    Do you think so?, i notice some scuffing if you look close, but my screen is not great, im using a tv without great resolution.

    Im not worried if i get a toned one one day, just need one and am prepared to wait.

    I have only been collecting for a year and have not really seen many 1990 in sales to know.

    I've been told by a certain dealer that they should have toning
    He even told me how to clean them

    NP lunarowl thanks for letting me know, i should have posted in a kook "2008 kook expensive thread" thread as people will be expecting snake talk.

    I just posted as i was surprised, i thought maybe one bid above mine but it went better than any lunar series 1 1oz probably.

    Which is why i posted mainly.

    When im rich again i may post a WTB thread.

    I am fussy and dont even like scratchs on my capsules :).

    I am sure you would now more than most, i have not even seen one in real life.

    I see faint lines gong from top right to lower left but would not know what it was until in my hand.

    They sure are.. got a roll at $39 each and a few singles at $38 each...

    I note BB still has bulk amounts.. people seem to be down around 3-4 from the original purchase already (unless they purchased at a decent price through gold stackers).

    The privy release might rip the lunar snake a new AHOle

    Interesting how "Year of the snake" in Russian is "Year of the snake", "coins" in German is "coins" and "sold out" in some other languages is "sold out". The must have some well paid linguists working over at the mint...

    Ok 26 Rolls of Snakes available at Bullion Bourse for $758 per roll.. $37.90 each...

    The IMPOSSIBLE happend.. (lol) you can get snakes in the 37's.

    Just cos the majoirty said it would not happen, didnt mean schitt.. just like Schiff says.. Just cos they are the majority does not mean they are right!

    Too early to say its a PM backlash.. im slowly dumping my PM bullion as well as the few Numi items i own.. seems like there is a run on dumping them though so its obviously a bad time when we are competing with eachother to get rid of them!
