Hello everyone. Recently arrived in Perth from South Africa. Have tiny bit gold back in SA. You can really buy silver coins in SA. Moving here has opened a new door into the silver stacking world! Already been browsing the site for a couple of weeks and made my first purchase on Wednesday. That about it Regards, Hendrik
Oh hi! Think we have another stacker from SA here. The SA mint has some really nice coins. Do share your knowledge on them here.
Yes, I was actually unaware that you can buy silver bullion until a few months ago. You definitely get more coins for your dollars than buying gold! Unfortunately my knowledge about the different coins is as limited as my supply. Just have a couple of Kruger rands that my dad has in safe keeping (armed with dogs and automatic lasers... ). All I know is the Kruger rands is not 99.xxx% gold. It is closer to 92%. The rest is copper. This makes the coins more durable. The total gold weight is 1oz, so the coins is slightly heavier than 1oz.
