    Not sure why I'm selling many of my collectables as auctions. Could do it on ebay but where's the fun for the Silver Stackers community. :)

    An Easter Holiday Gold Coin auction, Starting NOW and ending at 9pm Monday night (18 Apr 2022).
    • Western Samoa $100 proof coin.
    • Almost half an oz with the coin containing 0.4583 oz of gold
    • Besides it's bullion value ($1219 AUD at current spot), only 2000 of these coins were minted by the Royal Australian Mint for the Government of Western Samoa. I have no idea then what it's numismatic value is, but at such a low mintage and being the 1st Gold Coin issued by Samoa, it would have to be a hard one for collectors to get their hands on.

    A link with a little info on this very hard to find coin https://www.apmex.com/product/63145/1976-samoa-gold-100-tala-us-bicentennial-proof

    Bidding will start with the first bid at the coins gold spot price value as of today $1219 AUD

    No rule against sniping other than that the exact close of bidding is by my watch, not by the watch of anyone playing the "sniping game". :)

    Everything original with this coin ie packing box, display case, information booklet & certificate of authenticity.

    The current high bid is less than today's spot price.... :( Looks like a loss for me and a deadset bargain for some-one else.
