    The premium on our numismatic coins covers the cost of manufacturing, marketing, presentation packaging, certificate etc. There are a number of reasons for the greater premium on gold proof coins. Goods & Services Tax accounts for a greater proportion of their retail price. From a manufacturing perspective, gold proof coins are made in much smaller runs on our presses. We also sell numismatic gold coins on the basis of rarity, beauty and thematic appeal, all factors that affect retail pricing. Bullion coins, on the other hand are made in much, much larger quantities and come without display packaging. As a result we can offer them much closer to spot.

    you've got the best name on this board. I wanna be the Silver Monk. You are a monk of a very high order, and you deserve respect. When the time of trial comes, as it inevitably will, as a monk, you will prove yourself worthy of the task. Is the rumour about monks on SS true, I want to know. Apparently an SS priesthood is going to be setup, and the highest grade on SS will be that of Silver Monk. You have surpassed yourself this time.
