Sideways?

You might be able to get it for a decent price ($100 or less + $25 shipping) from some of the auction houses in Canada. I see them pop-up occasionally at Colonial Acres Coin auctions and at Canadian Coins and Paper Money auctions.

Aren't they both going up because of a general bump in commodities prices? Higher commodities prices equals an improved Aussie economy.

If I understand their production plan correctly, they'll be producing this coin for the next several months, so I don't think they are sold out yet. On the other hand, it does sound like they are back ordered...

They reported on reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/Silverbugs/comments/3wexyh/elemetal_mint_releases_mintages_on_the_privateer/) that for the first Privateer they minted 70,344.

Any quantity... http://www.apmex.com/product/89616/2-oz-silver-round-the-privateer

Will be interesting to see how much the US dollar can go down if everyone else is trying to push their own dollars lower first....

That USD or AUD? I've been seeing them go for $90 to I think $120 AUD on eBay, but I've managed to pick up some here for $60 AUD.

While I was living in the US, I was amazed by how many people hadn't even traveled outside of a 2 or 3 county area, let alone outside of their state. I'm pretty doubtful about the claim that poor people are poor because of their own life choices. Sure, it's true for the middle class kid who...

I've been going to their auctions (http://www.edlins.com.au/edlins_auctions.htm) for awhile and people with much deeper pockets than me are consistently there spending substantially more than me at the auction. At their auction back in November(?), I think one guy spent $10k-20k buying up gold...

Probably about as certain as you can be these days. Bought them at a reasonably well known Australian auction house that specializes in coins and stamps and sells stuff to a lot of Australian dealers and international collectors. The fun in this case translates to doing a fair amount of...

I'm wondering if you are running into some of the fallout from the trademark dispute. If you do a google search for "sbss ebay counterfeit" there is a cached link to a post by Chris where he is talking about aggressively going after the counterfeits on ebay that were made by the people he was in...

I wonder if your next best option is to talk to some local reporters and have them do the magnet test on a bunch of items available for inspection and up for auction, mention it to the people at the auction company and then bust them when they continue to sell the item.

This would probably put me off of buying from them... That plus having seen similar fakes for sale on eBay. I've seen some really questionable selling tactics by local general auctioneers with respect to coins and numismatic type items. I witnessed one auctioneer here strongly imply that...

I'm not getting your logic for paying by credit card rather than by check or money order. If you bought the silver at the price you wanted, why is it such an incredibly big deal for you to wait the extra few days for the stuff to ship to you if you're going to be holding on to it for awhile...

You can't order from Perth Bullion? Or is it still cheaper from the U.S.?

I'm going to buy it, but I'm so-so on this one. Beyond the retarded bandicoot, the ship just seems to be poorly drawn. I'm not if the detail is simply too hard to include, but it would have been cool if they could have included some crew members fighting off the kraken and/or some crew in the...

I don't remember where I read it, but I thought I read somewhere that this is going to be a five coin series like the American Landmarks series.... Also, I'm calling it now, last coin in the series will be the treasure or the booty...

Had a bit of fun at an auction today... Picked up this Mexican silver... [/imgz] [/imgz] And this 2008 ANDA Coin Show Guilded kookaburra... [/imgz] EOIs are welcome...

You guys seemed to be having so much fun with your Mexican silver that I decided to join the party. Below are some pictures of the coins I picked up today. If you're interested in any of them feel free to shoot me a PM. The bottom right coin is a Spanish 4 reales coin from 1794. [/imgz] [/imgz]
