    I haven't noticed anything wrong but I don't see 100% (need correctional "devices"). :) Also I must admit that I don't watch my coins (at least not (semi)bullion) with magnifying glass or anything similar or from very close distance. Can't imagine examining this coin for longer period of time. :)
    Coin (at least for me) looks much nicer than it came out on pictures. :) Strangely no seller want to upload better pictures. :/

    I think I've written this before but... making horse's legs is supossedly the hardest part for any artist.

    I'm now evem more curious to see comments of other people regarding the coin. :)

    Yes, there is almost no doubt that new horses will follow.

    I think I'm going to like these so much, that if there is still a roll of 20 around in a week, I'm buying it...giving up a little for the lunar horse in the fall...can't beat 1st in a series, and only 10,000. Come to papa. Stark & Chris, save me some, would ya?

    Why should you buy from them for 79 if you can have it for 55-57. Simply math :)

    Couldn't agree more. Just funny to see them gouging, and not getting any bids, but I'm sure they'll come in time. They seem to be harder to come by!

    This guy had several left...sold 2 and then pulled the rest. He probably thought these are too valueable to let go at these prices. :) I don't blame him...these are better than coins going for over a 100.00, and it is a series...and 10,000 minted...and COA. LOL.

    feeBay prices are around 40. I believe when PM will make "official" relase the prices will go up. I'm tempted to buy 20 more if I can get them for less than 40, but don't have much money left so I'm just probably day dreaming.... :)

    Yeah, me too. Fun to dream though. I should be happy with my 22 stack, but my heart knows this is going to be a big hit. As I told Chrissilver, if I knew these were coming, I would have save for it, and bought a 100. Oh well. There's always next year's issue! If I can get 20 next week for around 55 USD, I'll buy...if not, PM lunar you get left overs. Lol.

    No surprise when that is equivalent to 60 ( Euros ) and in Germany the coin sells for about 37 including 7% sales tax.
    Apmex either didn't score a great deal or are maybe chancing their arm ?
    If they get stuck with inventory then price will become more realistic.

    Heheh. :) I'm waiting for 20 more, but would easily go with 40(0) more. :) I also think this series will be doing well.
    I'm (trying) saving something for lunar, but prefer coins that are minted in 10k or less. :) And it's always nice to have some reserve for CIT coins. :)

    Probably man who got idea for series. :) Btw, chrissilver, have you got your tubes yet?:)

    Dunno if I've said this before but COAs for these coins are really nice. Not just some "normal" paper. And they also have shiny watermark? (dunno the English word, same can be seen on euro banknotes) with PM signs/birds.
    :)

    I think apmex don't care how quick they sell them, they only have 93, they will sell them at these prices easily once everyone else has ran out of stock. I think apmex's main purpose of buying them was because they want to be the dealer who has the largest variety of different products. Apmex has lots of buyers who don't mind paying slightly high prices because they know they can find what they are looking for at Apmex.

    Yeah just like the yellow bellies snake....they started out at 129.00 and now for 5 or more, they are 74.00. Hope they don't sell, and bump them down to 50. LOL
