I am new to this forum and interested in the thoughts of others and advise on different products. I have received my gem 1kg dragon looks great hope I did the right thing in buying it.
If you a investor stay far away from nice looking coins. When you need to sell them one day, you may become emotionally attached.haha
Iam investor/collector/small trade to the gift market. 10 oz bars get stacked,small bars and coins i trade with.The more generic the better with no face value.When i do purchase coins they are bought for on selling. A lot of premium silver around,its all very nice,but the premium will be hard hit if the market drops out, (dont see that happening for a while). That said tho, some coins can fetch really good $$ you just need to know the market. I find that both investment and collecting is just heaps of fun,the more you get into it, the more you learn. Last year i pulled paper out of the market and put it into bullion, i actually feel like i have invested in something!
I bought a 1 kg gem just for me as I like the look of them. I must say i was very disappointed with mine. A couple of dents in the rim and just looked a little shabby.I was even more pissed off when i discovered they had printed another 500 but without the gem. So a smaller run without the gem at a little less asking price.
Yep PM really disappointed a lot of people with these - especially the Chinese buyers - they should've sorted the QC & presentation box out properly and spent the time to make it a real premium coin - One ruby? What was that about? Cost saving measure? Disaster more like IMHO. If its for investment stick with bricks or the bu 1kg drag 4 sure
I am sorry you are both unhappy with the gem coin ruby is expensive and there are different grades not that I know what grade these are maybe you should put this to PM and I am sure that if one was damaged they would replace the coin. I am happy with mine although I am not expert.
where u located? get a refund of PM. get to melb as there are plenty of gem 1kg selling at Auspost post shops outlets. check them for quality n get them there instead..
PM already know what people think mate - They were probably too busy prettying-up the 9-coin Coloured bu export China-only sets - Nice to put your core domestic/customers first on special products eh?
Which post offices have them in melbourne Iand how much are they charging ? I would not mind picking up a second one.
