The new copper coins

What do you think of the new copper coins that have started to appear

They are not new, it's just that people are collecting them more and mints are also taking advantage of this too

I've only been stacking for less than a year so I suppose everything is new to me but over the last 6 months I have seen more and more copper coins I don't think I'd stack them for a investment point of view but for art some of them are very nice

My honest view and opinion on collecting copper coins is that it is more of a gimmick than anything else. I buy these ( yes it sounds ironic and wrong ) but only to giveaway and they make easy gifts. But recently they have shot up in value due to people collecting them as parts of silver and gold sets. But personally I would advise anyone new to stay away... save up for silver and gold... and if you can add some platinum to your stack.

I have a few, mainly gifts when I bought silver. But these do include a a set of the Medieval Legends rounds: they are very nice and complement the silver issues.

Do you have photos I'm trying to learn how to post photos

I don't I'm afraid. I don't have a smartphone and it's a bit tricky without one (For 'tricky' read faff using a digital camera, uploading the images and then doing the transfer). The photos I've posted (with a couple of exceptions involving cats and plants) have been lifted from the web.
Posting them is actually very easy. @Admin has done a really good 'How To' set of instructions (last section on the home page). If you have the website open twice you can follow the instructions as you do it. Believe me, if I can, you can too.

It's not something i'd personally buy from a stacking point of view but i think some of them actually look really cool, i do like the look of the copper Zombucks set & that copper triangle Libertad you had was really nice too.

I do have a few, mainly Christmas designs x
