I think I'm going to order a 10oz Kookaburra for $330 shipped. Is that a good price? My local store sells them for $350 Thanks |

In my opinion, with silver well below $30 right now I think the price is a bit high. However, with coins like this, there is always a premium on them, so I think you would be able to recoup most of the cost when you decide you want to sell it. Looking at ebay's completed listings, a 2012 10oz Kookaburra sold for $489.99 on May 11th. http://www.ebay.com/itm/2012-Austra...t_500wt_1182I would personally stick with a Kookaburra or Koala, because they have been around for a long time, and always command a premium. I think all of the Dragon coins are just a phase that people are in right now, and the premiums won't last, in my opinion anyway. Hope this helps, CC. |

Are you buying this coin from SilverGoldBull? They have them for $319. I don't know what shipping costs, but I assume it is one of the cheapest around, considering they are also in Canada.

I REALLY don't like these monster coins. I have only recently started to think of doing an ATB 5 oz set, have maybe 6/11 so far released. The only reason for ATB set is because I fancy myself a patriot in my own mind and it seems like I must buy almost anything the US Mint puts out, esp. anything silver. That being said I would be on the lookout for a nice brand name 10 oz bar, maybe even and old poured Engelhard or JM. You will pay a bit more then you probably think you should but don't sweat a couple dollars. In the scheme of life whats an extra $20 on a bar silver you plan on holding for 25 years? |

10oz 2012 kook coins. $ 314 cad plus $20 for shipping. Silver gold bull. I just bought a 10oz ntr bar from them today when spot hit 26.90usd. Total cost was 314.58 cad shipped. I looked at nice collector bullion too but decided I would save those for the 1oz and just tried to get the best price for a 10oz er. I would say do the bar.

I agree with both you guys. The reason I'm looking at the 10oz coin is because I've already bought all engelhard and JM bars I'm my local dealer for a nice price. I would love to get ATB 5oz coins, but cant find them anywhere. I think ill try an get the 10oz coin for a cheaper price at my local store and save on shipping. |

Sounds like you just want some variety to shake up the stack. If that's the case then the 10oz kook will be a nice addition. Pic when you get the chance! Cheers!

Shoot me a PM if you ever want me to pick up something for you. I don't have much experience shipping into Canada but a good friend of mine is the local post master and he would walk me through it. You seem like a good guy through your post. And mods please don't take offense this post I am only trying to help a "forum friend" out.
No worries, good luck stacking.

I would be more in favor of 13 Morgan dollars personally since a single coin or bar of 10 toz might be a bit much to sell at once if needed. |
