Silver rounds

I have 12 silver rounds that were minted at different NON U.S. mints. They all have somewhat of a different size to them and different obverse/reverse than each other. My question is, do any of these or any other silver rounds have value other than spot?

Thanks for any help

Hey thanks, I will check mine and see if any were minted there. Does it matter which ones or just any of the rounds that they minted?

 

Some collectors will pay more for "art bars", and sometimes for rounds. post some pics of your rounds and we will let you know.

 

Tried to upload some pics and it said file was too large? How can i fix this?

 

not sure, someone else will have to chime in here

 

You can decrease the bytes by changing the file type. What kind of computer are you on?

 

Ok since I am too stupid to post pictures I will try and type out what I have.

I have 3 rounds that have the head of a woman with 13 stars around the edge and says World Wide Mint Inc. 1981 on the obverse. On the reverse there is an eagle standing and it says American Eagle .999 Fine Silver 1 oz.

I have 1 round that has a Indian head on the obverse and on the reverse it is a buffalo and says One Troy Ounce .999 Fine.....also this round has a proof like finnish

I have 1 round that looks like a copy of a seated liberty on the obverse and the reverse says 1 Troy Ounce SILVER .999 and is a copy of the seated liberty dime reverse

I have 1 round that has a big number 1 centered on the obverse and says Finest Purity Honest Weights Tri-State Refining and on the reverse is a eagle and a bell and says 1776-1976 .999 Fine Silver 1 troy ounce God Bless America

I have 9 rounds with a flying eagle with rays and says Silver Eagle on the obverse and the reverse says Sunshine Minting ONE Troy Ounce .999 Fine Silver


Any of these ring a bell?

Thanks

Since minting a 1 oz round is a value-added process, they should always be worth more than 1/1000th of a 1000 oz bar, which is what spot is based on. How much more valuable will depend on how pretty they are, what condition they're in, and the popular familiarity of the mint (trustworthiness). If you can ever get anything smaller than a 1000 oz bar for spot price, and be reasonably sure about its integrity, then you've got yourself a great deal.

 

You can download a free image editor such as Picasa (basic) or GIMP (advanced). In either case, you can resize your images, change the image quality, and used a compressed format.

 

Or you can upload them to a 3rd party website and link us the pics

I use http://imgur.com/

 

You could open the image in mspaint.exe if it's a Windows machine. If the file is bigger than your screen, go to the Image menu, choose Sketch/Skew, and try a 50% reduction. Save the file as a 'png' to get a small file size without losing any image quality.

 

or upload to photobucket and post the link here. its free, and fairly easy.
someone already mentioned a 3rd party hosting site, but i figured i would mention photobucket too because it is pretty popular.

EDIT: Photbucket is currently not allowed on this site due to virus issues.
