Star Wars silver coins

[Lanarth]

Are these a worthwhile investment for someone new to silver but is also a huge Star Wars fan. If so any advice where the best place to buy is outside of the uk to avoid VAT.

I'd be a bit wary tbh. I bought the Yoda silver proof this time last year and they're now going on ebay at around the same price. From a fan point of view yes but from an investment point of view I don't think so.

About £65 and upwards. Is it a good looking coin? Would probably go with the older tradtional silver proof rather than the newer coloured.

@Lanarth I've moved this topic to the silver section.   You had posted it in the area for asking questions/issues with the forum.

I think the Star Wars silver poster coins will do well...

These are often referred to as colorized coins and for the most part they don't do well long-term. I wouldn't say that is true in every case, but they tend to be more gimmicky type coins and the people who are willing to spend good money on coins aren't interested in these it seems. Check out eBay or some coin shows and see what colorized coins you do see and how well they sell. It could be a good way to gauge whether these will be successful.

Possible, but there's a slim chance that it would go well long term. But if you're a fan, why not?

I bought one on eBay turned out to be a fake eBay is allowing fakes to be sold even after I complaind best place to buy is off a trusted dealer I think they will never reach there full potential on the market but as a collector it is personal choice what you buy

Only buy it if you plan on not making any money on it and you really like Star Wars, this way if it does go up - only ++++++.
I have seen so many of these types of coins show up at local coin shows a few years after release for spot.

I think if you're a SW fan boy who is also into PMs, picking one up for the collection/series sounds like a good idea.  If you're going to buy a tube or more with the hopes that these jump to light-speed in the future, be careful..."It's a trap".

Personally, I think there are better coins to spend your money on if you're hoping for appreciation beyond spot in the future.  Bu that's just my two Galactic Credits...
