    How much do you think proof 1 oz Lunar series 1 gold coins would be valued at?

    Any specific years more valuable than others?

    The S1 Dragon cost me a hundred or so more than others. A few had significantly lower mintages, the Ox was one, worth more.

    Around 1700 maybe for the ones in less intense demand? At current bullion price, just guessing. dragafem was trying to sell a pig here not long back - found it .. http://forums.silverstackers.com/topic-55188-fs-gold-coins.html .. that would have been a good buy imo, pig didn't reach his full mintage.

    Thanks finicky,

    I'm referring to proof coins though, not the bullion ones :)

    I thought they only sold the proof 1oz gold coins in a 3-coin set?

    I believe that is true.
    By the looks of it, only just over a thousand of the 3-coin sets minted each year.

    But looks like these ones were split up

    I'm interested in the Horseys!

    How much do you think just the 1 oz proofs would be individually?

    Saw a 1oz gold proof dragon on eBay for 2500 USD.

    Rather overpriced as people would want the 3-coin set and not buy them separately.

    Yeah, that seems overpriced.

    I'd expect them to be somewhere between price of the bullion version and that? Do you think that would be close?

    Hmm. Still think it wouldn't be a wise investment decision as collectors will be going for the complete 3-coin set. Feels odd just getting the 1oz proof on its own.

    Just my opinion!

    Yeah I understand that view.

    But I think I'd much rather the proof version than the bullion version :p
    Just depends on the price difference I guess
