Important Tariff Update | Helping U.S. Collectors

The Ultimate Chase Is Here:Star Wars™ Trading Coins Introduce the Golden Agoro  Our Trading Coins line is evolving, and in our most ambitious release to date, we’re introducing a new chase mechanic that takes collecting to the next level. One box. One card. One ultimate collectible.  Hidden inside one of the upcoming Star Wars™: The Original Trilogy Trading Coins boxes is something truly extraordinary: a Golden Agoro card. The lucky collector who finds it will unlock the rarest Star Wars trading coin ever minted – a one-of-one, 1oz pure gold Death Star II.  Just one.  How It Works: Each Star Wars Trading Coins box includes two trading coins, and hidden beneath the coin on the right is a small envelope. Inside, you’ll find a card. Most will contain a message confirming you didn’t find the Golden Agoro this time – and that’s okay!  But one card will look different. You’ll know it the moment you see it.  Stamped with “Congratulations! You’ve just pulled a Golden Agoro”, this card is your ticket to something truly special. It confirms you’ve found the one-of-one chase.  To claim your prize:  Scratch the panel on the card to reveal your unique code. Email the code to the address provided. We’ll take care of the rest.  Your reward? The Ultimate Chase. The 1oz Pure Gold Death Star II.  Minted from 1oz of solid gold, this is the only one that exists. The collector who pulls the Golden Agoro will own a piece of Star Wars history that no one else ever can.  The Biggest Chase Yet  Our Trading Coins have always been about bringing a premium, precious collectible experience to fans. This new mechanic is our biggest step yet – combining the thrill of the chase with the ultimate one-of-one.  Collectors love the mystery, the reveal, and the possibility of holding something truly rare in their hands. And now, that thrill has been set to lightspeed.  Good luck – and May the 4th be with you. 

Whether you own an ultra-rare Disney Trading Coin, a premium MLB piece, or a collection of Star Wars Movie Poster pieces, proper care will ensure your Agoros remain pristine for years to come.  Here’s everything you need to know about preserving your precious metal pieces at their best.    1. Keep It in the Capsule  Agoro coins and collectibles come encased in high-quality capsules—not just for presentation, but for protection. These capsules shield against dust, moisture, and accidental handling that can mark the metal’s surface.  Can you take your coin out? Absolutely. But be warned: mirror finishes, especially on proof coins, are highly susceptible to fingerprints and micro-abrasions. The oils on your skin can leave marks that are difficult to remove, so if you do handle them, do so with  cotton gloves  and on a soft, clean surface.  2. Store in a Stable Environment  Precious metals may be resistant to tarnish and corrosion, but improper storage can still impact their condition. Here’s what to avoid:  Humidity & Moisture – Silver can develop tarnish over time if exposed to excess humidity. Store your collectibles in a dry, climate-controlled space.  Direct Sunlight – Prolonged exposure to UV light can cause discoloration to packaging.  Extreme Temperatures – Fluctuating temperatures can cause condensation inside the capsule, potentially damaging the coin. Keep your collection in a consistent environment.    3. Avoid Excessive Handling  Unlike standard bullion, Agoro collectibles are crafted with high-quality finishes designed to elevate their detail and aesthetic. The more you handle them, the greater the risk of wear, scratches, or accidental drops. If you must take a piece out of its capsule:  Use  cotton gloves  to prevent fingerprints.  Hold it by the  edges only—never touch the face of the coin.  Place it on a  soft, lint-free surface  to avoid scratches.  If a fingerprint does appear, it’s best to leave it alone rather than risk damage by trying to remove it.    4. Keep Packaging & Certificates Safe  Your Agoro collectible isn’t just about the metal—it’s a complete experience. Limited-edition pieces come with custom packaging, display boxes, and certificates of authenticity, all of which add to their long-term value.  Store packaging in a dry, dust-free place.  Keep COAs flat and away from sunlight to prevent fading.  Avoid excessive handling of paper materials to prevent creasing or wear.  5. Be Mindful of Cleaning (Or Don’t Clean at All)  A well-preserved collectible  shouldn’t need cleaning.  But if you do notice tarnish on a silver piece (which can happen naturally over time), avoid commercial cleaners or abrasive materials. Instead:  Use a  soft, lint-free cloth  (like a microfiber cloth) to gently remove dust.  If absolutely necessary, consult a professional before attempting any deep cleaning, especially with proof finishes.  6. Display with Care  Want to show off your Agoro collection? Go for it—just be smart about how.  Keep your pieces in their original capsules to maintain their condition.  If using a display case, ensure it's in a controlled environment away from direct sunlight and humidity.  Avoid touching or repositioning pieces frequently to minimize handling wear. 

Not All Precious Metals Are Created Equal When it comes to gold and silver, there’s a world of difference between standard bullion linked to spot price and precious metal collectibles. While both hold intrinsic value, collectibles bring something more—artistry, exclusivity, and the thrill of owning a piece of culture. Understanding these differences can help you choose what best aligns with your passion and goals. What Are Precious Metal Collectibles? Precious metal collectibles are designed not only for their metal value but also for their artistic appeal, exclusivity, and licenses. These pure silver and gold collectibles can take the shape of coins, miniatures, or other forms featuring intricate designs and craftsmanship. At Agoro, we specialize in officially licensed  collectibles, offering fans unique pieces that go beyond investment. Key Characteristics of Precious Metal Collectibles: Proof Strike Quality: Unlike standard bullion, our collectibles use proof strike techniques to make the collectibles, resulting in high-polish finishes and exceptional detail. Official Licensing: Our products feature officially licensed designs from beloved franchises like Harry Potter, Disney, Star Wars, and MLB. Limited Mintages: We intentionally keep our mintages very low, ensuring each piece is exclusive and highly collectible. For example, a 1000 mintage means only 1000 of the collectible will ever be made. Varied Designs and Shapes: Our collectibles come in a range of designs, shapes, and sizes, offering something unique with every release. Artistry and Craftsmanship: Every collectible is treated as a work of art, with meticulous attention to detail. Special Packaging and Certificates: Many of our products include premium packaging and a certificate of authenticity, adding to their desirability. Emotional and Cultural Value: Licensed collectibles often carry emotional connections for fans and can serve as cherished keepsakes. If this sounds like you, head check out our range of collectibles! What Is Bullion? Bullion refers to physical gold, silver, or other precious metals in the form of bars, ingots, or coins. The primary purpose of bullion is as an investment vehicle or a hedge against economic instability. Bullion is typically valued based on the spot price of the metal, with minimal premiums added for minting and distribution. The appeal of bullion lies in its intrinsic metal value, and it is often purchased in bulk by investors looking to preserve wealth over time. Key Characteristics of Bullion: Simple Design: Typically features basic designs, often with minimal artistic detail. High Mintage: Produced in large quantities that number in tens  or even hundreds of thousands. Licensing: Bullion usually lacks any branding or licensed designs. Investment Focus: Primarily bought for its metal content rather than artistic or collectible value. If you're looking for traditional bullion investments, head to New Zealand Mint for high-quality gold and silver bullion products. Why Do Collectibles Cost More Than Bullion? The price of precious metal collectibles often includes premiums beyond the spot price of gold or silver. These premiums reflect the added value of: Licensing Fees: Official partnerships with major brands. Design and Production Costs: Creating intricate, proof-quality pieces. Limited Mintage Premiums: The exclusivity of low-run products. Brand and Artistic Value: Collectibles often appreciate in value over time, especially when they are part of limited-edition releases.
