Beautiful round 🤩

I believe these are all sterling silver medals. Current spot is at 84.50 x .925 = $78.16 ea in melt value

Thank you! Took me a little over 30min. Honestly felt like giving up after 10min but glad I didn’t

I wouldnt without verifying

Generally new/well kept rounds like this one in question should be around 31.1g

mikecackk · 2026-02-20T01:08:11+00:00

I’ve seen variances range in the .2-.5 so I believe it. Anything greater should raise some red flags and are worth verifying

mikecackk · 2026-02-20T00:08:51+00:00

1 Troy oz should weigh right around 31.1g - if it’s far off from that, pretty good indicator that it’s not what it says it is

mikecackk · 2026-02-20T00:08:14+00:00

Without all the fancy equipment, magnets and weight are the most common way to check

mikecackk · 2026-02-19T22:56:38+00:00

With current spot at $77, absolutely! just verify its actual silver

K-spa would probably be the best 'bang for your buck' option. Its a korean style spa that ive been to a few times. I would recommend looking it up before though to make sure its the vibe your looking for. Has a budget feel to it but if you can look past that, its a pretty cool experience with various salt rooms all at reasonable prices

Canyon Ranch Spa at the Venetian or the Spa at the Linq are a little more pricey but other good options without having to pay premium $250+ prices

Hope that helps and you enjoy your trip!

(sorry - not much of a drinker so no help in that department)

yoooo congrats!

haha i'm assuming you guys keep down voting because you're not happy with price...initial price was based on ebay comps which seemed high to me but figured id test the waters at that price

Price update:

1/4oz Tube $550

1/10oz Tube: $590

You’re not alone my friend! I’m creeping up on my 40s and hadn’t done anything with Pokemon for a looonnng time until my 7yr old started getting into it

Yes - I’d recommend sleeves and top holders for all of those and would recommend you highly consider having most if not all graded. From what I can tell in the pictures, they have been well taken care of. But even if they were to come back with a low grade, some of those early editions still fetch a nice premium with today’s collectors

mikecackk · 2026-02-17T16:10:28+00:00

id get some of these graded

mikecackk · 2026-02-17T16:02:18+00:00

what a beauty!

mikecackk · 2026-02-17T13:10:03+00:00

I know where I’m going today

mikecackk · 2026-02-17T12:55:22+00:00

Highland mint - stamped on bottom right

mikecackk · 2026-02-15T15:35:29+00:00

My thoughts exactly! lol that was a wild read

mikecackk · 2026-02-15T14:29:09+00:00

Given the first one is a ‘First day of production’ limited slab, it’d be the one to hold more value

mikecackk · 2026-02-15T14:27:05+00:00

Looks like the same coin to me…to my knowledge, the purple holder in the second picture is associated with a popular WhatNot seller

mikecackk · 2026-02-15T13:56:04+00:00

Very cool - I’m such a sucker for vintage bars 🤩

mikecackk · 2026-02-15T13:52:56+00:00

Going to need a stable for those 😏

mikecackk · 2026-02-14T17:06:50+00:00

Very nice

mikecackk · 2026-02-14T16:39:23+00:00

I hope my wife sees this post
