Found this one pound silver Remember the Alamo 1986. In a airtight packaging I'm not taking it out of. I know the photos aren't great but a lot of folks probably haven't seen one. Any special value over bullion ? I think it's beautiful regardless.
@Libertyron There are collectors who might want a medal like this solely for its beauty while others might like it because of its historical reference. However, its value might only be determined by anyone wanting to buy it. If two or more collectors were to be "chasing" it at auction, there is no telling how high it could go. Chris
You'd definitely find some very proud buyer down in Texas! Since we can't shoot an exact price I would say to NOT sell for melt. This is very collectible. YAY! I just broke 1,000 likes!
Nice. I always thought the Texas centennial commemorative was one of the more attractive commemoratives of the period. I bet it is uber sexy blown up to a pound!
One sold in 2008 for $431.25 on Heritage including buyers premium. Silver was approximately 22 an ounce and numbered 0584. So it was a little bit over spot. But honestly it is anyone's guess in the right setting what it would go for.
