RE: Is the Perth Mint Over Saturating the Coin Market?
My friend, if you are complainig that Perth Mint is saturating the market, you should see what the Royal Canadian Mint does. Hundreds of commemoratives and bullion coins every year. Hundreds!
You make a good point. The RCM has been a joke to me for the past few years. I stopped even considering their coins due to rampant milk spot issues.
The Perth Mint was the gold standard to me. I thought their quality was above the rest of the government coin issuers. Now it just seems they are no better than any other mint.
If they keep this up, they'll have more coins than Niue...
I have hundreds of RCM commemoratives with zero milk spots. They only happened on bullion coins and RCM promised that it would stop in 2018 (new method).
I read about the new "Mint Shield". I am giving them a shot as I picked up my first RCM coins in years. 2 30th Anniversary coins, 2 Incused Maples, and one old run of the mill Maple.
