    Hypothetical: if you found out you won a certain prize, how would you collect on it? Here's the details about this hypothetical prize: a large and reputable coin and bullion company offers a free chance to enter to win any 3 different individual (no sets) Lunar coins that have already been minted from the Perth Mint (which means all Lunar 1 series and Lunar 2 series coins up to 2014 are available). You get to take receipt of those 3 coins from this company, delivered to you for free, within 2 weeks of notification that you won (due to shipping time).....

    which 3 different coins do you choose?

    Depends on whether you are purely going for dollar value or whether you actually like any of the coins.

    You can get 10kg Lunar coins if you really want to push the friendship.

    The holey trinity of S1/1 oz Rabbit, Boar, Mouse
    (hole in my collection)
    1/2 oz Proof S1 Mouse, Ox, Tiger is tempting.
    Of course anyone not stupid enough to try and complete a 1/2 oz bullion set before knowing there are no Mouse/Ox/Tiger coins would choose 30kg of gold.
