    Midnight to 6am - Overnight Spot Watchers Spot...

    Seems to be plateauing just under AU$20. If our dollar didn't keep slipping it would be about $18.50 now. :s

    Silver for sale..lots of it.

    Except for all these sellers who remove the prices from their original posts once something is sold. Makes it hard to see what prices anything is selling for...

    Dont understand this buy, trade, sell forum.

    A $200 coin is a 10g gold coin with a face value of $200 - spot makes that worth about $400. Most prices here are somewhere between spot, and what the big dealers are charging. I can walk in to at least 3 dealers in Perth and sell any .999 silver at spot price - if I'm selling on here, I'm...

    Retail price if the AUD goes down?

    If the AUD goes down, we pay more for silver. But if you sell, you'll get more AUD for it.

    Aussie dollar to drop below 66c - "benign" collapse ahead

    Unemployment rose from 6.0% to 6.4% last month, and was expected to fall slightly to 6.3% this month. But the figures released tonight say it's dropped to 6.1%, so better than expected. Presumably there should be a bit of a bounce back tomorrow.

    1/2 oz horse

    Spot at the moment is 967 Euro. That means spot for your 1/2oz is 483 Euro. Most bullion dealers won't offer you much more than that unfortunately. :( Better bet for a good price is a private sale, though I'm not sure how many Latvian members we have here (but there are a few Russian and...

    Gold Lunar Goat?

    My 2013 Kangaroos have a slight halo around the queens head. I just thought it was normal for gold coins?

    Help with sizes of Perth Mint Lunar Gold Coins?

    I have a 1/4oz here, I can measure it with some calipers tomorrow if you want. One question - do 1/4oz gold PM kangaroos usually rattle a tiny bit in the capsule (back and forward, not left to right)? It was a buyback, so it might not be the original capsule...

    Red spots on sealed gold PAMP bar

    If you want to be certain, you could always chat to your local bullion dealer and see if they'll XRF it for you.

    Pretty sure that's the coin without the capsule.

    List of Australian stores that stock Perth Mint coins

    I've checked out a few coin stores in Perth, but I don't bother now. $18 for a 1966 Round 50c? Well over RRP for Proof lunars, while they're still available from the mint?

    Extreme millesimal fineness: why .99999 (five nines) coins?

    There are plenty of industrial uses were extreme purity is necessary, but for coins (I think) it's just something to differentiate it. Certain coins marked .999 could actually be .9999 or .99999, but the number stamped on them means that's the minimum they guarantee. EDIT: I do have some RSC...

    hoard my fiat or leave it in the mortgage offset?

    As I understand it, anything you redrawn can't be negative geared later on. So if you ever plan on turning your property into an investment, you're better off just using the offset.

    hoard my fiat or leave it in the mortgage offset?

    If you leave it in the offset, you're effectively getting 5%+ untaxable return. I wouldn't bother holding much physical fiat. I don't think a Cyprus style raid on deposits is likely in Aus, as the Government can just print the cash if it needs (and cause some nasty inflation). And if they go...
