Im thinking of investing in a Perth mint silver certificate, which Peter Schiff has recommended in the past. Any info on how much the storage costs are or how straightforward it is to buy and sell themwould be most welcome.
Thanks
I bought one for silver recently you have to buy through an a approved dealer,the storage costs for silver is 2.5% a year gold is 1.5% a year.
They also run a free unallocated certificate with no costs,but i preferred the actual storage costs per a year because you actually own it instead of a paper promise and are easily sold through approved dealers or just turn up at the mint.
You have to weight out the pro and cons in allocated or unallocated silver.
Here's a link from one of the Perth mint approved dealers the only one in Europe fully trustworthy ,they charged me 3.9% commission.
