Anyone else have this debate?

Which one to buy? A roll of 2014 20 kooks or a sheet of 2014 30 Pandas (if cost per coin is the same)? Tough decision.

The kook is lower mintage and no issues with spotting
The panda sure is purty, but 8 million and spotting issues (??).

Thoughts?
 
Just what I figured...a roll of kooks coming up. :-). Although in fairness to our panda friends, this is an Australian centric site. :-)

True, but I certainly havent forgot the re-minting fiasco---piss on kooks :P

You'll forget in time, right? Time heals all wounds? Plus new folks coming to the market, falling in love with the kooks....give me, give me...and I have 200 of the 2006's...only 87,000 of those bad boys. Actually have a couple thousand of all years....Sweet Jesus. I see these (all kooks) only going up in value.
 
haha seriously?

You can have a China coin of 8 million or a low mintage perfect Aussie Kook

Same price? Kooks wins for me every time.

Not a couple thousand of each year. LOL. Couple thousand of all years. :P. Sent you a couple of teaser pics. :D
 
i have personally seen spotted kooks and pandas, thus I am pretty sure kooks are not immune to spots.

among the 2 I'll go for pandas as panda collector base is much larger than kooks.

kooks going up in value?where?when? I had a hard time to move a box of 2005(original in original box) for $32.50each...go figure the market and the stackers ...
 
I think the panda market is stronger at the moment, I'd be more inclined to lock 30 of those up for selling in the future.

The mintage limit sucks though, I'd say they're both pretty equal as an investment now based on that.
 
I love Pandas and have a couple of most years as a personal collection. But the rampant counterfeiting chased me out of the Panda market for investing.
