bigsky said:The only difference between original minted kooks and restrikes is the
square holder vs round cap, which are interchangable anyway so you
cant be 100% sure its original coin anyway.
The square holder isnt as airtight as the round cap so these tend to tarnish sooner.
This is both good and bad depending whether they tarnish well or not
1990 kook has to be original, as it was sold out.
Price wise 1270 USD is over 1800 AUD, a set was recently listed here for sale
at 1100AUD and did not sell, think it was discounted another 50 or so to move
i offered a full set (26 coins)to someone here for 1200aud and I beleive they found better
price, so still have that set.
so IMO $1270 US is around 25% or so over what you could easily do here
cheers grant
Thank you for a good point, i will analyze including the shipping cost, i feel likely to have them all, you're really right.
