Perth Mint Gold Horses

[Shamatti]

1 Oz, 1/2 Oz, 1/4 Oz and 1/10 Oz.

 

Aren't they lovely?
Sorry about my poor photography!

 

[Danny-boy]

You lucky boy, I'd love that set. I have no gold yet, can't bring myself to stop buying silver.

[Shamatti]

I wasn't going to buy gold but had to swap silver to get my stack home. LKind of falling in love with it now though. Oh, what have I done!

[Danny-boy]

Oh oh. I smell a gold stacker.

[ChrisSilver]

Nice horses, I have a gold lunar horse as well, but this years one.

I prefer silver though, personally I think it looks nice, is currently undervalued, and you get more coins for your money

[Danny-boy]

It's the more coins thing that does it for me.

I like substance.

[klacey]

Wow, very nice indeed. I was thinking of getting some 1/10 for my website. But I'm still not sure how well gold will do.

[motorbikez]

Yep I'm also a big silver fan but I do have a number of 1oz Krugerrands and a 1oz gold  panda and roo. More for investment really I haven't looked at them for years,but I look at my silver coin collection a couple of times a week as silver coins are my thing

What year is your panda?

[motorbikez]

Just had a look 2012 so is the roo

Don't think anyone will ever go wrong with fractional Au. And the Aussie 2014 horse in both Au.and Ag. is my favourite coin as Lunars go from Perth/M. That set is a ripper.

[Shamatti]

I agree with you Shiney!

 

I hvae the horses in gold and silver, The gold as aobove. Silver I have 1/2, 1/4 1, 2, and 5 Oz - they diodn't have the 10 Oz when I was looking. Might check with them nexst week though ans see if I can get it. Then all I need is the Kilo for the completye set. Don't think that will happen though, I am over spent already!

[ChrisSilver]

The smallest coin I have ever bought is an ounce, I just think anything smaller is too small. For silver it's alright, an ounce is cheap. But gold is pretty expensive. How does the 1/2 ounce compare in size next to a 1oz silver coin for example? Gold is pretty dense so is a 1/2 ounce gold coin pretty small? I was surprised how small a 1oz one was.

[Shiny]

Yes it is smaller along the lines of a 10p coin but denser. I like the small fractional Au. even the valcambi 1 gram buying small and regular amazing how quickly it adds up and is or will be able to be liquidated quickly if needed.

Dont underestimate gold, especially there (in UK) where it is tax free compared to silver.

Fractional gold is one of our biggest sellers 1/10 Lunars will go like hot cakes.

Valcambi 1gm combis are a massive seller, just a little more than buying unallocated but you get it in hand.

When you have acquired enough you can have it manufactured into a 1oz cast!

[ChrisSilver]

I might have to consider a 1/2 ounce coin at some point then.

My mistake, this is this years one. I was thinking these horses were series 1 gold horses. Got confuses as the gold lunar horse is a different design to the silver lunar horse for some reason.

[Iceblue]

1/4 oz is also a good size, around the same size as an Aussie $1 coin, maybe one of the other guys can give you a reference in your currency.

Basically the smaller fractionals are most liquid.

Sales wise we sell a lot more fractional than 1oz.

In KLACYS case as far as stocking Gold I would recommend 1/10 and 1/4oz to start with as that will turn over quickly.

Who manufactures it into a cast? What are the fees like for this, + added premiums for buying 1g at a time?

[Shamatti]

1/4 oz and 1/2 oz are both good sizes. They have a lovely weight to them, depite being small. I have a half ounce snake which I purchased for little over spot as it has been out of it's capsule and handled quite a lot. It is great to play with, considering how we tend to keep such expensive and beautiful things wrapped up in plastic and such! lol

1/2 oz you might convince me to start stacking. 1/4 once, no way! The size is too small. 

[Shamatti]

What about Sovereigns? They feel prety small ofer handling 1 Oz silvercoins. I still like them though!

[Shiny]

Cheapest one gram I know of at the moment. Today 54 -06 aud valcambi, compared with pamp 1 gm and perth mint 1 gm with a much bigger premium.

I like the design of the new 2014 sovereign. But the 22carat stops it for me. I want the real .999 gold.
