Collecting themes.

[SilverPirate]

Do's any one out there collect themed silver,Themes like dogs,birds,cars,ships that sort of thing,if so have you got any pictures to show.

I know date runs and mints are popular themes, i like the look of Baird & Co's rounds,O.K. they are not limited but would look nice in a tray.

Hi SP

 

I do not directly collect anything themed but I do have themed collections, simply because my supplier had them a t a very good price.

 

I have a collection of bars which depict ships they weigh around 2.2 g each and there are 102 of them.

 

I also have lots of silver coins which reflect our Monarchy. There are around 200 of these some in a large folder, some are proofs etc.

 

Cheers

I have lots of kookaburra coins, which happen to be date runs and from the same mint... does that count as a theme.

I also have kangaroos, which are date runs and from another mint.

 

I must say though I have started collecting a lot of carded 1oz coins.  Currently I have Kangaroos, Koalas and Stock Horses.  So I guess 'carded coins' would count as a theme too.

Ah, I also have lots of different design 'Privy Mark' coins, so when you think of it, there are all sorts of theme groups to collect.

Yes now I think about it I maybe do collect themes.

 

I have some carded coins. Kangaroos. I also have a few with various privy marks also as they look nice!!!

 

I do not go out of my way to get them though or do I. Maybe I think I don't but I do. Who knows who cares!!

 

ITS SILVER!!!!!

I collect coins with the queen on. Not on purpose, but just because she seems to be on every coin.

Absolutely stunning thanks for the pics.

That's a nice set Motorbikz! I looked up the current market prices for the first series, and they are crazy! I think I am going to try to collect a set of the 2nd series before the prices on those become unrealistic.

Looks lovely SP.

Do we know how many are in the animal series?

Where you buy from, seems a reasonable price.

Other than 10oz Perth Mint bars, 1oz rolls of Kooks and 1oz gold Perth Mint carticards which make up the bulk of my stack, I collect a few series just to add some variety. I collect the SBSS, SGB, Zombucks, SS XAG series and a few other bits and pieces that take my fancy.

I got this from Sarnia Silver, they have the Peregrine falcon, the rabbit. and not technically a year of but the monarch of the Glen.

There is a Snake i have seen on Baird's web site which is very nice,

Baird also do i think it is the Indian faith rounds which look very cool, i am not sure if they make these or broker them.,

Channel island silver and Sarnia silver both sell Baird silver.

Thanks mate, I'll take a look when I get chance.
