Whatsup guys--- Just got my APMEX order in today and I am very pleased! I got Britannias in 2010, 2011, and 2012. I also got a 2011 Mexican Libertad and added a 1993 ASE to my book. I really like the proof like finish on the 2011 and 2012 britannias, but my gosh it makes them difficult to photograph!     This has me up to 26oz of silver and counting! 16 ASE's and 10 random world coins. Only started a month ago so I'm on a good pace ;) |

Beautiful Coins! I don't know what it is about the Libertad's and Britannia's, but they are probably my favorite bullion coins.

I own two of the four above, and love the two I don't have. I did once on the standing version in the to coin ASE set, and I have never owned the flag one as of yet.... Can NEVER go wrong with nice Brittannia's an Libertads. I believe they are popular for the long run, always a solid collection piece or investment, well done.... |

I'm right there with Silverhawk74; I own two of those coins and hope for the opportunity to pick up the rest.
I have to say brilliant purchase! The Britannia are simply beautiful coins. I also have a recent Libertad with the current "winged victory" but I don't have the original design (1995 and earlier).

I also have the bottom two designs, but different dates. The Britannia's are some of the most beautiful coins in the world. The same can be said of the Mexico Winged Liberty, or Angel, as I call her.

I don't have those but have plans to add two of those to my collection - 2012 issues.
As of Britannia's - 2-3 month ago got 3 of them in pawn shop for $38 a piece ... they were UNC/BU: 2000,2001,2002.

Those were excellent buys, bekiz. I actually remember buying a fairly rare 1998 Britannia proof from a seller in Japan and I have no desire to part with it.

Nice pickups. I really like the 2012 Britannia, but haven't gotten around to pick one up. Really nice buys.

Amazing low prices there Bekiz on those nice. Being that you are in Japan, perhaps they fly under the radar over on that side of the world, hence maybe not being as appreciated as much as they are in Europe an North America....
If that is the case, keep your eyes pealed for more at that great low price....

Very nice additions, Dixon. Well done, indeed.  Your pictures are amazingly good. The effort you put into taking them is quite evident and much appreciated. Congrats on both the purchase and on the great pics.  |

Which makes it about $60. Overall bullion coins bear a premium of $7-10 over spot at least. Waiting for the international coin convention here in Tokyo in the beginning of May. May be I'll spot something valuable and add to my collection. P.S. Now I am starting to remove some pre 1964 halfs and canadian commemorative silver coins and replace them with bullion coins I like and may be some gold. Got about 30 oz asw of those. |
