I'm in Perth..what should I buy at the mint?

1kg bar i guees - was 970 when i bought earlier today - works out to be just over $30/ozt
(100ozt bar works out to be just under $30/ozt - not much difference)
 
They still have 1 Oz 2012 Kooks for sale at the PM bullion desk - you cant get them online anymore via the mint - over the counter only.
 
Ask what "old Lunar" coins they have in the system at the bullion counter - you might be surprised. I picked up 3 x 1oz gold Lunar Series I coins in September - Rabbits and Rats. They get oddball coins in there sometimes.

What sort of premium did they put on them? Or was it the same as the other gold bullion 1oz they were selling?
 
Exactly the same price as 1oz gold dragons bought the same day.

At the time they had heaps of 2oz gold lunar Dogs in stock, I just didn't have the cash to get one.
 
1: How much money have you got to invest? (PS: No need to tell us this.)
2a: What time-frame are you looking at?
2b: Have you got kids you could bequeath (some of) your metals to?

Its best to have both. And if you can look at long-term investment (eg. minimum 10 years), then silver is JUST GREAT. You need to do some good solid research into silver though, so that you don't get scared by the violent action. At this time, silver is kinda like the skinny little kid at school who often got the stuffing beaten out of him, and this can be scary, unless you understand WHY you are investing in silver.

I like the idea of "goldpelican", and recommend that you pick up whatever old lunars they have lying around. Many people here on this forum, if we were there in Perth, would take this advice. So do it... start your collection with old lunars :)
