Anyone know where I could buy a 500 gram or kilogram bag of 40% silver 10 Öre coins? Main point being to get the price per coin down.
Not particular what country they're from, I believe Sweden and Denmark and perhaps a few other countries have identical weight and purity coins.
If this is in the wrong section, I apologize.

Finding these in change or other silver coins is always good deal. I remember when I was living in the USA, you could actually find these in circulation. Who knows how many silver coins I spent as kid on soda, candy, or in pinball machines.
People make youtube videos of them searching coin rolls for silver still, but of course it's got to be rarer to find them than it was.

other mints? or other members?
Other people with experience of pressburg mint and milkspotting, or lack thereof. :-)

I find pressburg in general quite good, only my personal experience though
Thanks for your input.
Can I ask, what have you heard from others?

Hi all,
Anyone have experience with the pressburg mint's silver that can tell me if they tend to milkspot or not?
I'd rather not buy them if they do.
Thanks

Yes that's right.
Seems kind of expensive compared to the Malta.

I've seen this one but it didn't really spark any interest.
Knights of the past are so much nicer.
What's Knights of the past? Is that from Germania?

You could always use a remailing service.
I have one in the UK for a dealer who won't ship outside the UK to get me pre-decimal silver to the US. They place the order and it gets mailed to them in the UK, they repackage it and ship via UPS tom me in the states.
Could be one in Malta that would send to you in the UK.

Found this site helpful, lots of pictures too.

I asked a dealer about it, and he said it's too hard to test it. Makes sense to me.

They're from the central bank of Malta, a small european (mediteranean?) country, made by the pressburg mint.
I really like the design, but they're almost silver rounds for all the reputation Malta has as a government backing coins, and oh, 5 whole Euros face value, hahah.

Hear me out here,
In the event of hyperinflation, we here in the US have dimes, quarters and halves, and of course ounces of silver, but no nickel, well unless you count the war nickel, but it's more silver than half of a dime.
So in counting, you'd have 10c 20c 25c 35c 45c etc, but no 5c or 15c.
War nickel is 0.05625 Troy Ounce, Dime is .0715 of which half would be .03575, so it's way too much to be a proper nickel to, the dime, by silver value I mean.
However, there is a coin which is about half the price of a dime and just over half the silver value: the 1920-1946 UK Sixpence 0.04546 Troy Ounce, still a bit too much, but you can buy them buy the Kg from the UK so the price is right.
Australian or UK 92.5% threepences would be better but they're way too expensive the 50% sixpence can be had for about $1.29 whereas the best I could find for the 92.5% threepences was around $2.38 to $2.54 nearly the same as an American 90% dime.
If the situation is hyperinflation but not end-of-the-world catastrophe then people could look it up on their phone but I still don't know if people would be willing to accept it.
What do you guys think?
Need help sourcing a coin, please.
