I had decided a short time ago I'd like to commit to buying at least 1 - 1oz silver round every year. I may buy more than that of various designs I like but, I'm going to commit to at least the 1 in the first quarter of each year going forward. So, my question is - what are my options for 1oz silver rounds that are released annually. A google search turned up a mess, mostly about ASE's which I'm not all that interested in. I know of the major ones, Kookaburras, ASE's, Panda's, and Maple leaves. What are some others that I can check out, I want to pick one as my MAIN purchase each year. I will add, I'm trying to balance designs I like while limiting the premium over spot. I'm not looking to buy $50-80 1oz rounds. While this isn't a silver stacking endeavor, I still want to be aware of it's spot value vs what I pay. These don't need to be limited to official legal tender, or US MINT or whatever, the only thing is I'd like it to be established as something that's released yearly. Thanks in advance!
Here is a Ebay link: https://www.bing.com/images/search?...D8814E158939EB790&first=1&tsc=ImageHoverTitle British Britannia silver might be good choice ?
Hmmm, oh ya I've seen those as well. That's worth considering. I really like the Kookaburra's from the perth mint but they have more of a premium on them than I want to commit to. I'm still digging around to see what other annual series there are. I had 1oz rounds in mind, but could be something else I suppose...I don't wanna go much more than that though.
Ok so I did some poking around on various sites such as Apmex and this is what I've come up with so far. Feel free to add any I missed and also give your input/opinion about any. Trying to pick one that's a good balance of value and design that appeals to me. -American Silver Eagle -Canadian Maple Leaf -Australian Kookaburra -Australian Kangaroo -Australian Koala -Chinese Panda -British Silver Brittania -Mexican Libertad -South Africa Krugerrand -Austrian Philharmonic -Somalia Elephants So, I'm not sure what else is out there....this was just a quick look based on what I could see was released annually. I really like the stuff coming out of the Perth Mint, especially the Kookaburra, but it seems to also be the most pricey. The Britannia is looking like a decent choice so far. Decisions decisions
Then go with generic silver rounds. Price is closer to spot and just a little over. The ones you listed above will always have a higher premium because everyone is collecting them that stack silver.
Ya, that makes sense to. I suppose the ones that have a premium now will hopefully hold that premium moving forward. So perhaps I should just suck it up and decide what one I like, do 1 of those yearly and then go with generic silver rounds, or even silver bullets (you know, in case of werewolves).
