I recently purchased a tube of 25 silver kangaroos from the Perth mint, to start my collection. The tube is sealed with a tamper proof seal, which I had to break to see what the top coin looked like, which I would imagine everyone would do?...Is it a bad move to break this seal with regards to future value etc, and does anyone remove all their coins using cotton gloves from these tubes to inspect after purchase, or is it best to just leave them alone with the seal intact? Thanks.
they are a real bullion coin, I wouldn't worry about it they wont get much of a premium like the kooks and lunars do. I got some maples and I play with em. I intend to use them, along with some bars I have, when doing a GSR swap down the road.
I had the same "problem" first time I bought a tube. Now I buy 26 coins instead. You get the same volume break on the last coin, but you have one to play with.
He means they don't sell that well, which surprises me because I thought they were well recognised, and highly liquid.
If the price is good enough, you can sell anything.. Wanna make those Roos liquid? DROP THE PRICE. As a rule, on SS, don't bother selling on a down swing expecting large spreads over spot. The buyers all seem to swing by when silver's hitting new highs. It sucks the best of us in
I can't think of anyone who would be silly enough to pay a premium for coins still wrapped in original plastic.
