    Gotta love Prague...

    Just went to a coin shop, asking about the 2012 dragons - they had no idea what I was on about.

    They finally worked out I wanted 'dragon'. So they brought out a case that contained a 1/2oz 2000 dragon & also a 1oz 2000 dragon.

    Had some old stickers sitting next them...

    799 CZK for 1oz dragon.

    499 CZK for 1/2oz dragon.

    I knew they were super cheap, but did a few calcs on my phone anyway.

    $45 Aussie dollars for a 1oz dragon!!!!

    $28 Aussie dollars for a 1/2oz dragon!!!!

    Needless to say, they are in my pocket. Going to go back later with a written list of coins I'm after... they speak no english.

    I'm sure some won't believe me... so I'll scan the receipt when I get home :))))

    I went back asking for any more 'old Australian coins'... nothing. I think they realised they sold the dragons too cheap :D

    Thanks.

    There is a Treasures of Australia Pearl coin also at the shop for 1600 CZK - approx AU$90.

    They seem to be selling for near double that on ebay.

    The coin doesn't appeal to me, but may be a bargain for someone.
