Nice collection.

Your missing the 10kg Lunar Snake.

Yes indeed, nice collection fltacoma; thanks for sharing some fantastic images. You take very good photos.

Don't forget the coloured snakes as well, they have a low mintage; some people love them, others don't collect them but the mintage is quite low for the coloured bullion coins.

Bullion Bourse is a site sposor of Silver Stackers and sells the coloured snakes, but even if you aren't interested in the coloured coins, there's some good viewing on BB's site.

Thank you for the kind words! I cant wait till the horse comes out lol. If I had $10k laying around I would pick up a 10 kilo for sure! I was just only going to collect the bullion coins, but the colored and guilded coins look better and better by the day! What have I gotten myself into

On a side note, those prices for the 1 oz roll of colored snakes would make a good investment........

Holdfast, is there a website that lists the end of year mintages for the colored, and guilded lunar coins and koalas?

 

[Jislizard]

Nice, I have the same thing with the Dragons from last year. Though I also put together a set of the coloured coins and proofs as well (as many as I could get hold of anyway).

I was looking at getting a display box made up so that I could keep them all together, now I have the Kilo dragon I will revisit the idea.

Have you got anything planned for the set?

Nice collection! It's a good year for many stackers / collectors to buy bullion and coins.

Sure!

Here's a link to Perth's collector coins.
http://www.perthmint.com.au/numismatic-mintages.aspx

Lets take an example...say the 2011 coloured rabbit.

Here's a link to the Bunny page.

Scroll down to page 4 of 7, you'll see the title "The Australian Lunar Coloured Coins - Series Two*"

You'll also see the gilded koala's on the same page.

Cheers

Not to mention the premium is crazy on those things. You would think otherwise because of its size but nooooo..........

WHat do you guys think about the colored versions? good looking coin you think? and do you think it will go up in value?

 

[Jislizard]

I hope so, I ordered a three coin proof set from my local post office and they got me a type set with four coins in it. Close enough.

I am not a fan of coloured coins but quite a few people appear to like them so they might catch on.
