Very cool Videos and Photos of modern Chinese medals

[mmissinglink]

I wanted to start a thread for all SilverStacker forum members to be able to share some pictures and videos of modern Chinese medals that you have either found searching the WWW or also some pics and video of my / your own modern Chinese medals whether the medals are from one of the 3 official mints in China or one of the private mints.

I'll begin with a video I found today of a stunning 2012 brass medal...just feast your eyes on this affordable beauty....

I could easily go broke if I purchased a portion of the Chinese medals I really like....every new medal I see I become more a fan of medals.

Let me post the photo of the 1st one and second one after getting it from Singapore coin show. I lazy to take video like my friend barsenualt.

The first one cost you around USD480 - 550 in ebay.

Second one N third one are still affordable.

Too pricey for me, anyway..

I've passed on this one. Not going to chase. If I had caught it early on when it was much cheaper, I certainly would have purchased.


Not my favorite of the series, anyway. But still a very nice one.
