It was 2356rmb or 374usd, in CGC shop, present for my girlfriend for St Valentine day. But now she want Ural Owl . I am kicking myself in the ass why i didnt show her this coin before , bcoz i like it so much first time i see it as some of our members avatar.
Oh Wow! Where can i get that Hello Kitty coin?!!!! I know someone who would really like that coin. Nice PFs Musemellow! I like the 1987s. Hard to get in MS69s - and you got matching numbers also.
Nice 1987 PF69s. I only have the S10Y, the 5oz quite hard to buy. The Hello Kitty coin is Tuvalu/NZ Mint? I wanted to get one but given up since it's quite expensive, rather buy pandas hahaha.
China Gold Coin shop,2356rmb, if not have in Shangai, i can buy here next week for u send it to u, payment u can make after u get it. @fishball-It is Niue 10$ coin, made by PAMP, mintage 1500pcs.
Thanks yennus! the coins is a true pair Yup FB, It is rare to find at 69 especially for 5oz one 5oz 1987 isn't the rarest one, but it is the FIRST 5oz for panda series one 5oz PF69 is for sale on ebay now, auction US$445: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/China-19...943?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2ebc302707
Thanks Mi Lao Shu... I'll try to head to the nearest CGC and see if they have any Hello Kitty... always in hot demand!
Just got my grade back on this coin ... 69 ... yippee !!! Very happy since I paid less than the pricepedia OMP/67 price and only 6 of these (including mine) have graded 69. 750 authorized minatge ... how many actually remaining ?
Great job musemellow ! I have seen those 1987 5 oz tough to grade as over time they develop toning and also some type of "flaking" is the best I can describe it. Last year I bought a set like this in a local coin store for $350 as the 5 oz was in bad shape but the 1 oz was flawless. I sent both coins to NCS/NGC and NCS did a great job on the 5 oz as it graded 67 which I determined almost ungradable before sending. The 1 oz came back PF69. I sold the 5 oz for $450 and kept the 1 oz not bad a free coin. Anyway your coins look fantastic man congratulations !
Thanks comeaux, I believe that this coin will be harder and harder to get a 69 from NGC/PCGS as years passed (25 years old coin)
Yes I agree with you ... this coin only has about 30% that have graded NGC PF69 Ultra Cameo Compare this to say a S10Y 2009 Panda that has about 80% or higher in 69/70 grade and it's very apparent how older coins like these are difficult to consistantly attain high grades. Especially these larger 5 oz coins ... anyways you have some extremely nice coins here man, very happy for you ! Good luck on yours tamo42 ... the masters like you seem to always do well !
its my new adquisition: NCS/NGC ms69 PANDA MIRRORED RING a few months ago i think 1300 uss for a 1 oz silver coin is a crazy now i think is cheap.
The 2 Varieties of 2003 panda, Frosted and Satin Can't see clearly the difference of the bamboo background from the picture But we can see the differences in mint seal pattern, coin capsule and panda paw
