1/20ths at just 5 bucks over melt!



I sat here for the past 25 minutes debating with myself on this one guys. I had the phone in my hand, and BAD intentions! Was gonna order 5 dozen of these considering what a SUPER bargain they are. You cannot find 1/20ths at this small of a premium anywhere my friends! In the end, I decided that what needs to be bolstered is my silver holdings more than the gold. So im now on the look out for cant miss opportunities in Ag.

    Why is there a Queen on one side & a ox/cow with Chinese words on other?

    Its made by the Perth mint in Aussieland. It is part of their year of the "you choose the animal" series based on the Chinese zodiac calendar.

    England, Canada and Australia should have kept young Elizabeth on their coins instead of going to old Elizabeth. They just don't look as good now. image

    I don't think young Elizabeth was anything to get worked up over either. Heh.

    I'm not feeling those. Gold or no, colorozied and tiny just doesn't do it for me. Good choice to skip them image

    I agree. Colorized gold coins have a particular market niche. It's called telemarketing. Hard to sell them in the real world.
