Bars, general govt issue and Some Perth Mint semi’s is enough for me. Feel more confident with art after that.

Speak with an insurance broker. They’ll ask tons of questions about your business and find you the best insurer. They get a fee of course every time you renew but also act as a liaison between your business and the insurance company. That relationship can prove invaluable.

Specialized insurance covers after the basics of public, product liability, stock and contents. You can insure against almost anything if you pay enough. Ask your insurance broker. Some companies can’t be bothered so you might have to shop around.

You can get a “rider” on your business insurance to cover shipping mishaps and lost items but the cost is incredibly expensive.

It would be interesting to know if bullion dealers “self insure” or not. For me, Australia Post manages to lose about 3 things a year of ours but the extra insurance cover is so expensive it’s better to just eat the cost of the ones that go missing than insure them all. Just a side note...

It only seems to be an issue if you seek compensation.

Passed on the dog - going to pass on the pig too.

What % under spot would scrap price normally be +\-

Bullion money could be worth a look too when comparing prices

The bullion course is well worth your time

I can’t bring myself to hold Gold for that very reason.

I'm new to PM's (3 months) and have only bought silver, as I am learning. But will probably start into gold soon.
