My last silver buy was at a local coin club live auction in Burnaby last week which is an adjacent municipality from where I live. The club is called the North Shore Numismatic Society, talking with individual members about their collection is like speaking to a historian. That evening's program was about the History of the Merchant's bank, a bank that grew to be the third largest in the dominion of Canada before the nationalized currency was establish in 1935.
My little haul...
2026 Kookaburied 999 silver bullion round.
1959 80% silver Canada silver dollar,
1957 90% silver US Dime,
1964 90% silver US Dime,
1888 92.5% Canada 10 Cents,
And knowledge about the Merchant Bank of Canada.
It was fun, learned something new, complimentary drinks and snacks. Some coins I may have paid a collector's premium but since the funds go to financing this non-profit club's operations and expenses, it was worth it.
Their next coin show is back at the Nekkai Center in Burnaby on June 1st.

Haha, I have to admit that when I read 2026 I was like it must be a typo but then I noticed "Kookaburied" and started googling to find what this is about. I had no clue about these coins or at least never registered it properly :)
Nice that you were able to buy a few at the club !LADY !LUV
The Z50Zombucks are a parody silver round series issued by Provident Metals, The Kookaburied is the first release of the Z75 SECOND series. The series appealed to my Gothic slant so I collected and completed the set. Did I have fun with this? You bet I did!
The 2026 date suggests the Zombie apocalypse taking place soon. Also Inflation hurts survivors as the nominal value increased from Z50 to Z75. The appearance of these rounds in the donation auction clearly suggests that at least one other club member is a Stacker. I bet most of them are. I suspect one person who bought up the junk silver. He knew the prices and so I ended up paying above spot with 1959 dollar and the 2 US dimes.
