    I'm Buying!

    This is easier said than done, when the wife has a different opinion and wants to cut losses. :( By the way, I don't buy this whole silver shortage argument anymore. When people were buying like crazy when silver went to almost $50, was there any shortage in physical silver? No! Now that...

    Lunar Death?

    That's the whole idea. :) And why it is probably good to buy when prices are lower.

    Australian Lunar Series II - 2oz Silver Proof Twelve-Coin Collection

    They are sold out at the Perth Mint, they will not sell any more of them. They are definitely rarer than most other lunar coins.

    2 oz ANDA silver snake

    4 pages of recent releases at the mint and none of the coins sold out. It looks like they get what they deserve and they have only themselves to blame.

    S1 vs S2 coins

    Oh, and series 2 started with the idea of having 2 animals per coin, while series 1 only has 1 animal. I think the tiger was an exception as for some reason you are not supposed to show two tigers (that's what I vaguely remember). I don't know why they forgot about this idea when the dragon...

    S1 vs S2 coins

    The pictures of Series 2 are the proof versions. The bullion versions are the same design, just without the mirrored background. For series 1 the proof versions have a different design, but also a mirrored background. Series 2 coins also have a larger diameter. Some of the Series 2 coins...

    Perth Mint mintage policy

    Across the board, gold proof, silver proof, coloured gold and silver. Some numbers over 4 times higher than previously mentioned.

    Perth Mint mintage policy

    It looks like they have been reminting like crazy in the last few months. Some of the numbers went up MASSIVELY. Not happy! :(

    2 oz ANDA silver snake

    Surprising insight Matthew. Weren't you only recently saying that a coin with missing COA is worth much less than one with COA? :o

    Ebaay gold coin scam?

    A few weeks ago someone on ebay was selling lots of gold proof coins in a short period of time, worth well over 50k. Some of them sold for close to or even under spot. I was very tempted to bid, but I thought it is a bid dangerous if someone gets paid over 50k on his paypal account before...

    Lunar Death?

    Sometimes you have to sell at a loss, particularly if there is a better investment. So if you believe lunars are dead, then it is best to sell them at a loss. Also, $700 is still a nice profit for many. How much did the mouse coins sell for back in 2007?

    Lunar Death?

    For those who think lunars are dead and are desperate to get rid of them, I'll help you with your 1oz non-privy, non 2013 rolls for $700 per roll. That's about 25% over spot! :)

    Lunar Death?

    Obviously the lunars are not as dead yet as some people might want us to believe :)

    Lunar Death?

    Link? The last snake 3-coin sets I saw on ebay Germany sold for 300 Euro and the last 1oz Dragon proof for 140 Euro. What 3-coin set are you selling for $315?

    Lunar Death?

    I agree that lots of people have been put off by the Perth Mint and are not buying Perth Mint coins anymore or at least not as much as before. Having said that, I think the standard lunars (bullion, 1oz proof, 3-coin proof set, 1kg proof) are still selling reasonably well compared to the...

    Lunar Death?

    i think at the moment is definitely a good time to get some lunar bargains. Not many buyers. I think this is true in general, not just for lunars. You should look at sold items not items still on offer. We also have some expensive lunar items for sale in Australia that no one is going to buy...

    Silver to rise soon to $150 / oz

    Just think of it that way: How much physical silver is sitting out there in the form of coins and bars? What was the purchase price of all this physical silver? I would like to see a chart where x is purchase price and y is amount of silver purchased at this price and currently still held by...
