[QUOTE="mmissinglink, post: 2019851, member: 47293"]The first coin I ever purchased was not a coin at all, but actually a Chinese silver medal back in the 1980's. I didn't buy it because it was silver (I was a teen and had no interest in or knowledge of the value of precious metals), nor because I liked or collected coins, I bought it because it was beautiful and depicted the Great Wall of China...an historical structure that I had just learned about and intrigued me. But it was because of this Chinese Great Wall silver medal that, nearly 30 years later, drew me into an appreciation of coins in general and precious metals coins and medals specifically. Since my true interest in coin collecting began in late 2012, I have added some inexpensive but beautiful Chinese medals to my small collection...I love ultra high relief and well executed designs....which the Chinese have perfected with their medals. So, are there any other Chinese medal fans here?[/QUOTE]
