^ Another low mintage year for the 5 oz Libertad....good for you!

Anyone has the 1999 5 oz Libertad? If I recall, that's a key date (among the lowest mintage).

I found one at the end of the rainbow...

But the previous 1996 5 oz is one of the most common. 20,000 BU, 1,200 proof.

2014's 1oz libertad comes in a tube of 25 now.

What about the 2oz ones if anyone knows?

Can you confirm that 2014 is the first year of 25 in a tube ? Are they now following the Maples

From my observations back in 2013, they transitioned from 500 coin bank bags (monster box like) to 450 coin bank bags (with 25coin tubes then.
 
Still waiting on more sets and all the CoAs, but this will do for now ;-)

Those Libertads sure are beautiful, but probably not the best option for someone like myself who fondles coins a bit too much as it is.
 
I've been collecting some Libertads (relatively hard to get in Aus) but for something different, I got this somewhat dirty and dinged up 1980 Mexican coin earlier this week for $20 (AU). Its got scales on one side and I was told it is not pure silver (0.925) so I maybe paid a bit too much, but its interesting and I haven't seen one in Australia before.

All together, here's what I have managed to acquire this week. It is surprisingly hard to get anything other than 1oz Libertads here so I'm rather proud of this achievement (more luck/circumstance than anything).

Mexican coin - 1980
1/2 oz Libertad - 2015
2 oz Libertad - 2015
5 oz Libertad - 2011
