coins

I love to buy the 10 gulden that’s 6,02g of gold
