Just received this 5oz silver Zodiac coin direct from the Perth Mint.

Very straight forward ordering and amazing quality.

Only slight problem is the FedEx delivery guy forgot to charge me the import duty.

Not sure what to do about the 20% import duty shall I send it direct to Jeremy Hunt at number 11?

wow gorgeous coin!  Great colouring

The occasional coin will appreciate the vast majority won't 

of those that do appreciate, is it just random? in that collectors happen to like the design for whatever reason?
Or do they sometimes do limited mintage that drives the price up? 

Hi all,

I was interested in your thoughts regarding the non-bullion precious metals that the Royal Mint produces- what drives their value? Is it mintage figures, design, being part of collector sets etc?

Interested in starting collecting but worried that it will be a big loss maker over time...

I find the first issue of the Czech Lion in the form of 10 oz. very beautiful. With a mintage of only 200 pieces very difficult to find on the market. I am very happy that I can call one of them my own. Greetings from Maxe.

 

 

 

 

Wow what treasures!

Some lovely and extremely low mintage coins today.  Thank you @SilverMike for parting with the Sixpences.  Beautiful coins in 22kt Rose Gold, .999 Gold & the traditional Silver.  2021 was the first year of issue of Gold Sixpences- we’ll have to wait several years to find out the actual mintages of the Gold Sixpences, but I suspect the RM won’t have produced very many.   
A nice Monarch, and also to complete my Platinum Jubilee collection, a Gold 50p Set- an extremely low issue of just 70 Sets. Maximum mintage of the Bergdahl Obverse is just 580 and only 170 of the Jody Clark Obverse- the other 100 issued in the Gold Annual Set.

 

love 'em

Picked up the latest release of the Silver African Leopard from Scottsdale Mint, a coin for the Republic of Ghana. Been going since 2017 and for those who may remember, there was a mint error of the coin denomination. Should’ve been 5 cedis however it had a face value of 100 cedis by mistake. Also included a pic of the rest of the series 

Such beautiful design,

Went into the Perth Min today and took some photos of the beautiful gold nuggets they have on display and for sale. Did not get any of these but did walk away with three gold tigers (one 1/2oz and three 1/10/oz). 

love 'em!

Today I received a nice pair of 20 Franc coins for my LMU collection. The 1830s and 40s in general are scarce years, so I was thrilled to be able to complete this year/mint pair.

1842-W (Lille) - mintage of 21,600

1842-A (Paris) - mintage of 70,666

Unbelievably low total mintage of 20 Franc coins for the year 1842 of under 100,000 pieces.

 

 

 

 

I guess as they are the largest, the greater the quantity you buy the lower the premium
