My pickups from the European Mint using BYB's discount code.

Spotless coins apart from a couple of edge dings on the Phil and the beast.

Glad to see the bloody Krugerrand is spot free so far!

Great buy dude! I like the Bloody Krugerrand the most. Got one myself as well, and it is one of the prettiest looking coins I have, the frosted finish is great. Never imagined I liked it that much before buying..

Can't wait for my group order to arrive, with a Britannia and a Philly in it too!

Thanks. I was trying to stick to low premiums while still scratching my collecting itch!

The BK is a very pretty coin. I really like the flat edge of the phils as well. Much nicer to play with than reeded edges that leave sharp bits.

I think this is my best looking bar yet.  I might have to get a few more.

Thanks and so was the premium 🤣 but it's a piece that I had to get when I saw it as it most probably won't be around for long this side of the pond 👍

I received this very substantial 100oz bar today.  I think the design is great, and I was surprised by the thickness (other 100oz bars I've seen are longer and flatter).  The 1/4 oz dragon is there to illustrate the thickness of this bar.  Unfortunately it has a dark blemish on one side, and a large gash on the other.  It was a very low premium, but I still might ask about an exchange.  I really do like the bar itself though!😊

That is beautiful, but that dent is too bad, I wouldnt accept that on one of my poured bars unless it was sold as a second and the fault shown, but on a minted any marks or damage sticks out like a sore thumb.

Very nice!  Shame about the nick, it’s not exactly small either!  Where did you get it from?

It's a must have for every Libertad collector... It's also on my wishlist, but so are a lot of other things unfortunately... 😛

Looks like it's been tested?

That's the kind of mark a triangular file would leave.

That’s what I thought too.

I agree with all the comments above, and will attempt to get a replacement.  I purchased it from APMEX via presale for $1,506.  So $15.06/oz is good, but I would expect more from a brand new bar.  Thank you all for your input!

[MickD]

Wouldn't think twice about sending it back to a dealer.  Bit of a brass neck sending that to a customer. Nice looking bar though.   Good luck. 🍺

They’re around £1500 here so approx $19.50/toz!!  You lucky Americans

APMEX has already emailed me a pre-paid label for return postage in response to a photo of this bar.  So at least they did the right thing, and without any hassle🙂
