5 oz silver original auction

Its a deal, right?

My auction.
Not too great but at least it wasn't a loss.

notwilight · February 22, 2007 7:30AM

I'd say you did great--especially if you're a wild turkey fan.

richardshipp · February 22, 2007 7:31AM

Looks good to me. If you find any more silver at 3 bucks under spot let me know

commoncents05 · February 22, 2007 7:31AM

It sure is! Silver at $14.16 should make these worth about $70.80, you'll make about 10 bucks if you flip it

Looks good to me.

LALASD4 · February 22, 2007 7:36AM

Look good if thay are really silver.

DNADave · February 22, 2007 7:38AM

<< Look good if thay are really silver. >>

Thats it. I'm almost sure that they are.

This looks like one of those fancy presentation boxes sold to enthusiasts at way over spot. These are usually real.

LALASD4 · February 22, 2007 7:47AM

Could be made in China.

Al, I've figured out that you error guys peg the skepticism meter!

fastrudy · February 22, 2007 7:55AM

Not made in China.....no spelling errors.

LALASD4 · February 22, 2007 7:57AM

Not made in China.....no spelling errors. That just means that they were made in a city and not a village.

You did very well. Modern silver medals are doing VERY poorly on eBay lately. Many are going for well below silver value. What has happened is that bullion value has erased numismatic premiums. Collectors seem to be saying that they are not interested in silver at this price level.

lkrarecoins · February 22, 2007 8:02AM

Good deal...you paid $12.20 a coin including shipping.

Dont be scared, you'll be just fine

ricko · February 22, 2007 8:06AM

Good score, silver-wise.... Cheers, RickO

Silver medals from the Alaska Mint and Royal Hawaiian Mint seem to be doing ok though I don't know how they have done historically. Alaska Mint silver art rounds seem to sell for about $40-60 an ounce. One 1989 Royal Hawaiian Mint silver art round recently sold for over $90 though most seem to be sell for around $40. It seems some still have a little numismatic premium while others may not.

The same seller has another box up for sale BIN 55.

Yup,
She originally listed 2 times for $65 starting bid with no takers and then the one with the $55 BIN.

There are still some modern medals that command a premium...but not many. I recently auctioned a consigned 1988 enameled Superman 50th Anniversary one oz. round on eBay for $100.

ttown · February 22, 2007 8:40AM

You suck!

What a deal and a strong seller......

dizzyfoxx · February 22, 2007 9:36AM

Be afraid... be very afraid.

robec · February 22, 2007 9:43AM

Be sure to give it the silver detection bite test just to make sure it doesn't have a chocolate center. I'm sure York, Pa is close to Hershey.

Bikingnut · February 22, 2007 9:45AM

Hmm. I live in York, PA, and I've never heard of the First Capital Mint. Must be good though. It comes with a certificate of authenticity.

BigDaddyz · February 22, 2007 9:51AM

interesting that they listed it under GameCalls->Turkey

Thenewguy · February 22, 2007 10:02AM

How did you find that with it listed under "Listed in category: Sporting Goods > Hunting > Game Calls > Turkey"
Are you a turkey hunter?

Monstavet · February 22, 2007 10:06AM

Mmmmmm.....flying gobbler.....drooooool....
