Today I Bought...

I've wanted one of these for a while but they've been out of stock for over a year and nobody else carries them. I had given up hope. Then poof out of nowhere they're magically in stock. I purchased the last three about 20 minutes ago!

 

They must have been at the end of the rainbow :lol:

 

I find it odd that for over a year they're out of stock then 3 pop up for sale. I imagine that they got lost in inventory somewhere and since October is the new start date for quarterly reports for most businesses that an complete inventory had to be done and they just showed up. In any case I'm just glad to have some now.

 

Just got my Nidhoggr coins today from Provident. Both came with COA's. I'm a little miffed though because although the 1oz coin came in a (cheaply made) provident box the 5oz coin came wrapped in tissue paper. And the COA's had the original artist picture printed on the back but it looked like the printer was running out of ink or "ink saver" mode was chosen.

 

I think provident is putting out too many series, I can't keep up, and the ones they're most recently putting out are being rushed. First they put out the entire series for the North American Wildlife collection at once, then they put this new Nordic creatures series out and have already put out the follow up to the Nidhogger? Seems almost like self sabotage. The rounds look pretty good at least . . .

 

bought a tube of maple leaves. very shiny. no milkspots but they are this year so time will tell.





might get some roos next time.

 

Switched gears to pick up some fractional gold on presales, but will hopefully get back to silver once the black friday/cyber monday deals kick in.

 

2nd bit of gold 1/10

 

It would be very nice indeed to have a tube of 10 of those little babies

 

they only made 500 of them so I fugure they will go up in value

 

A few panda sheets and a philharmonic

 

What better way to follow the Bullion Baron's purchase than with some Bullion Baron bullion:



Courtesy of Mr House, these are one-gram cards from the Baron via 'freesilvercard.com' which unfortunately now seems defunct. But I scored numbers 88 and 99 (cool) and a little bit of Silver Stackers history.

Plus a nice 1oz Libertad and a couple of Lunars but so what, we've all seen those before!

 

My 2017 first purchase, gold fractional from Turkey

 

^^ Wow that's a lot of little gold... thingies! What were the premiums like?

 

1gram = 0.995 = 37.32usd = 134 Turkish lira
They are almost near at spot in my good dealer at Izmit

 

I just pulled the trigger on some Perth Mint 1 oz Silver Dragon & Phoenix
50,000 mintage.

Does this mean I own 2% of Australia's allocation of apparently 5000 WooHoo cant wait to get them.

Anybody else picked some up and like them?

 

I bought a roll and I know quite a few others here have bought them in various quantities. I can't really believe the allocation for Australia is so low as they come in and out of stock quite regularly from most the online retailers I frequent.

I'm planning to give them to friends as wedding presents but I suppose I'll hang on to a few in case they 'shoot to da moon'.

 

Prior to New Year Eve got some silver from USA to snowy Russia )))

Bugger I just got an email my supplier has sold out & forgot to remove this item off of their website. So my order has been cancelled.
I am gutted to say the least.

 

I ended up snagging just 2,

One for me one for my girl,

Sorta wish I had have got a few more after seeing this post
