Buy collectible bullion coins
When purchasing collectible coins, you have a variety of popular series to choose from. Some series have been in production for many years, such as the Lunar and Kangaroo series. However, we also regularly introduce new series, such as the Germania and Swarovski Birthstone series.
At The Silver Mountain, we offer a range of collectible series as well as standalone collectible coins that are not part of a specific series. These coins often have a limited mintage and are available for a short period. The silver coins—often of high quality—are available in various sizes and sometimes in unique shapes. Collectible coins also make excellent gifts for special occasions.
Coin quality types
The characteristics of a coin determine whether it is classified as a bullion coin or a collectible coin. Coins can be distinguished based on their design, quality, purity, mintage, the period of issuance, or country of origin.
Coins are struck at different mints, which impacts their quality, price, and rarity. Regarding coin quality, the terms commonly used are: circulation quality, uncirculated, brilliant uncirculated, prooflike, and proof.
A coin of circulation quality is used daily by consumers for transactions. These coins pass from hand to hand and are thus subject to wear and damage. Uncirculated (UNC) coins are minted for circulation but are not actually put into circulation. During the production process, the coins are collected in a metal bin, which can sometimes cause superficial damage. Generally, these coins are packaged in a coin roll by collectors.
Brilliant uncirculated (BU) coins are the first coins struck with a new die, which gives them a brighter luster. These coins are not intended for circulation but are specifically made for collectors and enthusiasts.
Additionally, there are proof coins, which represent the highest quality. Various techniques are applied to these coins to enhance their quality, such as polished coin blanks and dies, creating a significant contrast between the relief and the background. Historically, the term "proof coin" referred to a coin struck as a test to evaluate a new design. Today, proof coins are struck individually and then packaged in a capsule to prevent damage. Proof coins are extremely delicate and should only be handled with gloves.
Finally, there are coins that meet the prooflike quality standard. These coins closely resemble proof coins. In the production of prooflike coins, the die is polished, and the coin blank is treated differently. Moreover, more coins are struck with the same pair of dies. Like proof coins, prooflike coins must be handled with extreme care to avoid damage.
Presentation box and certificate of authenticity
Collectible coins are often delivered in a presentation box with a certificate of authenticity. If a coin is provided in such a manner, we always mention this in the description. Typically, a product photo of the coin along with the packaging is also displayed.
Limited mintage
Collectible coins are frequently minted in limited quantities. This makes these coins very rare, as they cannot be reordered later. We often mention the worldwide mintage in the product information.
Sizes of collectible coins
Bullion coins are typically minted in the size of 1 troy ounce. Collectible coins, however, come in many different sizes. We offer collectible coins weighing several kilograms, from 10 troy ounces down to fractions of 1 troy ounce.
