Thank you very much. Flaking should inly incur if handled without gloves, that said if they were to put a gloss finish lacquer on it , the flaking wouldn't occur
I had to zoom in to show the details. But to also show the differences between the two. One being much darker than the other...And this is not by design alone.
not for me this. Here we have print, for me bar or coin must be minted or cast and then possibly colored. I notice there is some trend with this now and start seeing other companies are doing similar and I do not like this, they want make money in easy way and those product are not cheep
Agreed, I was going and still might spring 3k for a lazer engraver ONLY to personalise some items. But too many are just making a basic bar or round and letting the engraver do the rest.
I'm collecting the Goddesses series. Enjoyed the video. Gullweig looks great, looking forward to mine being delivered tomorrow. I don't view the series as an investment more like artwork. I will not be collecting the Gods series.
I ran into a negative experience, which is useful to share with you. I see the sponge in the box is the same as the official colored Allegories coins, which come with a carved wooden box! I bought Space Blue and Flags coins. Among them was a Columbia&Germania, which did not fit into the picture at all. This one was made by I-Color, in a small square case, (like the older Niue coins) But not only was the paper packaging damaged, but the coin was also scratched around the edge, and there were darker spots visible on the gilding on the female figures. I had to return this. Fortunately, with a small additional payment, it was exchanged for one that comes in a large, carved wooden box, and it comes with an official certification that the colored version is limited to 100 pieces! Since I have most of my capital invested in Germania Mint coins, I feel that something should be done because this I-Color could really hurt the business. It would be important for prospective buyers to know what kind of packaging and certification the mint quality applies to!
Those space blue coins are years old now. I ended up selling most of mine years ago. The packaging was not in a wooden box, it was a cardboard box. Book like design. Look bzxk through my videos and you will see each one
Looking forward to the Solveig round (Valkyries). I've heard that they had to postpone the release, because they had some issues... I guess you will have a look at it too, right?
@MrFetzo420 lol it really is nothing, the company that makes these on behalf of Germania ( and others ) had a Major backlog .... so although the designs are coming out. The products are not.
I like both images. But the colour bleed on the God's is noticeable as mentioned. This God's bar is one of the very last. ( I won't give the number ) but CLOSE!!!!! Martin probably has number 999 let's just say that 😎😎😎
@@AceBullion Paulybuck will be doing a video Sunday so I don't know what number he has you're the first I have seen do the Gods series so I'm going to guess you have maybe a really low number between 1 and 10 or a really high number between 990 999
@mykittenisagrandmaster4381 no comment 😎🤣🤣😎 I can't wait to show znd share with everyone what's coming!! I have a box plus more on the way that dealers don't havd yet. Ahhhh keeping it all quiet sucks lol
Actually really like the black on the god one....but have also heard about the flaking issue. Great and fair review.

They really stand out when you zoom in I like them 🧲⚓️👍

They are gorgeous bars. Love the detail in them. Thanks for showing them off John.
Thank you Donna, it is my absolute pleasure. I have a large box here to review and more on the way 😳
@@AceBullion Oh ho ... that means I get to see even more silver to put on my acquisition list. LOL
Very nice 🧲⚓️👍
Thanks 👍

Trust me they are great investment, they flip on good profit
It's not an investment, for the majority It's art as you mentioned. Some will flip them though.

Managed to get both ❤
WOW Awesome 👌
They are just beautiful. x
I do like the design. 👍👍

Yep. I am more than aware of the issues . Not as glamorous as one might think 🤣🤣🤣 But that's to come
@@AceBullion Haha ok, I'm curious...

Really awesome bars the Goddesses one looks better than the Gods because of the lighter background with the image on it
