Day-6 of me doing the Christmas silver wish list thingie initiative, first started by @silverd510. As a quick reminder, the goal is to post for 12 consecutive days, 12 silver pieces that I would love to be gifted for Christmas.
Well, normally it would be day 7 but I took a break from posting yesterday to enjoy some personal time 😂
Moving on...
So far we have seen some really epic silver pieces that all fall under the "coin" category.
Today's piece is a bit different though. It's silver but it's definitely not a coin. Actually.. I think it technically is a coin since it does have a denomination of 100 $.
And it's big. 1 fucking kilo big. That's 35.274 ounces.
And if you are a fan of star wars you definitely gonna love it!
Allow me to introduce you to the 100$, 1 kg Death Star:
The world's first Spherical STAR WARSâ„¢ coin is dedicated to the deadly weapon of the Galactic Empireâ„¢ - the Death Starâ„¢. The coin was struck from one kilo of 99.9% silver and provided with an Antique Finish. A special and elaborate minting technique makes it possible to depict the Death Starâ„¢ in all details very authentically and in a unique spherical shape. The STAR WARSâ„¢ Death Starâ„¢ 1 Kilo Antique Finish coin is delivered in a high-quality presentation box with a black base that allows the coin to be viewed from all sides. A numbered certificate of authenticity is also included. source
This bad boy is issued by Niue Island and has a super low mintage of just 300.
And if you thought the previous items had a stupid high premium...Then this one is by far the king! If you want this piece expect to pay somewhere in the range of 7 fucking thousand dollars 😂😂😂💸💸💸💸
Today's spot is about 730 per kilo so that's about ten times the spot ! I guess the niche for this piece is really targetted. Rich star wars fun that love to stuck silver!
I guess regular plebs like us only get to enjoy this piece from YouTube videos:
Now imagine going to a shop and trying to use it as a regular 100 $ coin. That would be hilarious 😂
Anyways plebs, this is it for today. See you tomorrow with another silver piece I am only getting in my dreams 😂
