ashuber New Member Israel 4 Posts	Posted 10/29/2014 04:52 am Are the Kookaburra's with privy marks considered to be of numismatic value - or are they viewed as more of a gimmick? Is there a full list out there with all the Kookaburra privy coins and their mintage? * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

hu5kers77 Valued Member United States 88 Posts	Posted 10/30/2014 1:12 pm Being a Kookaburra collector, I have recently started purchasing the Lunar privy kooks and have found that the older ones (2012 dragon)have a premium already. Going further back, there are some key privy coins with super low mintages and would be great to have, at the right price. I do believe that they offer a numismatic value.

allranger Pillar of the Community United States 1391 Posts	Posted 10/30/2014 4:34 pm Some of them have lower mintages and do command a bit of a premium over spot at my LCS. Some of them are rather gimmicky. I have one that has a privy of the New Jersey State Quarter. It is low mintage, but it still feels hokey. Report this Post to the Staff

omxfl Pillar of the Community United States 1026 Posts	Posted 01/07/2015 10:25 am It's nothing but marketing by the PM to try to sell more of the same. But I for one have collected all of them thus far. My main source has been APMEX and if you buy them when they are first released you get them for a reasonable premium. I doubt they'll outperform the standard 1oz kooks in their performance, but it's a nice niche market and it's cheap to keep up. Report this Post to the Staff
