[ravensfan]

I'm interested. What are the details?

I'm interested. What are the details?

See earlier posts on this thread for how it was done previously. (see especially post #39 from Danny.....nice pics!!)

No new details yet... just feeling out the interest. order of 25 comes in its own plastic sleeve. Each 'round' is 1 troy oz .999 silver. They are really beautiful! Cost will probably be around $20, and includes all costs of manufacture and shipping.

At this point, just let Tom know how many you might be interested in. 25 is a good number! Although Tom did not set a minimum before, I would think that anything less than 5 would be more hassle than it's worth.....but that's his call.

That reminds me.....I haven't stacked and restacked my silver in a while!! I should go do that! :Eyecrazy:

 

[daze823]

Count me in for 10 coins...

 

[burrocrat]

so does anybody want to start a spreadsheet of confirmed or potential new buyers? i remember they come in sleeves of 20 ounces, but i could be wrong on that and it is 25?

i will take one full sleeve either way. i would prefer a different reverse design die and even be willing to shuck out extra coin for it, but i understand that most folks here are conservative penny pinchers... nothing wrong with pennies or pinchers.

i think it takes 500 coins to make a mint run at economical cost and the current dies are already made so let's tally it up. who says they are pledged in?

Bought my own stash from online broker. I did the Eagles, they're more recognizable and easier to fence if needed.

Unless it has changed, they added $250 for under 1000 coins.

that's a lot of silver. were the full sleeves 20 or 25 rounds each?

 

[tsptalk]

We only bought 500 last time so we paid that fee. There are 25 per tube.

[alevin]

I'm not going to commit at this point, got other financial goals that make for tight belt cashflow wise for awhile to come.

 

[Boghie]

Finally not completely broke. Many thanks to Dave Ramsey... Gotta hate credit card debt. You will feel the relief when it is gone, trust me. But, I am bumping up TSP as well as being trained by the Dog Whisperer not to fight for the chow.

But, the coins were stunning.

I want a sleeve (25). I would like them a bit different (Burro's idea of changing the Obverse, Reverse, whatever). That way, when I sit on my (small) mound of loot, tossing them in the air, I can see the goodness. But, I will go with the flow.

By the way Burro, many thanks for the coin you gave me for the CAGR thang. I will do it quarterly because it moves so slow. That way you don't have to feel the need to donate your ill-gotten loot.

i haven't given up on a second reverse design because sometimes folk's change their minds later so i have been working on some designs for a new reverse to present to the silver club anyways.

i always thought it would be cool to be a combat engineer, you know play with the big toys. and if i quit or get fired from my current job, i took an online iq test/job questionnaire and it said i should be a truck driver. just imagine all the different people you would get to meet and things you would see. pretty cool.

so this is what i have come up with so far...

[burrocrat]

but just to show i am not sexist and can accommodate the ladie's wishes if they don't like that one, we could go with something like this instead...

[DreamboatAnnie]

No way Burro!! Not letting you get away with that!! . Gotta be fair..... Tit for tat..

 

[burrocrat]

ahem, i think that may be a little risqué for this crowd. perhaps we should go with something a bit more saintly.

i think this one is what christian truckers put on their mud flaps.

 

[alevin]

much better, Annie, except that pose kinda looks like something the Soviet Union's socialist realism art school might have used also. not sure burro would approve. :smile:
