my hands were clean. that was an ink stain that wouldn't come off, and I never touched the face although it looked like someone else had. It was in a plastic flip and i wanted to look at it with a loupe (and take photos of it.)

well, I haven't bought this puppy yet. Doing well, getting settled back in Tejas.

What would be a fair market value for a raw 1988 1 oz Platinum panda? I've got the opportunity to buy one. It weighs out ok, diameter is good, and looks good under the loupe. My coin guy says there is a coin show coming up where we can get it verified.

Sweet looking ride. My dad, an ER doc, calls them murdercycles.

Re: above I think everyone knows deep down that if there is worldwide famine - something comparable to an apocalypse - then nothing will have as much value as water and food.

not "are." it's "were," bro

Why? :| 250kg is only about the mass of three average sized men.

The note is still quite crisp for a circulated note, there are a couple creases and light folds near the corners, not in the middle. There are no stain or marks.

Thank you Leafy Sea Dragon. Where might I see examples of condition? I know it's not UNC but I don't know how to grade otherwise. And how do you know what the year is? I thought the first 2 numbers were the year ... obviously wrong.

Also, condition is pretty good. No rips or holes. I suspect 50 notes didn't get much circulation anyway.

I'm trying to see what this might be worth. It belongs to a friend. All I've managed to figure out is that it's a 1986 ... I think. Serial number is YYZ 866918 Cheers

I have noticed he is quiet during the gifts of pullbacks, as he calls them. I have seriously measured this but now that you mention it, I have asked my self the same question as you, lurkalil

I agree with the Bob Chapman call. ... was that too soon?

Divisible tom-foolery is a bloody novelty. There's plenty of pre-decimal Aussie sterling. The florins are 1/3 oz. How convenient is that? '66 50's are a smidgen more than 1/3 oz. If you're going to turn something into scrap by breaking it up, might as well pay scrap prices to begin with...

Pictures?

Ah so that explains why only about 6 weeks ago you were baffled as to why someone would ask more for a 1991 1/2oz gold Panda than a 2012 1/2oz gold dragon that you saw online somwhere! :lol: Just teasing you, mate - all good. That's about what I bought as first purchase (30 oz of Engelhard...

Probably $1200/$20 Right now working on lowering dollar cost average for my stack(s) while maintaining same weight (+/- 30 oz). I'm still in the black but the spot price keeps chasing my DCA down! I hope it doesn't catch up. All this work when I could have just not bought above $40! :rollseyes:

I think I got you beat. Back when I was 13 my dad convinced me (made me) buy 30 ounces. Price: $150. Thanks dad. :D

You reckon it could go higher, or is the sharp spike going to cause some technical problems?

lol yeah, I did not do business with them. The picture was to show how I circumvented doing any business with them.
