    Everywhere...simultaneously
    Many times, the best discussions are generally those where there is largely little agreement .

    After all, if everyone would be agreeing on all points, what a boring and unproductive discussion that might be. Therefore, I welcome intelligent, rational, and strongly opinionated while still being respectful disagreements....this makes for healthy discussion.

    I welcome and even encourage rational disagreement if there are good points to be made.

    There are two sets. Above: Shanghai Below: Shenyang
    All of them are brass.

    jc888888888,

    Those are some sweet medals you have! The 1987 NY Panda has a twin platinum version and is the only platinum medal issued AFAIK. IIRC, most (if NOT all) of the Panda Coin Show medals are included in Huang Ruiyong's Star Ranking list. One of my favorites is the 1988 Basel Panda where the error gold with 'Pt' has a higher mintage than the non-error gold with 'Au'. :cool:

    Edited to add info on Star Ranking list of 1 troy ounce gold/platinum panda medals from 1987 - 1990:

    jc8s that is a beautiful medal, I definitely would like one. '87 and '88 were two great years for gold panda medals.
