I like this design for its beauty. I wanted to buy it as a gold ounce. However, I did think the premium was way too high. I also wasn't buying a full ounce anyway. If I was going to buy a gold ounce this was the one I would get.
When the Silver version came out, I bought it immediately without hesitation. It had a premium that was also way too high. But at least it was in the realm of affordability.
Along the same lines I was able to buy a silver Krugerrand which also had a very high premium.
i like kurgerands.... i would have bought some but i tend to prefer coins over rounds (since i dont think they have a monetary value they are more like a round)
