The silver products in highest demand right now are the iconic Queen\u2019s Beasts coins, minted by The Royal Mint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Commenting on the UK investment market relating to silver specifically, Gold Bank London\u2019s Founder and Managing Director, Faisel Ali, said, \u201cInvestment trends are showing that silver is a highly attractive proposition right now, and especially for first time investors, even though silver prices are continuing to surge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTraditional investment-grade coins that are widely recognised, highly liquid, and trusted for resale are immensely popular \u2013 and coin collecting is definitely making a comeback, but in a modern way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cInvestors still lean towards bullion coins, but we are seeing more and more interest in themed and commemorative coins, so things that actually mean something to the buyer; Marvel, royal anniversaries, or cultural symbols. Coins carry both emotional and intrinsic value and can be resold. Silver\u2019s popularity is likely to keep increasing, along with the demand for silver coins for investment and keepsake purposes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more insights and information from Gold Bank, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.goldbank.co.uk\">goldbank.co.uk<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gold Bank, one of the UK\u2019s leading buyers and sellers of gold and silver, reports that the company\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":519,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-515","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorised"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.3 -
