........palpable. 🤪 Waiting on a secondary market bar I bought online. I love the mystery of not knowing what I'm going to get. 🤣

Aztec Sun Stone 2oz stacker - by Korea Minting and Security Printing Corporation (KOMSCO)

1 troy ounce = 31.1034768 grams = 480 grains (1 troy oz = 480 grains).

Spot silver = $75 per troy ounce, so per grain: Calculation: $75 ÷ 480 = $0.15625 per grain

Answer: $0.15625 (15.625 cents) per grain.

Living in Australia and I got this set (2.87 oz ASW) for the equivalent of 136 USD. Definitely real silver, it’s just very toned and missing the 25c piece which is base metal anyways

The $5 is very heavy (apparently it has 1.25 oz of silver inside it) and it’s bigger than most of the coins I have. It’s way bigger than the crowns and even the Perth mint kangaroo bullion coins

In terms of the design I like the flamingo $2 the best but the 50c with the swordfish looks pretty as well

I’m not sure how other stackers treat their base metal coins that were acquired incidentally with silver sets, but I usually don’t care about them and consider selling them to bring down my average dollar cost. I’ll actually keep these because their shapes look special (and 15c is a weird denomination). Plus it’s kind of funny seeing Patrick next to Spongebob’s house.

I recently bought an encased Geiger but didn’t want to open it so I bought a loose one. I really like looking at and handling my stack. I’ve been waiting months to get a good price because they sell with a high premium, then I find 2 at once. The loose one £85 and encased £95. They relate beautiful pieces.

This is a beautiful coin. The reverse proof with its details I love.
Mintage: 199,116

If so, is it worth more than spot ?

Ive recently been trying to encourage my kids into investing some of their chore money with high incentive.

For example these are each about ¼oz of .999 silver. I got them for about 15 bucks each. My plan is to offer my kids 1 of these for 5 bucks as an incentive to save their money. Realistically they would be making 10bucks and saving money

Do you think they want 5bucks of candy or do you think they are gonna take the silver?

Was fortunate enough to be able to pick up 15 ASE’s, and 3 other rounds and 5 mercury dimes.

Also got my first decent size gold. 1/4oz Brittania

Three silver coins stuffed into it for three times the protection!!!

Bought these off a guy $10. Should I open one?
