Gold swans, birds of paradise...bullion or not?

[Thomas78]

I bought these as bullion... as I am tidying up my collections, would these be keepers or not?  And if you sell them, what would be fair pricing.

Me ? Bullion. I could never understand the fuss about the swan coin at the time....very simplistic boring piece of art. Others and the market may disagree with me but that is my personal opinion.

These are fairly recent 1oz Perth Mint coins that they marketed as bullion coins with a fairly modest premium over spot. Mintage for each coin was 5,000. The Perth mint sold out of these a while ago but there are two of the 2017 swans available on Australian eBay, one for A$2,200 and the other A$2,295.

The 2018 Swan is showing as "out of stock" on the Perth Mint site but they do show the price at A$1,919 per coin.

Spot or 98% of spot to a good dealer;  spot +3% to the forum;  spot +10% to anyone else or fleeBay.
GS.be is asking 15% over the 2019 Britannia for the 2017 Swan so that's maybe a guide to likely premium.
Finding a buyer is another challenge.
