Not sure if this has been covered but can anyone say when the 2016 Panda is released? The real one, not one of the peripheral ones. As a bulk buyer of kooks and lunars someone on this forum convinced me that Pandas are a better bet. I don't know what I'm doing most of the time but the more volume I get the nicer it all looks. The thing bugging me at the moment is Monkeys vs Kangaroos vs Pandas. Max out one or spread across all. It's a mystery.
 
I've got buckets of goats and 2015 kooks already. Only a few 2015 Pandas, though. I'm hoping spot is still low when 2016 PM sets come out but not sure when 2016 Panda is out. I've been doing a little buying but I wan my next volume buy to be 2016 stuff.

why not buy 2015 now since silver spot is low?


price for Panda does NOT float too much with the spot silver price. I bought several 2015 panda from providentmetals on July 17 paid $23.27, the spot was a little above $15, now is $14.6x, I just looked at it, the price is $23.33 or so

APMEX price was a little lower than Providentmetals when I bought it, and now, about the same. And seems provident does not do grading, on Panda at least, so coins are not cherry picked. But APMEX sells graded too, then their must be picked through.

This is the difference between paper and physical price. Wall street can manipulate all they want, but physical price is NOT necessarily follows.
 
One thing to consider for the 2016 Panda is that they will be going metric. The 2015 1 troz ounce will be 30 grams in 2016. Design is usually released around Oct then coins are out late Nov, IIRC.
 
Quick question - any idea usually when 2015 pandas will bump up in premiums straight from bulliondealers (in australia at least)? Is it after the annoucement of the 2016s or some other date?

I do a quick flip and not likely for me to wait USA send to Singapore.

Bank wire and clearance of cheque is a pain for me.

Usually when BoC starts to make next year coin, so no more 2015 coins will be minted any more. but since the 2015 mintage must be in millions, do not count on significant appreciation in a long time, just IMHO
