[QUOTE="Gam3rBlake, post: 7959739, member: 115909"]As a proud American I will always consider ASEs, AGEs and Gold Buffalos to be the very best bullion coins. But I have to say I have been very impressed with the quality of Australian Perth Mint bullion. One thing I love about the Perth Mint bullion (Kangaroos, Kookaburras, Emus etc.,) is that the Perth Mint always seems to put a little bit more extra silver in their bullion than all the other countries I’ve tested including the US. The average weight per coin after testing my 2x tubes of 2020 American Silver Eagles was 31.28 grams. The average weight of my Perth Mint silver bullion coins was 31.41 grams. I wasn’t surprised that China was the country that put the least amount of extra silver in their bullion coins. I weighed the older 1 oz bullion coins China minted prior to switching to 30 grams and many of them didn’t even contain 1 full troy oz let alone have extra. True the extra Australia put in is not much extra and most people would absolutey not notice without a scale but I do respect the fact that the Perth Mint is extremely generous with the metal content of their bullion. What about you guys? Not counting your home country which foreign government bullion do you like the best? :)[/QUOTE]
