A tactic to get more money...not worth it IMO...just like the kookaburra set they cam out with (25th anniversary edition) Cheers, HAPPY STACKING
There is no 10th anniversary set of 1oz silver koalas like with former the kookaburra 25th anniversary set- The image shown at PM bullion blog:http://www.perthmintbullion.com/Blog/au/Blog.aspx is only showing an image gallery how Australian Koala silver coins have evolved to become one of our most eagerly anticipated annual coin launches See here the genuine PM pic from that blog post dated January 09 2017_ But stay tuned for a little surprise in March ;-)
I meant, the difference in price what you pay for a 10yr anniversary set of the koalas vs buy the first 10yrs of the koala series. Cheers, HAPPY STACKING
Probably you did not notive the following anniversary 10oz Koala proof coin is coming in March: http://www.perthmint.com.au/forthcoming-releases.aspx
I was working on unveiling that coin for more than a year already. It is true. Just read the treasurers notes her: https://www.legislation.gov.au/Details/F2016L00140/Explanatory Statement/Text or short the cite "10th Anniversary Silver Australian Koala - Silver Collector Coin The design on the 10th Anniversary Silver Australian Koala (10oz) silver proof coin, consists of a representation of a koala clinging to a tree branch superimposed on a patterned background. The coin includes the following inscriptions 'AUSTRALIAN KOALA', '2007 - 2017' and the initials of the designer Shevaun Buschenhofen 'SB'."
Nice coin, albeit pricey at 80 AUD/oz. I would rather use that money to spend on MS69 koala coins and start a collection from 2007 to present.
