    G'day,
    Just wondering what kind of premium people pay for this package?
    And also slabbed at first 8,000 strikes?

    I have some of the carded 2007 and 2008 koalas. I'd reckon you'd get $100 for the carded and about $70 just for the coin but I suspect the carded ones will go the way of the 2007 kangaroo in years to come.

    Hmm interesting insight. For some, the carded version does not provide enough 'protection' against toning. An example is the 2011 carded version vs the capsule coin, not much premium for carded despite larger difference in number of carded vs capsule.

    Bullion plus tax plus 20%.
    Add further 30% for first strikes.
    Just based on logic !
