Don't Buy Painted Coins
Painted coins can seem like a great investment, but they're far from it. Sure, when done well they're appealing to the eye, but it's a gimmick. When done wrong, it's an eyesore. Done well or not, it really doesn't add value so you're likely to lose money over time.


While this says it's limited mintage and you'd think it's worth more than an ounce of silver, it's not.

Even without the paint bulging out, it's just paint. Sure, they only made 250, but is it really going to be in high demand? Thats debatable considering it's not made by a high profile government or private mint.

In the end, it's still just an ounce of silver.
It's sad the paint bulged. I'll soak it in some acetone to strip the paint off. It'll likely end up being sold off or going in the secret silver stash as a random piece.
Learn from my mistake. Don't buy painted silver! Stack for weight. If you're going to buy a limited mintage piece, make sure it's from a reputable mint and justifies the premium: proof, reverse proof, etc.

Yes, in the final analysis, it's still just an ounce of silver! Sometimes, though, the designs are outstanding and come alive with color! I have very few silver with color, @bulliontools !

I agree, it's a gimmick but when the only version available is colorized then I wouldn't have much a choice. A cheaper BU would do me rather than paying more of an unnecessary minting stage.

Very true. In my case here, I should've skipped on it and just bought a traditional Libertad. The triangular shape is cool, but not necessary.

IF you seen my last two posts, I like the Scottsdale Halloween bars but I could be just as happy with a BU version than pay extra for the colored bars. Not such version. WYSIWYG. There wasn't that big a price difference between the headline bars, mintage 499, and the kid friendly bars, mintage unlimited. 🎃
