Worth of a five ounce Aztec round?

[Vai]

Hi all 🙂

 

I quite like the design of the Aztec round from Golden State Mint and am building up a collection of them, so yesterday I went to buy a 5oz copper from eBay. Unfortunately he’s out of stock, but he says he’s got the 5oz silver in.

So as I’m new to this game I thought I’d come here and ask, what kind of price do you think would be reasonable if it’s mint in a capsule and what is the chance of something like this being a fake?

5oz on ebay will go anywhere from 100 to 150 I wouldn't go higher than 150 not with spot price so low at the moment that's 20-25 an oz you've got some protection buying off ebay like you can get it test it magnet specific gravity and so on and if it dose turn out to be fake put a hacksaw through it and return to sender for full refund from PayPal

That's about the price range I was thinking as I've been seeing around £20ish an ounce as a usual price, also good information about the testing and being able to return it for a refund if it's dodgy. Thank you.

the 5oz goes for much more than that. If you have a link I would love it if you shared please.

Not got a link I'm afraid yet, he just mentioned it in a message when he said he didn't have the copper in stock. I've messaged him back and asked for details.

I just meant that I believe the 5 oz silver versions go for quite a bit more than 20-25 and oz. But if you happened to find someone who sells them for that, I would love a link for a purchase.

I'll let you know what I find out.

Got it over the weekend and did a ping & magnet test, seems legit. Beautiful coin with a little spot of tarnishing for £120. I’ve no idea if he’s got any more but I’ll message you the link to his profile on eBay and you can get in touch.

I've got the 1oz bar version of this 120 seems about right imo

the design looks nice but there is something about the finishing on the 5oz which bugged me when you look closer. I had a few of them but sold them all off, maybe abit too cheaply given the price you paid. I kept the 1oz version
