@g33x0r thanks for the pics. Really nice coin. Cant' wait to get mine. Lucky you, no sales tax to Oregon. 😉 

Yeah it's a silver lining I guess, trade-off vs having higher income and property taxes.

Alrighty fellas, I have some proper pictures this time, I took more than one to show off how it looks under different lighting.  

I also took it out of the capsule and these should show the details a lot better without all the capsule scratches in the way.

*cut photos*

Looking good. Shame about the crappy coin capsules though. You'd think for a coin of that value, Apmex would have their business together better.

Makes me wonder whether it'll be the same for me when I'm getting my two 5oz Queen Annes from Auragentum in a week or two, but if those are coming from Apmex too...

I like the pirate topic of the series and the fact that it is struck by Perth Mint quality.

I have never seen skull and bones and skull clouds on their coins,  they are very cool and rare coins!

Don't worry too much for now, some of the more customer conscious dealers are well aware of Apmex grading practices, the removal of all coins from the Perth capsules for sorting, and the lack of respect for the rejected stock. So depending on what they see, some dealers might have suitable replacement capsules on hand to pop the coin in. If you're lucky. Often, they won't want to receive a complaint themselves as though it was them who got dust on the coin and damaged the capsule. The high premium profit margin on a coin like this makes it worth their while doing this if needs be. Good luck with yours, and well done getting two!

Thanks. It mostly was a matter of dumb luck of having been quick enough to purchase some when they were still available at 'just' € 217.

And I'll keep my fingers crossed I'll be lucky enough the coin capsules will be alright in my case. In the worst case scenario, I'll just have to buy some of those myself, which appears to be this one: https://www.hartberger.nl/lindner-s22706500-capsule-1x.html

I got mine from goldsilver.be for that price, just waiting for it to be shipped now. It's the first time i've used them so hopefully I'll have a good experience with them, think i paid £302 all in with shipping.

[ravenshunter]

Wow you guys are quick.

All gone now from auragentum.

Well did you decide to pull the trigger and buy one..........

They went within minutes

[magpie79]

@ravenshunter it was a tough decision but had to drop out of this one , i will probably end up regretting though as i love the new series and did really want one for meself , but mustn't grumble

(this could change though !!! am home from work today and still fighting the urge to proceed on my goldsilver.be basket )

congrats for all that got one though

I'm a little underwhelmed about the capsules, but I'm definitely in love with the coins. 😁

The black flag series will be an epic silver adventure, so I made an adventure movie about the first coins, hope you enjoy the show 😎

Nice video. 👍😊 I'm guessing somebody else will have already pointed out the spelling error at the end? 

[Coolrico]

Still waiting for mine to be despatched, has anyone ordered from goldsilver.be to the UK? just wondering how long i should be expecting delivery to take, i opted for the fedex option.

Hi FunkyChicken, the "spelling error" was remastered in Black Flag part II . The movie got an alternative ending and maybe Hollywood Studios disliked him on you tube because the film and the silver coins are masterpeaces of art, lets have a closer look

Hey Guys, 

I'm selling one of the 5 oz. coins I got from APMEX over on the for sale section for 300.  Here's the link, for US buyers, I would consider shipping international but that would need some additional money for shipping.  I wanted to make sure y'all saw it before I put it up on eBay.  

 

[g33x0r]

That's it folks, APMEX is sold out!  So that took about 10 days, I'm not sure if that's quick or not for a 500 coin mintage.  Thoughts? 

[platinreloaded]

Only the one ounce is sold out at APMEX. You can leave your eMail on APMEX for alert, so maybe they make you later a offer for the 5 ounce Black Flag.

In Europa they are on goldsilver.be still available:  https://goldsilver.be/en/coins/2933-pm-tuvalu-5-oz-silver-black-flag-2019-queen-anne-s-revenge-5.html

[g33x0r]

Well, okay but you can't order the 5 oz on APMEX right now, so how is it not sold out?

[platinreloaded]

They have some coins anywhere but not for direkt sale. They wait till price on secondary market increases. Then they offer the coins for an better price.

Better price means for sure better for APMEX. When the coins are sold out they write it on their homepage. Believe me, I am watshing this way of business at many dealers since years.

I must say it’s a pretty coin. I believe there is a 5oz coin? If anyone has one I might might like to see how that looks. 

[g33x0r]

Yeah, pics above of 5oz in this thread, on this page and on page 8.

In the second of mine you tube movies you can see the 5 oz next to a role of one ounces
