    Hi there,

    i have noticed that the price of the 2010 1oz Tiger has a much higher premium than the mouse, ox and rabbit.

    Do you notice the same in USA and australia ? I do not see a reason why, but ...

    At the moment it is not possible so easy to get tigers from german dealers to a fair price. I do not have a idea why.

    I found only two dealers who have stock. One ask the following prices for the gold beauties.

    actual Price for selling

    Mouse - 1221
    Ox - 1211
    Tiger - 1396
    Rabbit - 1196

    He is buying the coins for

    Mouse - 1141
    Ox - 1131
    Tiger - 1236
    Rabbit - 1133

    So if you decide to buy and you have the choice - catch the tigers

    Loved the gold tiger design - those scruffy cheeks!
    Really really disliked the silver tiger design - very disappointed

    Personal preference, don't like the design.

    A few months back it was very easy to source Gold S2 tigers anyway, times change.

    Yeah I know, I stand by my point of view that the tiger on Gold is ugly ;)

    Tigers are just cooler animals and thus harder to find and more expensive. I agree with Fish, the gold design is a fail IMO, looks like a logo for a high school football team. The Silver Tiger looks cool as F. These are just my expressed opinions only and do not represent the opinion or official stance of the United States of America :)
