    hi stackers,

    Does anyone know what has happened to the stock horse series? I can see a 5oz gold stock horse but no silver coins. I thought it was a 10 year series?

    Cheers BM

    Great idea, but for some reason it didn’t take off. Maybe poor timing? And then the 2016 came out, and essentially destroyed the series - IMHO. And 10 horses was a bit too aggressive anyway. I think 5 is perfect. For a mintage of 10k, and a high buy in price, these have not been a good investment for flipping - for the most part (not carded pieces).

    The company that distributes these coins is run by one of the greediest coin dealers in germany...this is the main reason his product failed

    Tommy. I’m sure that is the reason. I have heard bad things about that dealer EMK? Greedy is under statement.

    Couldn’t Perth mint continue the carded series, I’m sure there would be interest in a run of 1000?
