    Yennus had some copper Pandas for sale before at SydneyStackers Panda meet a while back.

    Send him a PM and ask if he has any left.

    Hey 98PandaBear... nice name :)

    Yeah, I got a handful of these 1993 Panda bears ($35AUD each). They are in decent condition, fresh from a roll, but I doubt any of them would grade above MS65.

    These copper Pandas were apparently very plentiful, but finding one in good condition is near impossible. I don't have access to the NGC database, but I'm guessing there are very few high grade 1993 copper Pandas around.

    If someone got a MS70 on a 1993 Copper Panda, i'm sure this would sell near the price of gold if not more :)

    Panda bears... it is like modern day alchemy...
    Turning Copper Pandas into silver bullion...
    Turning Silver Pandas into gold bullion...
    Turning Gold Pandas into profits! :)
    Platinum Pandas... they is also beautiful! :)

    Here is a link that discusses Copper Pandas (with pics) and my 2000 Mirror Panda:

    http://forums.silverstackers.com/to...3-copper-pandas-and-2000-mirrored-pandas.html

    *Sniff* I miss that 2000 Mirror Panda... There is a lot of truth in what Tamo42 says:

    "That's the problem with being a dealer, you end up regretting everything you sell. That guy will be kicking himself in 5 years."

    I'm not a dealer though, just a humble collector.

    I'll take one! Yeah not really not big on the value of it this is a pure collector type of buy! I have been buying Silver bullion for a few years but just now getting into the collecting, and just want one. :) Just let me know, i'm an American and can pay paypal. Love these pandas! :) I'm hooked! :)

    Postage to the USA is expensive though :(

    Almost as much as the coin is.

    Plenty on USA eBay from about $45, postage should be reasonable for you.

    Maybe even buy a stabbed or carded one for around the $50 mark :)
