$18,800?? I don't own one and I think the price is out of touch with current market pricing but still this auction is for a scarce, beautiful Great Wall medal: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1985-China-...814?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27fa330b76 .
that's what we call whale price. lol. no way he's getting that price. maybe 5k if he's lucky!! All bets of if we get hyperinflation. lol.
well, a PF68 just sold for 3.6k. And I know for a fact this same seller, flashfire sold one for like 4.5k recently. He has 3 PF69's. I bet he'll get close to 5K a lot sooner than 2 years, try 4-6 months. lol.
Andrew, really nice 1982 Plum Flower Great Wall brass medal....is that the original pouch? So rare to find this medal in original pouch and the condition and color looking so excellent. Thank you for sharing! .
Yes, I is original pouch. I have the original box too. Barsenault has the copper version BUT market price value is around 250-350 USD Brass around USD1.2 to 2.5K
Why is the brass version so much more expensive than the copper? Also, do the Chinese perceive brass as a more desirable metal for medals than copper? .
The mintage for the brass is far lower than the copper great wall. Another typical modern china medal by nanjing mints 2 lovely panda. Nanjing panda have silver, copper and brass. You can get silver and Cooper in the open market only. Silver is 299 mintage, copper is 380 and brass is 100 if my memory is good. First mintage second brass only available to internal circle and not mainly for selling. The brass will only out for open market after one or more year if the price go high. This is my personal view. I might be wrong
I'm a fan. There used to be a nice variety of walls and stairs and whatnot on the other side of the lunar coins.

Awesome medal! Good job with the video...thanks for sharing. People seem to be grabbing up these Chinese medals....nearly USD $2000 for a 70 graded. That's over my paygrade but I'm sure the person who could afford it is thrilled to get such a rare grade. .
