Spotted Atkinsons are doing 1oz lunar dragons at 31.14 inc. VAT. Thats the cheapest iv'e seen them anywhere here in the UK. If I had some spare cash i'd snap a load up but already blown the budget for this week http://atkinsonsthejewellers.com/shop.php?sec=prod&prod=1387
That's a hell of a great price. Using XE.COM fo currency conversion, 31.14 = A$46.57. I picked mine up from Ainslie Bullion (big dealer) on 21/09/2012 for $46.23. IMO, its highly unlikely you'll ever get a better price in the UK. Recommend buying a roll of 20 asap; ask if you can put down a deposit. Correction... with the privy mark. OK, not sure what the deal is then... whether it be good or bad or whatever. These days there are so many dragons, everywhere, its hard to know what's good anymore whatever, at least they can still be melted down.
Thank you. Well, its about time! I was wondering how long it would be before someone would notice. Oh, and because you were the first to pass this test, I'll be shipping 10 oz of fine gold to you. It'll be sent via Platinum Post tomorrow. Cheers
this privy may be the destroyer of all previous privy coins. as a lunar set, it can not fit in. the fireball from the dragon is replaced with this lion privy mark. in terms of price, it is not very likely to reach 70s each coins, like we saw for the BU dragons. it would make to the lowest privy for privy coins. not sure it has a place for privy lovers or not.
That is a great price. I bought 2 rolls from the German supplier and with shipping that averaged out at 32.05 a coin. Go for it !!
FYI - just purchased this coin today from CoinInvestDirect, price each 29.72 including VAT. With UPS shipping an order for 20 coins worked out at 30.35 each
Wow thats a great price. But why is this version so much cheaper just because it has a lion privvy mark.
I think this is the real price and not an artificial high price like the first 1oz Dragon. It is often worth checking the buy back price of coins from bullion traders. Compare the 1oz Dragon against the other sizes. Both 1oz and 5oz are out of proportion with all the other Dragons. That is market forces I guess. The Berlin Bear Privy Dragon has a lower mintage than its predecessor so theoretically it should become more sought after and rise in price. However, for reasons unknown, it might not reach the same heights. Time will tell but right now it seems to be a good deal and I certainly am buying especially at current spot rates.
Avoid the privy version like the plague. Its neither a bullion price nor a semi-numismatic price. You'd do better to get more bang for your buck and buy bullion than these privy coins.
Not sure I follow you here. I have seen many privy marked coins attract a premium over the non marked coin because it is different and often minted in lower numbers so becoming more numismatic / collectable. As for 1oz Dragons the current price is almost that of a 2oz bullion coin. Dragons are bullion coins so only worth their weight in silver, like a Koala for example. Being able to buy the 1oz Dragon with a small privy mark marginally higher than other 1ouncers seems to be a smart buy right now. Anyone else disagree ?
I agree. If a person is in the market for 1oz silver bullion coins, the privy is a very good selection. Having the first privy lunar coin is a no brainer! H
Sorry not intellectual enough post for B_S & one 4.. Note to self : must not use sense of humour in a post without adding some jargon about something to make myself appear to be highly intellectual to other's. sorry B_S & one 4 - that's my bad
