    Will be interesting to see how they police this at the bullion desk.

    You dont need an account, or to give ID for the purchase of 1 roll generally. So what would stop someone lining up in the morning, lining up in the afternoon, lining up the next morning, lining up the next afternoon and getting 80 coins?

    Maybe they force ID checks on this one? Will be hard to police other than 'you look familiar', no dragons for you!

    5 Gold 1oz Dragons... ~$10000
    20 Silver 1oz Dragons... ~$1000

    Gold Mintage / Silver Mintage = 0.1
    Gold Limit / Silver Limit = 0.25

    So silver is more popular?

    Gold dragon has a 10% of the mintage of the Silver one but the limit does not reflect this ratio :p

    Perhaps some dealers bailed on high spot Gold price and the ugly design.

    They should just restrict 2oz and 1kg and it would take pressure off the 1oz. IMHO...

    1kg will probably end up with one of the highest mintages. Europe is going to be invaded by Dragons.

    lol @ the comment...which one of you was it, fess up!

    ahaha

    Also funny how they put the Koala in a tiny tiny brochure as opposed to the full sized image like the Dragon and Kooka. Even they know it's ugly.

    10 kg = 321.5 oz.

    A lot of stackers can afford that.

    Oh, FFS :rolleyes:

    Koala is asleep. Totally appropriate design, I reckon - when have you ever seen one awake? Lazy buggers :D

    What about if you call up for a sale? Can you still get a roll of silver dragons then?

    Or does it have to be online?

    You're assuming there will be any left by the end of the first day!
