    Anyone familiar with these or know how long they've been around?

    I picked one up today and was surprised to find the cert number to be in the low triple digits. Does this seem odd to anyone else? I understand these have been available for a couple of weeks locally already and find it surprising that such a relatively low numbered bar would make it down here instead of being sold in Switzerland.

    Anyone else picked a bar from ABC Sydney recently?

    I know they are very new to ABC and have not heard of many floating around unless they were sold a while ago as you dont see them being traded on the forums.

    What are they like in real life? I saw a photo somewhere, they look a little uninspiring if I am correct?

    Nice as far as bars go. About the size of a playing card with the lady fortuna stamped on the front. IMO better than the PM 10 oz bars but the PM 10 oz coins trump them easily.

    You sure you saw the right ones?
    Pamp are pretty much the bees neez when it comes to quality and presentation. I'm pretty sure the pamp 10's are minted.
    I have a Perth Mint 10'er and imho they are pretty ordinary bars.

    I remember the days when I thought that! But now there just second place in my mind. ;)

    Minted bars are definitely the way to go, if you an get them for a reasonable premium.

    In favour of your own bars?
