    is this coin real?

    Ah, Bloomst, you were a busy boy during your last visit . I believe he has had them for nearly 2 years ...... Appears there aren't too many collectors out there that are prepared to pay a premium on 925 .... ..especially when its sole purpose was to be a drink coaster :) and I believe there...

    what would a gold confiscation in america mean to australia

    In all honestly , I really can't see Australia following suit with such an archaic approach of confiscating gold/silver....... What we could expect with minimal controversy to the government and mining sector is the introduction of GST on bullion. Just my opinion

    is this coin real?

    A local dealer currently has some in stock...he advised that they were designed with the purpose of being drink coasters ( believe it or not ) :) there is also a chance that the listed coin is 925 and not pure 999 But in saying that, none of the coins/medallions that the dealer has are...

    carded koalas.. are they now all coloured

    Does this mean that the 1oz carded bullion series has come to an end ( series 1 anyway ) If this is the case......I can see the series becoming extremely collectable ....especially since there is only 7 years to collect . For those that have the collection......I think the Perth Mint has just...

    Wavy 20c coin

    I would suggest attending a local numismatic meet (believe most states hold monthly meets ). At these meets you normally find a number of well knowledge dealers under the same roof....giving you the opportunity to gather more than one opinion.

    Lunar Death?

    Not dead, just dormant until the next release. If you compare series I to series II, sales figures...series II has experience greater sales......so its pretty hard to say the series is dead when in fact its popularity is growing. Base on series I, the year of the horse would appear to be...

    I place the majority of my 1oz bars in capsules, including stagecoach bars........like a lot of other members on this sight do. so hear you are telling people not to touch a stagecoach in a capsule Its a pretty broad statement to be making...i'm assuming your statement is in relation to...

    Hi there! can i have some advice please? 925 italy silver

    You just proved my point. The magnet slid off, eventhough there may have been some slight resistance from other metals that make up the .001

    Hi there! can i have some advice please? 925 italy silver

    Hi MH, Welcome to stackers. Just for future reference....pure silver .999 is not magnetic. Your item is 925....therefore, there would be other metals in your item that would be magnetic . I would have been more concerned if the magnet didn't work...if item was marked 925. Cheers Argento
