This is even more amazing Source: http://www.chngc.net/Main/zhuanti/2011/longjnz/cp2.html Definitely what I want!
The design is really quite unimpressive ... Same motif for different shapes. Increased mintage for fan-shaped series 2.
maybe the dragon is out ??? This article translated seems to imply that people are buying tickets to enable them to purchase the 2012 dragon.

Pandaamerica has them listed on their website, not for sale yet. Rang them just before, girl said maybe by the end of the month - no preordering as they don't have a price yet. Ooooh, I'm getting all nervous - it's like a first date all over again, mmmmmmm, wonder if we'll...? "ahem" Sorry - having a bit of a mini fantasy http://www.pandaamerica.com/china_lunar_gold.asp?keyword=China Year&sortby=datedesc
I noticed that Panda America has listed the fan shaped gold dragon as 1/2oz but the CHNGC website has listed the fan shaped gold dragon as 1/3oz.... anybody knows which is the right one?
I would say it's a typo on Pandaamerica's behalf. Thanks Lightsview, I didn't even notice that - I was mainly interested in working out how many 1 kilo gold proof dragons I could buy :lol:
http://www.ebay.com.sg/itm/New-2012...917?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f1020be15 Pretty expensive for a 1oz silver coin
Bit pricey, but to be expected. Maybe can get a better price if you go through him directly and no eBay. Still waiting to see what other suppliers prices are first though Apparently sold out in under half an hour on his store, I'm sure he'll have more at a higher price later though.
All Dragons are for sale on usual ebay store 270854410189 - 1oz flower silver plus gold and coloured are up - better be quick!
You wont get it any cheaper by waiting. The prices are expensive, the mintages of most of them are relatively high - was going to get a few but think I will just stay with a 1oz flower silver dragon to go with my tiger and rabbit - nice little set of 3
