2018 Great Britain 1 oz Silver Year of the Dog

in #steemsilvergold • 8 years ago

Just received this coin from Apmex.
They say a picture speaks a thousand words but this picture doesn't do this coin justice!
Sorry about the lousy pictures, but I have to say this is one beautiful coin.
I did not want to open it due to it being sealed and numbered.
It comes in a plastic sealed package and the coin itself is enclosed in a sealed plastic coin capsule.
This is going to be one of my favorite coins so far.

    Upvoted, but honestly, I hate this coin! I think the dog is ugly and coin design is absolutely terrible.

      APMEX is my favorite place to order precious metals from. I can also definitely understand not wanting to take the coin out of the package-that's a nice looking coin!

      Thanks , it really is a beautiful coin, it jumped up on my favorites list immediately!
      I can only recommend if you can buy it, the picture really just doesn't show it off like I wish.

      They come in both a plastic case and a sealed bag? I can't say I've seen that method of packaging a coin before.

        I just received a shipment from Apmex. All of my coins were in bags too. Must be a new thing they are doing. I normally order from JM Bullion.

        I've always liked Apmex,Looks like Apmex is stepping up the game!
        Sealed in plastic and in a coin holder!!! Pretty sweet to me!

          Nice pick up up, I choose to go with the Perth Mint year of the dog coin. I'll probably pick up the Rwandan dog coin too.
