Not having a big budget my collecting interest is looking for good cost bargains.
The hunt is for random coins but I do like the silver 1oz type even the ones with the print of a stamp on them.
At present I am trying to figure out why I should pay more than $40 for a 1oz silver UNC to Proof coin.
The only set I am collecting is The Map Of Australia issues and really like them.
The idea of CIRC coins in their key dates is growing on me especially the present releases. It also keeps the cost as low as possible.
Some of you people have big budget collections.......
I am happy I found my niche.......
Hello,
If Silver Coins are your thing that is great. There are many on Ebay for a good price, although some are a joke. When people break up Mint sets, they sell the less desirable ones for a reasonable price. They make their money on the ones most people want, like the Melbourne florin. I have bought whole Silver Proof Mint sets for less than $20 a Coin.
Thanks very much Chris.
I will add that to my searching.
It is just the way to collect for me!
This was a great 1oz silver coin find at a very good price.

Hello,
This is an example of what I mean. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/1989-MASTERPIECES-in-SILVER-FIFTY-CENT-COLLECTION-CASE-BOX-CERT-FREE-POST-/301338884884?pt=AU_Coins2&hash=item4629327b14 As many sets are broken up, an original one with number and case should be worth more in the future. Just my opinion, as I am no expert. I buy what I like.
Very Tempting Indeed!
Thanks for sharing.
Yes it does show if you look around there are some great buys.
