    What order would you purchase the following in if you could only buy 1 at a time?

    I may be able to stretch to 2 of the 1/2 oz's this time around so which are the most valuable/rarest -

    1999 1oz Rabbit - 843
    2004 1/2oz monkey - 429
    2006 1/2oz dog - 429
    2007 1/2oz pig - 429

    The monkey is the lowest mintage wise (4228) (Probably because of the design). I would say the Pig second (7694) and then the dog (5767). I am saying this because of the designs...again.

    My favorites of the entire series are:
    the 1999 gold and silver Lunar Rabbits
    Today I ordered these:
    1996 Australian 1 oz gold Lunar Rat
    1999 Australian 1 oz gold Lunar Rabbit - no capsule, with abrasions
    1999 Australian 10 oz silver Lunar Rabbit
    2008 Australian 1 oz silver Lunar Mouse

    All overpriced, but sometimes I don't care.

    Altima, I guess the 'abrasions' gave it away.

    The S1 Ox has the lowest mintage of all the 1oz gold lunars.

    I am partial to the snake design. Really nice in hand. If I were picking from the one's you had listed though I would take the rabbit.
