    Back to the secondary market only for me.
    Let somebody else take the premium hit.

    Not going near any of this. Sticking to my strategy - low premium coins for their SILVER value.

    What a Joke ! Why even have mintage limits and mintage's just to circumvent them by different packaging?

    I saw on the Perth Mint site listed 2012 Silver Proof High Relief Four-Coin Set

    Are they going to release previous four years HR version?

    Should've sold my 3-coin dragon proof silver set for 1k when I had the chance :/

    Oh well, glad I bought exactly zero Perth Mint snakes.

    I give up. It is all too hard trying to collect Perth Mint stuff. Feels like I am walking on shifting sand.

    This is quantitative easing bullion style.

    With all these new innovatives, perhaps I should just stick witn 1oz standard bullion and non privy bullion lunar.
    Have bought few high relief dragon, now PM re release at different set version so call HR set.

    Hi Lunardragon

    Gets confusing when visiting Perth's web site because the wording varies from year to year, but the releases so far are proof rectangular coins.

    Here's an example:

    Rabbit

    FOUR 99.9% PURE SILVER PROOF 1OZ COINS
    Each rectangle coin is struck from 1oz of 99.9% pure silver.
    http://www.perthmint.com.au/catalogue/2011-1oz-ag-pr-ci-lunar-rabbit-rectangle-4-coin-set.aspx


    Dragon
    FOUR 99.9% PURE SILVER 1OZ COINS
    Each coin is struck by The Perth Mint from 1oz of 99.9% pure silver in proof quality.

    http://www.perthmint.com.au/catalog...-2012-1oz-silver-rectangle-four-coin-set.aspx


    Cheers

    Why does the Perth Mint even put a date on a coin in the first place. Minting a coin in one year and putting another year on it is just unethical. They can spin it any convenient way they want to but deep down inside they know I am right.
