Just bought my first 5 ounce Libertad last year. Its a 2010 as well. How many were minted? This is one of the most beautiful coins I have ever seen! i took it to work and looked at it under the Micro-view. The detail is astonishing, even more so magnified!

 

Jesus that thing is big

 

the mintages vary from year to year. I wonder if they're listed somewhere?
is it in the world coin book some people mention. sorry i forget the name right now

 

Heck yeah! I like the 5 oz. Libertad better than the new AtB 5-ouncers.

 

Some numbers right here bu ounce size

 

LOL. I was going to say something along those lines. These coins are better and the ATB are overpriced and overhyped.
I can wait.

 

interesting. these coins look so good it's hard to tell if they're proof or not.

 

I bought mine (pictured above) from APMEX, listed as a Proof version. The uncs do not have mirrored fields, not even near that finish from the ones I've seen.

 

just looked at my receipt, so is mine

 

Don't know if you can compare to ATB. I call it the "shotgun effect". Throw enough coins out there and there is bound to be a couple nice designs. However, as stated before, these are totaly awesome. Don't know if I should even say this but it's true: If you magnify it a little, you can actually see the nipple inside the aerola..... Haha! It's true! (No I'm not a perve but I am a guy and I had to look!) Great detail!

 

LOL! Have to spend a lot of money on an SLQ to get anything approaching anatomical correctness in US coinage.

 

Haha! The guys at work liked it but I still can't get them interested in silver or coinage for that matter. If that didn't work, I don't know what will........lol

 

Well there are some pretty racey silver art bars out there if you look for them... they cost a bit more than spot though.

 

I think I've gone far enough...... At work and on this thread.....lol. I will stick to trusted government silver and engalhard, no silver art bars here. lol

 

Ditto.

 

Thats one of my favorite designs. I think its purty

 

Hey nice "hockey puck." I like em. Here is a mongo 4 ouncer from Panama.

 

making me want to get one. I have a couple of 1 oz's but bigger is better.

 

those are some great coins...i have a hard enough time trying to find someone who sells one ounce libertads, let alone 5 ouncers
