    You've got more than me, I should be asking you for advice. :)

    I don't really think it matters. In my early stages I'd look at stuff I didn't have, say maples, and then go "Ooooh I gotta have me some of those", or those Andean cats that forum members were buying a few months ago. Now I don't care as long as I keep stacking. Buy whatever is at a price which you're willing to pay, don't get caught up in paying more for items you don't have unless, you are collecting.

    I reckon you should just buy boring and buy value. If it duplicates what you already have then so what?

    or, if you cant afford 1kg bars , I recently picked up a couple of 500g bars,very very sweet and very very shiny, probably best looking 500g bars I have seen.

    Did you really get some $10 coins for $15.50 last Sunday. Even $22 is a good price . I would rather have 2 of the $10 coins than a 1oz Kook.

    get rid of those 40% kennedy halves - they're not as respected and recognized at 90%. if you want american coins, get the 90% ones ... that's just my american opinion though.

    Just get bullion IMHO. If you're chasing close to spot, avoid coins, you won't get them at that price. Bullion is as close to spot as you are going to get, the bigger the bar, the better.

    It would seem you have cash to burn for larger purchases, so keep on the 1kg trail IMHO and get the best bang for your buck.

    i agree. Dont worry much about spreading how much you stack across 20-30 different types of coins bars etc. Id consentrate on perth mint/PAMP 1kg, 20oz and 10oz bars. and 1oz kooks
    Get your kooks up to 50-100
    get the 1kg bars to 5
    20oz 10 of them
    and 10 oz 20-30 of them
    not going to happen over night but thats a target i think is achievable if you chip away at it fortnightly and keep your eyes on the forums for great deals.. its a stack you are after, not a collection
