    Be careful where you buy from , majority of these coins have been cleaned with rubber erasers or solvent ,the korean guy I bought sets from informed me.......NGC will kick them back as cleaned if you go to grade them ... if the coins look too clean and don't have a patina/ toning,they have been cleaned ............. just an FYI

    290715945841 here is a great example of cleaned /altered surface coins ,if you guys have copper penny,s in your currency look at one that is 15 years old ,it don't look like that:),they need to have a red brown glow,when NCS properly cleans a copper coin that patina is left .................I am not an expert by no means ,but know a couple of US cent collectors,who I go to shows with who are and have picked up some tips from them.

    here is a picture of a coin graded by NGC..........see the color difference? 120865082820,:) panda has the most survivors as being the national symbol of China folks did not spend them ,they held on to them, keep in mind ,15 years ago in china you could eat a good meal for 5Y so people spent them ,these where circulated coins............,the true untouched survivor,s where packaged and sold in Chinese domestic tourist locations like Guilin......thats what you are looking for uncirculated versions ,that where plucked from circulation and where assembled as sets years ago.......................
