<p>[QUOTE="MadMartigan, post: 1820696, member: 58925"]I know there is a lot of popularity for the Silver Eagles but I have been thinking of expanding. I am more of a type coin kind of collector and just doing one coin over and over bores me a little. So I thought it might be fun to buy a blank silver round Dansco Album and just do all the governmental bullion. I already have a Maple Leaf, a Panda, a Eagle and a Libertad. I was going to pick up a Kookaburra and a Philharmoniker next. That would give me US, Canada, China, Mexico, Australia and Austria. But an album with just 6 coins is kind of boring too. I was thinking of doing first and last year of issue that would bump me to 12 coins. I guess I could do 3 coins each country and go to 18. I was just looking for more options and more countries.</p><p><br /></p><p>A quick google search came up with the Australian Lunar series but that series kind of throws me for a loop. It looks like they make so many different varieties and sizes and weights I wouldn't even know where to start. It follows the Chinese calendar and a dragon would be cool and I guess it could add coins here and there but they are kind of pricey (although I have bought pricey bullion coins before just because I wanted to own one like I own an Old Man Coin from Pawn Stars and would love to get the Chumlee coin and the Old Man was $60 when silver was like $30 an ounce and Chumlee is $65 with silver at $20 an ounce) . Then there is the Russian Saint George the Victorious that looks cool but that looks to be a 2 year coin 2009 and 2010 so that would be the limit of me getting it I guess. Then there is a new Ukraine Archangel Michael and the Kazakhstan Silver Irbis both newer coins without many years. Then there is the United Kingdom Britannia coin which is a must have.</p><p><br /></p><p>Excluding the Lunar coins which have a great variety that would give me several more countries Russia, United Kingdom, Ukraine, and Kazakhstan that would take me to 10. I could add my Pawn Stars coins and thats 11 doubled to 22 not a bad album.
