Hey guys,

I've spent quite a bit of time compiling these kookaburra coin display sets.

'Silver Coins of The Economic Turmoil'.

Let me know your thoughts.. both good & bad.

Best marketing strategy / Retail $ per set etc...



---



~ Each set contains six 1oz mint 999 pure silver coins (encapsulated) in a beautiful black velvet display case.

Each year coin is a symbol of world economic events.

2007 1oz Silver Kookaburra - World stock markets peak in '07.
2008 1oz Silver Kookaburra - World stock markets crash in '08.
2009 1oz Silver Kookaburra - World stock markets bottom, then rally in '09.
2010 1oz Silver Kookaburra - Silver gains 83% in '10 (only beaten by palladium & cotton)
2011 1oz Silver Kookaburra - Silver is starting to become money once again...
2009 1oz American Silver Eagle - First round of US Quantitative Easing (money printing) entering the system in '09.


~ The 5 silver Kookaburra 1oz coins are government issued Australian legal tender produced by The Perth Mint. Many of these coins are now very hard to obtain (sold out at Perth Mint).

~ The 1 American Silver Eagle coin is included because it was the impact of the imploding US economy that has sent shock-waves around the world. Excessive money printing by the US has sent commodities (like silver) soaring.


A maximum of 100 of these display sets will be offered for sale - each individually numbered with third-party certificate.

Set collected & compiled by a third party (SilverSale) not associated with The Perth Mint or US Government.

B-Baron, QE 'announced' in 2008- as far as I'm aware the bulk of QE1 was 'entering' in 2009.

I was aware of this... but thanks for the comment.

Given Australia mostly dodged 2008, why is the Kook considered the representative coin?

Because we are Aussie, and we like Aussie coins. I can assure you if it was mostly ASE I would have people saying...

"Who in Australia is going to buy that?"

:) Thx for comment.
 
I get the concept, but dont think it works that well. If you were charging market bullion prices for the set then it may be attractive, but I cant see how you could add any premium for it.
 
That is what I'm trying to gauge, but thinking $450 + $10 delivery.

Any interested SilverStacker members can have the low or high COA's :)
(no.1 & no.100 not available)

I don't want to turn this into a trading thread, pm or I'll add them to the website later.

Cheers.
 
Clarification, by market bullion price I meant market value, understand the older kooks call a $1 -$5 more than the current years
 
lol, 2 most recent 2007 kook's on ebay

($70.91 + post) & ($65.47 + post)

Let me know where you can buy them for $1 above other kooks, I would like to buy 100,000 :D

agreed, I don't know where HiHo finds any previous years for $1 over current years value.

Find me some dealers please so I can buy some. Or if you are selling Hiho let me know.
 
And I sold 50 x 1oz 2007 Kooks (not to him), at average $48 recently.

And it was hard to sell too! Took me over a month to sell them all.

A large Germany dealer/distributor recently made Perth Mint go back and remint all the previous years so their value has dropped like a rock.

Check out silber-corner.de

2007 1oz Kookaburra is currently 36.49 EUR which includes 7% tax.

That is just under $50 US at $49.6 US. If you manage to get the tax removed that is $46.15 US.

Now of course I can't be 100% sure they ship over to Canada or Australia but if a retail store is asking below $50 for a Kookaburra, you can be sure that Kooks are worth no more than $50.
 
fishball on queue- had been expecting you :P

I'm sorry to hear you sold your coins for below market price.
 
fishball - you have obviously had nothing to do with silber-corner... they do not ship to Australia.

I think at that price your market is definitely ebay. You are not going to get a lot of sales from price conscious stackers here.
Stackers here can build that set for less than $350 so asking them to pay $100 for a case is a big ask.
Anyway good luck with your venture
 
Projack sold 45.15 oz of proof 1995 silver kook last night (1kg, 10oz, etc) for 2000.

Average per oz, 44.3 aud.

Bargain.
