Been hassling my local PO for proofs, they just happened to have one of these in stock; My questions, i know nothing about them, opinions, would it better to hold on to it and let it appreciate or do you think they are near there top and won't go considerable higher? Also value? i seen one on eBay for $800, that a far call or way over the top? Also with the proofs, what is their value at the moment? Cheers guys, Reeve.
congrats on your find. the typeset. is the best of the collection of the dragon series.(well apart from the ones that pm minted for china). i for one wish i had more typesets. i would hold onto them and sell them next year when year around January or Chinese new year. thats the best time to sell.
flog em and get some real silver while it's cheap.... you may be able to sell it for 20% more in 2012 but will silver spot be 100% more??
if silver spot increases the proof value will increase to. it won't stay the same. otherwise everyone will be getting a bargain.
price on proof have not fallen significantly with spot and I would assume they would not rise significantly with spot. Look at the massive drop recently and how much the mint reduced the numi starting point. Numi and spot = disconnect
Sell the typeset, take the profit, buy 1oz Mice. There will be 300,000 minted just like all the other S2 1oz bullion, but their premiums are low at the moment. When it comes around to 2019, you will probably have had 12 years of 300,000 1oz coins each year. Mouse = Rabbit = Tiger = Goat. Still a premium for Dragon and maybe Snake.
This was my thought pattern, i was thinking that yes they may gain a small extra premium but would it still have the same buying power hmmmm Cheers for the adivce guys.
They had some coloured proofs, i wasn't sure of their value, i think they are going for around 160-180? i might pop back tomorrow after work.
