Hmm I have a similar situation...Mortgage offset account so I have debt on an asset I plan to be rid of in a 1-3 year timeframe with at least a break even outcome including interest paid of course or a moderate profit. Cost of this debt is currently over half of my post tax income just paying...

I was in my local post office weeks ago and enquired about perth mint coins...The bloke showed me a few junk metal proof coins so I told him I was interested in silver lunar dragons of any description and left my number. Noticed a recent post where someone got proof silver lunars at Perth Mint...

Interesting topic...Im in a bind myself as I want more PMs at todays prices but I allready have more debt than I am comfortable with, although at a reasonable interest rate as it is all in a mortgage. I have the ability to "top up" my home loan and use these funds to buy PMs, speculating that...

Sigh ok i missed out too. Was planning to be at the mint @ 9am for a typeset. Reconsidered last night and decided I would leave my house at 9 to avoid the peak hourtraffic. At the last minute I decide I should recruit some buddies to buy extras for me so swing past a mates house and wake em up...

About to head to bed, should really be snoozin allready I need to get up early and hit the mint for oct 4 release...Anyway check my email one last time and bing Ampex alertme! confirmation...Proof silver dragons. Knowing they were charging 99US for bullion i wasnt particulary excited but ~$800...

Semi-newbie lurker here...checked this forum because I was looking for exactly this info. Own gold allready but after some low premium coins thinkin sovs or $200. Checked all the links but silverstackers one is perfect...live gold prices from PM what a peach. Was hoping to see some info about...

I have a 50 ounce perth mint bar but ive never seen another. No idea how long they made them for but of course i dont consider it to be rare or more valuable. Bullion is great being close to spot but I regret getting so many 100 oz bars over 10s or 20s. The difference in premium is minimal. In...

Ive got a fair few PM numi's, mostly coloured that im tossing up what to do with. I started in bullion in mid 08 ...rode out the sub 10 dollar (US) prices without losing my nerve but was bitterfly dissapointed in its performance as it hovered around the 15-20 dollar mark for almost two years...

Thanks for replies, yes i am aware some of the perth mint coloured coins are dubious investments. Famous battle series was a dissapointing underperformer ...however i do quite like the Thermopylae coin so may just hang onto them.

What do people think about this? Actually add some value or just ebay bs? I've got a number of perth mint coloured coins I am considering selling to buy more lunars or bullion, some of which are low or consecutive numbers. eg 1oz silver Thermopylae coin, numbers 944,945,946,947 and 948. Also got...
