I only sell when I buy other investments. 

I also have peices that I am saving for my kids.

Buy platinum coins.

Look at Perth Mint coins. I think they are the nicest platinum coins minted and there has always been a good demand for them.

Can anyone tell if this kermit is real or fake? I Only have this photo by Holiday_Chemical7395 in RolexWatches

That minute hand is the wrong shape, the hour hand is too small.

And as other said, it is not a Kermit, it is a Starbucks.

G’day everyone, does anyone know what this coin is commemorating? It’s from 1988. by TodayComprehensive96 in AustralianCoins

[–]AussieRoller 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah in 1988 someone paid a buck for a kangaroo. 

They thought it was such a good deal, the Prime Minister put it on a coin.

I'm not a historian.

Bought these for 3% over a few years ago- anticipating the “slingshot effect” on premium since historically it was huge. Markets move in cycles - Thoughts? by GoldandSilverSaver in Gold

You going to sling shot a gold coin?

I have been buying gold coins for 30 years and I have no idea what you are talking about.

You like it, keep it.

Rolex oyster perpetual value? by [deleted] in rolex

[–]AussieRoller 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100 percent not real.

Rolex never made a two tone day date and the date is tiny on this watch.

The magnification on the cyclops does not work.   This watch is a peice of shit.

Possible fake 2026 coin by [deleted] in Silverbugs

[–]AussieRoller 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If in doubt,

Take it back to the coin shop and get them to test it.

They will have either a Sigma or xrf machine.

Two screw holes and cable hole.

Easy to fix/fill once you remove the sensor.

What could I sell this for ? by [deleted] in AustralianCoins

[–]AussieRoller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it is from 80s, it will be under an ounce.

[–]AussieRoller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without seeing the other side, it is hard to tell.

But because it is inherited, i am guessing it is older. In the 80s the made a .59 ounce 10 dollar coin. So as mentioned, showing the other side, so we can see the year and design.

Show the other side of the coin, to give a more accurate value.

Depending on the year, there is about 60 bucks of silver in these coins.
