    Thanks for sharing the info AndrewLee. Not sure what all this means, but it sounds like the Chinese are taking great steps forward to maintain the integrity of their gold and silver coins. I wonder if this relates to coins and medals, or just coins. Regardless, bravo to them for focusing on doing an even better job.
