Hello all, I thought it would be cool to start a thread about collectable silver rounds, or bars, as well as post pics. I'm referring to non-denomination pieces, not actual so-called currency like SAEs, Maples, etc... I'll start with a newer release. The Destiny knight, or Destiny 2oz. series. I really like these, and believe they are worth the premium. Next up in the series is the Dragon. There are many to choose from, so let's see them. (sellers pics.)
Here's another new one. The four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. From Provident. First in the series. (Sellers pics)
HO HO HO. Sorry for the ugly plastic sleeve cover, I'll see if I can find an airtite in better condition.
I have a soft spot for these as well. Ridiculous premiums on them, but then again, it's not just bullion to me.
True, they're much cooler than rabbits, horses, ox, etc... I just ordered the Queen's beasts (with the special deal from the other thread), so I'll take a shot of those when I get them in hopefully this week.
Number two in the series. They share the same reverse. Again, they come in BU, antique, and proof. The antique version is best IMO, but costs quite a bit more. You can purchase directly from the producers at " THEDESTINYCOIN.COM" fast, free shipping (over $100) friendly, and communication was excellent. Check em out.
You can see the prices at the site I listed above. But I'll tell you what the BU ones are going for. First was the Raven( called Manchurian Knight, or such) $52. The second one "Dragon" $55. Total $107 delivered. Seems a bit steep I know, but they are 2oz., and high relief, very detailed. If you split the price to 1oz. Is only $26/$27.50. For some reason, it just seems better then. LOL. Anyway, better than the Queens Beast coins. IMO. Check out their website for more details.
I will for sure check that out, question, is that premium still there when you go to sell ? i just bought a 1 OZ Silver Krugerrand and again probably paid to much around $54 and this is strictly a bullion coin but still real pretty.
These are limited to 10,000 BU, and 2500 for the other types. Although a new company, they have very strong offerings. They don't however have the fan base of the Krugerand. Nobody can predict the future though. These are collector rounds, not a generic. I wouldn't advise purchasing these if premium over spot is the most important reason. They do have 2oz. of silver for the intrinsic value though. Again, this is a new company. Will they continue the quality, and subject matter? Only time will tell. Basically,$7-$8 per oz. Over spot now. I've seen much worse for much more. Most importantly, enjoy the high relief details, and quality, some of the best I've ever seen. I will say that after having them in hand, I really wish I would have gotten the 3pc. sets, with all finishes. Oh yeah, they do have 1rst strike sets (first 100 struck) with matching serial numbers, if that's your thing. Happy hunting. John.
i like the idea that there limited in production, that always helps the price stay steady or go up over time, to many companies produce way to much just to Inflate there own profit margins not really caring about it in any other way
