2016 Palau Gold and Silver Skulls

I find these pretty cool. Only 1,750 of the silver one ounce. PCGS and NGC grade these also. What are your thoughts?

I don't consider these as real coins, but each to their own.
I prefer circulation coins and tend to steer away from Granny bait.
Not sure that grannies would want to buy those though. :)

I like it, I would consider buying one but over $120 on eBay. A little too much for me even being limited. Thanks for sharing.

in all trust there is a possibility of betrayal

Yeah, that's what I thought....COINS??? More like collectors bullion to me.

Never heard of granny bait, must mean what I call modern crap.

It's an expression that means only little old ladies would buy it for their grandkids,
thinking that they are helping them amass a fortune in collectible coins.  :(

Check out these poured silver skulls from yeagers poured silver:

Not quite as detailed as that expensive one, but they are only about $6 over spot for the one ounce and go from there.

I think those Palau skulls are cool! Yes a little pricey but that's a low mintage, I'm definitely keeping an eye out for a good deal on one.
