    Hi all,
    I've been offered 3 2011 kooks for my 1 Oz bullion dragon by a fella at work. Interested in your thoughts as to whether this seems like a fair trade.
    Cheers

    Depends on how many other dragons you have.

    I wouldn't let go of the few that I have for that price, although it is a fair price. Once the new Dragons come out the 2000 ones will be even more popular.

    Nope. Too cheap I reckon.

    2000 Dragon should be pulling $140+ but I wouldn't part with mine for that amount. Sitting on them.

    I'd keep the dragon just because it has more potential to rise in value than 3 kooks :p

    Word to the wise, Rabbits are going for..what ~$44 each? 3x44=$132

    You'll be asking for more than $132 for a plain jane 1 ouncer dragon!

    It is about right if you wanted to sell your dragon at current market rates. Personally I'd sit on the Dragon. Its probability of increasing (numismatic terms) is greater than that of the kooks BUT (like everything there is a but), if you think spot silver will be increasing, then you would have 3 ounces of silver going up as opposed to 1 ounce of silver going up.

    $250 for a Proof Dragon seems to be about right I would have thought. $150 or so for the Rabbit I would have thought. About $100 more for the pair than I would have thought.

    Yeah prices are in that range so give or take $400, but $505 is a bit crazy :|

    The guy who won probably set his price at $600, check the bidding history lol

    And I bought a proof rabbit and a proof dragon last year from a coin dealer. Rabbit $90 Dragon $100. Seems prices have moved north quite a bit in the 9 months since September.
