You can’t blame the US companies. If they are being told that the coins are 1 troy ounce by the Chinese Government it’s only logical that they’re...
I wouldn’t be surprised if the Sigma turned up results showing like .985 fine rather than the .999 being advertised. China is one of those...
Update: I was looking on Wikipedia for the specifications of the Silver Panda and look what I stumbled upon! Apparently the 1 troy ounce and 30g...
I noticed you seem to have a large collection of pandas. Do you happen to have any of the gold pandas? Like this one straight up says “1 oz AU...
Yeah it’s an acid so it actually eats into the coin itself. You can clean up the liquid acid but the damage is already done. With silver the...
Yeah it was my first time and the dropper kind of dripped the acid faster than I expected. But I also wanted a very large and clear example and...
Do you think it might be possible that it got misplaced/lost but that eventually it will be found and sent on? Ive heard crazy stories about...
Wow! Seriously?! Do you have some sort of label or receipt that shows you paid for £250 insurance? When it comes to the law usually a receipt is...
Ok so this may sound really stupid.. But I got my first ever acid-testing kit and I’ve never done acid-testing so I decided to get a silver...
Omg dude (or ma’am) I am so sorry! :( That is such an amazingly beautiful note! I will definitely keep my eye out and report it immediately if I...
Very nice!! I find better luck with bank rolls than pocket change. I’d love to score a really nice coin or note but I don’t want to get too...
Thanks! :D Keep in mind it took many failed attempts to get anything. Lol! However one thing I love about coin roll hunting is that it never...
Thanks for providing follow up data! I think based on what I’ve seen we can conclude that China has a regular tendency of producing underweight...
Oh I just noticed the 2007 & 2008 are underweight too!
That’s true but it also means that prior to announcing the switch to 30g they were straight up lying about pre-2016 pandas having 1ozt of silver....
Thanks for the further data! I’m wondering if China switched from 1ozt to 30g pandas because they were having difficulty meeting the 1ozt standards.
I think we would need more samples for testing, as well as different years. But it should be noted I’ve never ever found a national bullion coin...
Yup! I bought 40 of them and they were all 2015 and in new condition.
Yup! It’s the Bavarian Mint. I have full trust in the Bavarian Mint because it’s a Mint run by a stable, democratic, transparent, first world...
I’m very interested in this too! If anyone has gold Chinese bullion I would be thrilled to see what the weights come out as. Especially...
