I'm pretty new to the stacking game. I'm a complete pm junky and want to diversify and add platinum and palladium to my stack. I don't normally have enough $ to buy 1 oz of the stuff at one time so I was thinking about 1/4 oz 1/10 oz or maybe 1/2 oz coins. What are my options. I know there is a 1 oz platinum and there are 1/2oz 1/4 oz and 1 oz palladium maples. Any other cool coins that I should look into and what kind of premium am I looking at. Thanks in advance.
The platypus is a beautiful coin and I want to purchase one eventually. It appears they only come in 1 oz. Form. At this point I can probably only afford 1/4 - 1/2 oz. Its hard to have 1900 bucks to spend on pms at one time I normally bolt for the shop everytime I have a few hundred bucks on me. Smaller coins while the premium may be higher is all I can realistically afford.
Those are beautiful pretty high premium but gorgeous coins. But 340 for 1/10 oz? I can get two 1/10 gold maple leafs for that. I'm more concerned with weight than collectability. But if I had more money I'd pick up those for for sure. I might be better off doing a swap.
There are many varieties of platinum coins/bullion you can look into. For reference: http://www.apmex.com/Category/505/Platinum.aspx Maples and Eagles will likely always be the easiest to readily locate in Canada.
