Agree with all of those... Horse, Rooster, Mouse, Rabbit, (hate to say it but Dragon) are the better ones

Mine arrived today too!! They're far better in person than their renderings.

Each to their own, beauty really is in the eye of the beholder. Can we agree that the snake is probably the least attractive design?

I think I am mentioned earlier (in reference to Silver Tuesday) if one ever finds a way to beat the system, the system will just change the rules & make what one is doing a criminal offence. (The Bunker-Hunt brothers/Silver Tuesday should serve as a cautionary tale for all)

...& Always remember (as was pointed out previously RE wood), moisture & molten metal are a recipe for disaster & pain!!

A couple of Aussie Au classics!!

Yeah, the sand casting kinda opened up that whole sector of "other" materials for ingot molds apart from the obvious Iron or Graphite.

I thought of another more obvious one last night too.. Green sand/sand like they do for jewellery

I thought you might think that when I wrote it but kinda thought Krugerrands clarified... sorry!!

South Africa was suffering under international sanctions imposed due to Apartheid & the regime that upheld it. The one thing they did have that everyone wanted was gold... Thus the first bullion coins, the Krugerrand was born in 1968. The only people who dare buy them were criminals, other rogue...

You make a very valid and poignant point, one I had not previously considered!! I live to have my mind changed on things & you sir are well on the way to changing my mind about this. My only reservations would be that (as was wittnessed by the Krugerrand in S.A.) surely a "black" market for...

Confiscation is legally virtually impossible here in Australia & as was already highlighted, they'd have to prove you had it first... How many of you would March willingly to a government outlet and hand over all your metals at a lower than market price in exchange for a pile of fiat fresh off...

Both metals are long term plays .... If you're going to look at it as an investment, In most cases it works best to think on an intergenerational basis... building wealth for your kids but I think if you're getting involved in metals, you have to be prepared to have your funds tied up for around...

As for you.... FOR SHAME!!! Every stacker worth their salt should know about Silver Tuesday, the Bunker-Hunt Brothers (and some shady Saudi's) attempt at cornering the PHYSICAL silver market. The big point I took away from their experience was that if you become a risk to the status quo, the...

Depends how heavily "in" metals one is as to how much one feels the rise & fall of AUD...to a certain extent anyway. I do agree however I view prices/cost of pretty much everything in ounces of gold or silver....a shirt, 2-3oz Ag, a cheap second hand 1980's Benz 2oz Au Being involved in metals...

When this happens I'm always reminded that the real money is metals, they are the constant... it's AUD, USD...all fiat that dances around their value

Surely not tonight for the first time!?!

If not from graphite, what form? I've heard of wood, have cast iron & graphite.... what else is there?
