Stoic, If you come across multiple S2 2oz bu mice You could put me down for the same deal if you wanted happy to buy a couple/few at $330 cheers
Well....indifferent news...a contact in Europe does have access to 2oz 2008 Lunar bu's...not proof, not coloured .....but they are Series 1. Got feelers out across 3 continents so will see what crops up over next month or so.
month or so , got feelers out i thought they were occasionally seen for $ 200 where are they so i think $ 400 is a fair price cause of there rarity thought you would have one in a week or so mouse 1 phoneix 0
^ I said occasionally not every week. Your definition of occasionally as every week vastly differs from most peoples and with that attitude I quite frankly don't feel inclined to assist you now. I will let people know not to bother going out of their way to look for these. Cheers, Stoic.
good luck with the mouse hunt will eagerly wait for the photos and auction i was not looking for one , you made the comment about seeing them for $ 200
One just sold on the forum 30 minutes ago for $200 but with a scuff on the Lizard's cheek. Talking about the S2 dual date 2 oz Lunar Mouse.
That had been for sale all the while this convo was going on, but being dual dated I assume it's S1 and not S2 and the guys here are talking about S2. There's no such thing as a S2 dual date is there? From what I understand, they released Series 1 Mouse, Ox and Tiger in 2007 to be inline with their Gold Coin series, so those 3 S1's are dual dated being made in 2007 but representing 08,09,10 where as the S2 was just released in 2008 as per it's year
S1 don't fetch the same $$$ as S2. The mintage is irrelevant. S2 is a more "collected" series therefore it fetches more. malachii
s1 2oz can easily fetch $400 or close to it and I think much more collectable than s2 . s2 mouse in my view is a hype.
Maybe. I can only comment on the demand and enquiries I get through the shop and through talking with other dealers. I know I have a list of people chasing s2 bullion coins (including the mouse). I have a very much shorter list of people chasing s1. I can source most of the s1 stuff as people need it at a reasonable price. s2 availability (pre 2014 stuff) is very patchy at best and prices are rarely reasonable. malachii
so whats going on here? did stoic source any 2oz mouse? seemed like to me easy money could have been made...
If he manages to get a 2 oz mouse (series 2, BU) for that price then that's a great job. I had to pay close to $500 for one, and that was a few years ago. I still have it and won't be selling it because I want the full set and getting another one seems close to impossible. Every Ebay lead I've ever seen ends up being a coloured one or otherwise a scam.
