Coin Collectors' Corner

@Judi9877 the investment coin or bullion coin can be sold to two different groups of people. Of course you have your collectors, who if they are trying to complete a set, like I am, would be willing to pay more for the coin. The other way of selling it, is to places that buy and sell gold. You have to be careful here as not all of these places will give you the same. What you would look for is a place that would buy it from you at spot price. This is the current market value of silver, at any given time. For example places like cash converters would pay $2 under spot price per oz. So basically I am buying these for my daughter's inheritance hoping that the silver price keeps going up like it has been. And she would be able to get cash as she needs it.

oh wow, lucky you!! @Mustang67 do you know how much it's roughly valued at?

[Mustang67]

@rav3n I haven't got a clue what they are valued, only what I have paid for them.

[rav3n]

that's fair @Mustang67 regardless of its value, it looks sick!

@Mustang67 , I got 2 $2 coins with Prince charles from 2025.. they are so shiny that I don't want to use them!

[Mustang67]

@tyme I would put them aside in a Saflip or a 2 x 2 card holder to keep them safe.

I currently have my coins in the self adhesive 2 x 2 cards, but I am going to change my collection over to the Sadie's as I have heard they offer better protection. https://www.thepurplepenny.com/articles/how-to-use-saflips/

@Harmonium I like the pretty and delicate and dainty things in life, so there is no reason why my coins can't reflect that. Lol

My Aussie Big Things 2 order arrived today.

And I found an Australia Zoo Sumatran Elephant 1oz Silver Investment Coin on the Australia Zoo website for a good price. And because I was a new subscriber, I received another $8 off. So I got myself a bargain. 

I only have one coin left to get which is the Australia Zoo Sumatran Tiger 1oz Silver Investment Coin. Since this was the first Coin released in 2020 it is tricky to find one at a reasonable price. So not sure that the full set is achievable. I just have to decide is it worth paying the higher cost.
