check out the Perth Mint, Europac has always recommended it. The gold is insured, triple AAA rated and backed by the Australian govt, and they store it for you for free.

I didn't see you were looking for my opinion on the whole matter. Personally I think gold is at peak right now, and may drop slowly over the next two years, and then ramp up when our next inevitable crash comes, maybe in 2-3 years. The next bubble will be the dollar bubble and it will be very ugly when it bursts. Gold should skyrocket. So if you are looking long term, it's probably fine to buy, but I feel it will drop a bit over the next year.
I have investments in NEM, which has done well this year (but so has everything else) and I own some GLD, which has also done well. I have actually not taken the leap yet into buying bullion, I would probably go with Perth, but it has a minimum 10k investment which Im not ready to go for. All of the other places Ive seen grossly overprice their gold. If Im paying anything more than 10% of current prices Im just not gonna do it.
I still love my PGH, best long term investment I ever made...it might be a bit too high now tho, but I bought low and I get a monthly dividend from them, I believe it's 8 cents a share?
