Bullion series you'd like to see.

[AgCoyote]

What are some bullion coins or series that you would like to see? What country would you like to see issue an annual bullion coin and what would it be?

Here are a few I've thought of

Royal Canadian Mint

10 oz. Silver Polar Bear, offered every year with a new design.

1 oz and 10 oz. Whale Series- Orca, Beluga, Narwhal and Humpback

Perth Mint

I loved the .5 ounce Sharks that were done a few years ago. I would like another series with a similar finish and look as the Next Gen. and offering 2 oz. and 10 oz silver with Great White, Hammerhead, Tiger, and Bull Sharks.

Annual 1oz. and 10 oz. Saltwater Crocodile semi-numismatic similar to Kooks and Koalas.

Scottsdale Mint

Offer a 1 oz, 5 oz, and 10 oz. coin of the Greater Roadrunner, a different design annually. The other side of the coin would have a map of Arizona.

 

 

I wish Brazil( semi numismatic Jaguars, standard bullion coin of Sugarloaf Mountain), Italy(something Roman themed), Spain(vintage pieces of eight.) would do some bullion.

The Dutch lion dollar.. Only produced in 2017 as bullion. Would love to see that every year. Now they only make proof versions, which spot more than a Yale..

@AgCoyote nice idea for a thread 👍

Perth Mint Kookaburra - Gold as well as silver. Plus would love some Reverse Proofs.

UK Mint - Famous artists series...they could milk us for ever on that one!

[BuffaloGold]

Ohhhh,  like this thread idea.

 

I think...

AUSTRIA:

Not a big fan of their design, but they should do different musical instruments every year.

 

ITALY:

Agree with the above poster that roman based would be cool. Maybe designs of old roman coins but as though they were new and modernised.

 

GREECE:

The Greek gods obviously.

 

RUSSIA:

Strong soviet designs, I'd be all over these. 

 

God, I have so many ideas, not all good, but ideas.

I like the idea of famous artists. Just wish the Royal Mint could be the same standard as the Perth Mint. They would make a killing.

What about famous scientists too. 

And Austria really could go to town on musical instruments.

I would love a regular one ounce bullion coin in gold and silver from Germany.

We only have changing irregular series that are of small sizes or single commemorative coins.

I would love it to have a classic design, like a heraldic with a modern twist, like Queen's Beasts.

Again we have somewhat strange and or bland topics, like german trees, or musical instruments.

A german eagle on one side and state or city heraldics on the other maybe, changing every year.

It wouldn't be a series, but an Irish bullion coin with a shamrock or harp could do well.

Has the traditional zodiac been done rather than the lunar calendar?

I have seen at least four or five zodiac series. I think the Chinese calendar is more convenient for a series, as they change per year.  The zodiacs are monthly, which makes a release schedule rather difficult.

Absolutely!

I'm a huge fan of Soviet/CCCP era art and design - I'd definitely be in the market for a series that harked back to the post-WWII Cold War years.

I would like to see Perth Mint X-Men series

[KDave]

Is there a wonders of the world series? Kind of like the America the beautiful (ATB) 5 ounce series perhaps. 

A bullion solar system, someone had some very nice collector coins on display here I think colourised, moon, Mars, Jupiter, ect. 

Like @caloundracats idea perhaps science and math series would be interesting, atomic structure, DNA helix, that kind of thing. Plenty of beauty in human understanding, many facets but probably not very popular. 

Nice enjoyable thread. The Athenian owl is one of the lowest premium coins I own so we know these can be done without ruining the stack price per ounce. I know people don't care about that anymore.

I would like to see more bars like the 1oz Australian Dragon bars. I think it is a really nice format that makes a difference from all the 1oz coins and rounds. I agree with some of the other comments that it would be lovely to see something around Scientists and Artists. I would add to that legendary music acts. The Royal Mail has done some great stamps in recent years featuring Pink Floyd and David Bowie - it would be nice if the Royal Mint followed suit. I'd also like to see the Royal Canadian Mint do the same and feature beloved Canadian musicians like Rush,The Tragically Hip, Neil Young, Leonard Cohen, etc (we'll gloss over Bieber).

China - the dragon coins 

US mint - something new but the Apollo was good 

I wish engelhard would pour again

Maths and science for me.

Calculus on a coin? I never understood it at engineering college. But I muddled through for forty plus years.

Did you see this? Scottsdale Mint has them. Maybe others are selling it too, but not sure.  2018 Fiji Samurai Archives
