Sorry, too late :D

I've recently moved away from Canberra, but have done a fair amount of shopping at Edlins. Yes, their store prices are high, but check out their auctions. I've gotten some pretty decent deals on silver and gold at the auctions (occasionally, significantly below spot) and occasionally they'll...

I suspect the other biggie hurting this series is the 3-6 other Norse Gods series that are or were being produced at the same time. Sure, this coin is 3 oz and the others are 2 oz, but that only gets you so far.

I'd think this would be almost a trivial exercise for some of the coin grading services that take pictures of the coins that they grade. They've got decent size databases of coin images and the grades to go with each coin. Set up your neural network and start training it. The one complication I...

Before and after? In general, people are ridiculously bad at timing the market. If bullion is your (one of your) choice(s) of investment product the best bet would be to buy on a consistent basis. If prices go shooting up, then you get some of the gain, if prices go plunging down you get some of...

The rings are kind of meh, but I really like the wheel chair coin! For $3, definitely worth picking up a couple.

Downies is still selling them for $60 + shipping...

I suspect the bigger problem is the multiple mints all selling a Norse gods series within a few months of one another. If I remember correctly there are 3 or 4 different 2 oz antiqued silver Norse gods series and a 3 oz series for sale. There simply aren't enough buyers at $200 to $300 a pop to...

Looks like the Mennica Polska Poland Mint is hopping onto the selectively plated fossils on an antiques background bandwagon... http://www.powercoin.it/en/index.php?controller=product&id_product=2111&gclid=CNjwmYOrwMwCFUYGvAodS9ABnA I'm wondering if this means that we can expect to see another 4...

Don't you just make 3 B.S. posts on existing threads to get around the requirement and then start spamming? I wonder if a 24 hour to 3 week wait on creating new threads after creating your account might be more effective. Depending on how advanced their setup is, the increased overhead in...

For a bit of variety, you might try buying palladium coins from some of the auction houses in Canada. Being in Toronto, you have several options. Just hop on over to icollector.com and look at Canadian coin auctions. There's also canadiancoinsandpapermoney.com which occassionally has palladium...

According to Australian Geographic (http://www.australiangeographic.com.au/news/2016/04/were-getting-a-new-$5-note?adbsc=social_20160412_60414016&adbid=10153546533013339&adbpl=fb&adbpr=100614418338), the new $5 bill looks like this: Not sure that I'm a fan of it. The colour of the wattle...

There seem to be a few floating around on eBay for $200 to $270 AUD which would still be a substantial step down in price from 300 euros... http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=hokkaido+1000+yen+coin+silver&LH_PrefLoc=2

This website seems to have a lot of information about it... http://www.mint.go.jp/buy-eng/international-eng/eng_coin_international_prefecture_index.html 300 euros for a 1 oz silver coin that has a maximum mintage of 100,000 coins seems a bit high to me. Other coins in the series are selling for...

No mention of the 2016 Stock Horse in the April Bulletin from Perth Mint. It also isn't mentioned in the partial list of coins being released on May 3rd, but it could be that the it is on the full list that gets released after the April release happens.

How was that part public? The OP said that he would announce when the reserve had been met, but in the end the OP didn't even bother doing that. Just said the result would be private.

He was running an auction where all the bids had to be by PM and so no one but the OP knew what the bidding was at for the coin. ETA: If I remember correctly there was also the always popular mystery reserve price.

Probably worth noting that the regular price according to the price tag is $300....

Reddit Silverbugs have apparently came up with their own Kraken coin.... https://www.reddit.com/r/Silverbugs/comments/48utx8/whats_kraken_yall/ While this is smaller than the Privateers series (only 1 oz), I kind of like this design a bit better; minus the treasure chest [/imgz]

Wasn't really a call. Just wondering if you think silver is still currently breaking out or if you're switching to silver is going sideways.
