The idea sounds great in theory and I would also support a group buy BUT. IMO , as so many have already mentions....to buy say 3 bars and save a possible $60...its not really worth the the exercise unless your prepared to buy in bulk as an individual we're your saving $600+ then it starts to...

Interesting response Ron. I think the problem/confusion has been bought about by the Perth Mint, with earlier holy dollar and dump releases. The 1988/1989 & 1990 releases were all 1.25oz , then when they released the historical coin collection in 2005/2006 the holy dollar in that particular...

I would say AUD$40 would be the bench mark......for a perfect coin. Unfortunately these coins were not issued in capsules and had a tendency of having excessive scuff marks, resulting in the coin only being worth spot. Stunning coin though, if fortunate enough to have one in excellent condition.

Hi Au... There have been several post on stackers recently on how frustrated people are with several mints producing coins with milk spots .....but are they still prepared to pay a premium for lunars...... Although a bullion product, they still carry a numismatic collector premium.......demand...

I dont have the coins , so pics aren't available. I will try an obtain a pic of the coin showing the scratch marks that I'm talking about as for milk spots, I'm sure we all know what they look like Basically , I didn't purchase the coins due to the flaws. All I'm seeking is the general opinion...

Hi SS, Thanks for your reply. Yes , I'm referring to the Perth Mint. And also agree that the earlier series two releases appear to have less flaws. The problem appears to begin with the tiger. In relation to the scratches....the type of scratch that I'm referring to I believe is definately a...

Lately I have noticed more and more Lunar coins poping up that have scratches and milk spots ..... but these coins are out of untouch rolls Would you still pay a premium for a lunar coin that has a mint defect.... At the end of the day, I understand that its always going to be easier to...

$1800 in fees and penalties - WOW Without knowing what type of investment you have your 401K in. Just increase your credit card limt or apply for a personal loan ....... pay it off when your investment full due. Sounds a lot cheaper than losing $1800 for a $3500 trip..... IMO very unlikely that...

Maggie, I would like to donate the Koi coin that I have paid for and that you are holding on to for me. Little miss has just told me about Kaz and Em and our hearts go out to the family.

IMO its all a cycle. The only way that I can see the perth mint destroying the true lunar series , is if they break their promise and re-mint previous year lunars - all sizes to their full mintage figures similar to the kooks ( believe this cant happen....but no guarantees ) As we have seen...

Personally, I believe the Perth Mint should have used the funnel web spider as the first coin in series two of the deadly and dangerous series (if they were contenplating a second series) Then it may have carried some merit........and the potential to fetch a high premium being the first coin...

And here's somemore - ( ebay : item number 400352258891 ) The family of 1g coins just keeps growing

Sales Summary 1) buyer buzzs coins from seller and pays straight away - true SS style 2) buyer receives below standard coins and seller agrees to refund - true ss style ......good so far 3) buyer returns coins with tracking # true ss style 4) Seller offers partial refund now and part later -...

Interesting reply:rolleyes: I'm familiar with the sales thred. Putting it politely....when you ask for a premium on bullion.....you exspect a perfect coin Once a bullion coin is damaged , in my opinion its only worth spot....hence that what I would sell / buy it for . Also, as a stacker, there...

How Bizzarr, You release a series of coins with a limited mintage of 5000, yet you only privy mark a hand full of the coins. :/

Hi All, Can anyone who has a fabulous 12 or 15 silver coin collection confirm that each coin has the appropriate privy mark - f12 or f15 or is it only two or three that display the mark.....like the maple and kangaroo.. Have seen a couple of individual coins lately from the fabulous 12 series...

I personally beleve theres a place for ebay.. BUT agree unless you have a red back spider coin....selling PM on ebay is hardly worth the time and effort. By the time you remove all the fees plus your time for postage and handling....you end up losing more often than not (yes talking from...

I appreciate you taking the time and look forward to seeing your results
