World Coins: Your Newest Acquisition!

Found this a a good price for 1/2 oz. of silver. I don't have many coins from South Korea but this might be a start. Has a minor scratch even thought it was still sealed in the original capsule.

This is the new 50th Anniversary Silver version of the South Africa Krugerrand. I think this will be an instant collector coin even with a high mintage of 1,000,000.
Mine came in a black bag with Coa. Hefty premium on this coin.

I too VERY much like the Owl!

 

I like the owl, but the text on the obverse bug me enough. I have it on a watch list and we'll see how I feel about in a week.

 

This is not the most recently acquired world coin I have obtained. Perhaps it is the penultimate. I just adore the sweet little Kiwi on the reverse and since I don't have any other coin from New Zealand, I am happy to have this one.

 

Had to add this to the collection. I have been collecting this series since it first came out in 2007. This is a special edition with a Kangaroo Privy. I hope the Perth Mint doesn't get carried away like Great Britain with the various privys and edge-marks on the Britannias.

Beautiful, @Nas. Every time I look at my Olympic commemorative coin, I wish it depicted some type of skating! It has a rower.

 

Like the Australian Koala!

 

Beautiful pirate treasure!!!!! Is there a way we can see what the edge looks like?

 

Glad you got that one, Rob. It's a beauty!

 

Thanks. This is my first olympic commemorative coin. poland really have nice olympic coins.

 

Still have a big love for Medieval coins, picked up this common type of Louis I since I didn't own any of him.

That's a really lovely coin. Congratulations

 

I went with 2 rolls of nickels and 10 pennies at the usual bank (machine rolled) and 10 at the other bank in town (customer rolls). 3 pennies into the first machine wrapped got me a zinc 82D small date.
