Hi, last year the PM canceled the 5 oz and 10oz Rabbits very nearly. There are not much 5 and 10 oz Rabbits sold, so maybe the rabbit mintage may be lower than the also low Mouse. Year of the rabbit is not over now, but they wont ... I think the mint will also cancel some dragon early to keep market strong for the sizes outside the 1oz coins. What do you think maybe canceled first ? My tipp: 2 oz dragons will be canceled first ninteno
...as mentioned to me today - Rabbit 5oz and 10oz could be 'sleepers' with high premiums to follow in due time based on limited mintage 2oz might go first but struggle to understand why 4x1/2oz is VERY close to the same price as a 2oz? that said will go the 1/2oz first to be goneski
I recon the 1/2oz is the odd one out. Most people are going for the 2oz size because they can't get the 1oz anymore.
I doubt any will be cancelled. The Perth Mint bought a new press to push up production and without producing 1oz's they can keep other sizes pumping.
The 2012 Dragon series will be a cash cow for the mint and I reckon they will want to milk it all the way to September 2012 when the Snake will be released....
1/2oz, 2oz and 5oz now suspended by the Mint -> I think just ordering from them directly but not sure.
Temporary halt in taking orders - not a cancellation. Looks like they're trying to rebuild some inventory before accepting more orders in those sizes, with the 1/2oz coming back online first.
I don't think they'll cancel 1/2 oz coin, with silver price heading towards $50 again and beyond I think 1/2 oz silver will become more popular in the near future.
