Excellent.

Of course I don't know how much PM is in those, but they are certainly cool.
Nice find.

Make sure you find out how themetal content in them......I dont see it on the coin.....If you got it for the enjoyment congrats...... just dont expect a massive premium and be prepared to defend your coins from the hagglers.

the $50 coin is one ounce palladium, the $100 is a quarter ounce gold and the $10 is one ounce silver.

im very pleased, dont think deals like this come every day.

Re: picked up theese babies
 

That's the problem with buying esoteric, unfamiliar, and unmarked PM content coins. They are ALOT easier to buy than to sell. With most bullion dealers I know, if they are unfamiliar with it, have to "look it up", or have to do physical damage to the coin itself to test the metal content, they will just pass on the deal. That's also why so much of this kind of thing ends up at the refinery. But if it's cheap enough to make a profit on scrapping it out, go for it !

Dude, you cleaned up on that deal. Don't feel guilty, pat yourself on the back! :applause_

Re: picked up theese babies
 

An ounce of Palladium is selling for $462 so consider the 1/2 oz gold and 2 oz of silver is free !! :applause_
