The milking of the dragon continues... in Hong Kong

Pass on the coins but those funny dragon statutes are rad. How do I get one of those? Do they have any PM content? If so I want one!

Yeah I wanted that too LOL but can't get them unless you order some sets.

Unfortunately the sets are even more pricey than Perth Mint's :|
 
And while the milking may continue, there is really only 1 release from that group listed in the original post that commands huge international recognition and investment potential, with the PM coins a distant 2nd place.

I'd only buy from mints that have a history of Lunar releases thereby avoiding the milkers.
 
I can't believe that the Chinese are ripping off the Perth Mint lunar Calendar, when are they going to come up with something original instead of ransacking our heritage for a few dollars?!

Which ones are you refering to? Singapore?? I would hardly say they command huge international recognition compared to China and PM?? Please let us know...

It's going to be even worse in 2013 I suspect for Year of the Snake.

Isn't the Dragon usually the most popular, followed by the Snake?

Or do you think it will be a case of people seeing this years popularity and trying to cash in on it next year?

haha singapore... there's a PF70 1988 SG 1/4oz Gold Dragon on eBay for $650 and nobody wants it...

So yeah, almost nil international recognition

The order goes from China first followed by Perth Mint for sure.

Yeah I misunderstood, I thought mshiney was saying the high recognition coin was not in the list sorry.. I would have to go with China as well it is my favorite dragon coin and I like both sides which I cant say for any others so far. Too bad they are so expensive , i wish we could buy them in rolls for maybe spot + 100% . I think it is alittle ironic that all i see from China is cheap underpriced garbage but when it comes to actual precious metal from china like these dragons they are wayy expensive and nice quality....

Hello fellow Lunarians,
I must say the Jade Laos coin is just super stunning, but alas, out of my price range.
And I quite like the Dragon coin from Canada.
