Anybody pick up some first of the year bullion this week? Here's my week's worth...
6 misc ounces of bullion... and 4 Disney proof rounds from 1987. 2 of them have some nice edge toning.

    Weiss, That Engelhard pic is off the charts!
    I still love that 10oz Engelhard I bought from you a couple of months back!

    Slow week for me. Just some random date ASEs that MCM had on sale last week.

    They're proof silver rounds from sunshine mint. They're really well done for generic bullion.

    I like both of the Engelhard photos, each has its merits.
    I can almost hear the sound of 'playing slinky' with the rounds.
    I enjoy your photographic contributions, very nice and real.

    Purchased this Silver Eagles Nest at the FUN Show last week and had three offers from Dealer's to buy before I brought
    this home to enjoy for a while. These sets are very collectable and were minted in 1969 by Silver Eagle Sales in Walla Walla, WA. There were only 1000 sets made and this is the nicest I've seen !

    Those Silver Eagle sets are really nice.... never saw them before. If I saw that set at a show, I would be really tempted... heck, at a show, I would have purchased it. Cheers, RickO

    As small as they are, those Eagles still manage to stand out on their own merit, even when drowning in silver :smile:
