    (terrible photo, not mine).

    Picked it up for $35 inc. postage, only .6oz silver though (I think). I'm not a coin person at all, but with limited funds this week I thought I'd grabs something different.

    These look much better in person, Time is my favourite :)

    It was difficult getting a good picture of them, but here's a quick sample

    I have not kept my feelings hidden about RSC but 1 thing is for sure, they make - made very nice stuff.
    I managed to buy this from very kind member just recently and I'm stoked.

    Hey cowsgomoomoo, the kilo Libertad is indeed a spectacular piece of art! Congrats on your wonderful investment. The 2013 is very low mintage and is sure to increase quite nicely in value.

    In my view, the Aztec Calendar silver kilo coin is at least just as spectacular as the Libertad. The 2013 edition is very low mintage. Here's what a kilo silver Aztec calendar looks like:

    If you order through dealers in the US, here's one that's still in stock: http://www.apmex.com/product/77525?...flashbanner&utm_campaign=08142013product77525

    ^was going to suggest this one as the next kilo buy, really is a beautifully intricate coin. Pretty cool 'minting' process explained in the book too.

    Cows, excellent buy. Welcome to the club!

    Is this real?
    I went to the LCS and started taking all the silver, but they got mad.
    Also I got caught on the surveillance camera. WTF! Definitely returning this.

    The Royal Mint is in Mordor? That explains their prices.
    The COA clearly states that it will grant the power of invisibility to its bearer.
    Can anyone who reads elvish verify its authenticity?

    The Aztec is definitely a nice piece.. but it did not turn me on like how the kilo libertad did :lol:

    Anyways.. there's so much distraction now that the horses are released
