    Could be that you are looking to buy the wrong Chinese Coins. LOL The 1st Chinese Lunar collection ( 1981- 1982 ) has been very good for me. 8gm Gold and 15gm silver. Sorry to interrupt your good thread.

    most brand name or government official issue bullion silver coins were becoming collector's items. i would said 95%. chinese panda, british britannia, australian lunar series I and australian kookaburra. rarely see prices traded near bullion price.

    Effective metals panic marketing during high demand, watch the world economies balance out and so will the collectors.

    Elaine: Is not this thread about 'chinese gold and silver pandas'? What need have we for the other countries bullion mintage figures?

    Please explain why you post something, don't just post information that is readily available elsewhere. And do post your source for the data, otherwise we have no way of verifying the accuracy of your figures. You are known to make transcription mistakes in data from past experience.

    should i cut the sheet and keep the 30 chinese silver panda individually inside a whitman blue plastic box?. will it affect the price in the future?.
     
  13. "Back in central Beijing, we visited a Bank of China branch. There were 77 teller windows. In the central foyer was a display case with gold and silver coins for sale, as if they were pens or tote bags. The Chinese buy more gold than anybody else, recently surpassing India."

    someone just bought 600 pc of 2010 chinese panda from apmex. wow. specially at high price.

    Indeed. Chinese coins are getting hard to find and when you do find them, they come with a pretty hefty premium. I regret not buying a couple of gold fan coins earlier in the year for close to spot. They can't be found now at any price. I did score a couple of gold 2010 Pandas and those also have since become tough to get at a reasonable price.

    I attribute this to the fact the Chinese consumers are buying up all the gold they can find and there is a pretty good market for Chinese coins in the USA that are being bought by the Chinese which are then shipped back to China. Good news if you have been a long term collector of these coins as you can get top dollar for them now. Pre-2000 coins are in very high demand.

    Hi fatima,
    When you say you could buy gold fan coin close to spot, I guess you meant the 1/2oz of gold close to spot price of 1oz? I never seen the fan gold coin selling even near 50% premium ...

    I still only pay melt for them and melt them.
    They're ugly lil coins, made by the sleaziest. Don't pay premiums for them, refuse to do so and drop down the price steadily.
     
  18. If you don't like Chinese coins almost anyone in these photos (taken at the Hong Kong Coin Expo this August) would happily take them off your hands.

    Melt them? Sure, lots have been melted already which is partly why the supply of many dates is so thin. There are quite a few dates and denominations that only have 2-3,000 BU coins left. I know one dealer who personally had 10% of a coin's mintage melted a dozen years ago. He isn't very happy about that decision now as the remaining coins have sextupled in price.

    Every one that is lost makes the remaining coins more valuable. I have to admit, though, that it's a fascinating strategy to pass up the chance to potentially make hundreds, or even thousands, of bucks on a coin and melt it instead.

    you are right. pandacollector. since chinese like gold very much. and they bought a lot of chinese gold panda. and hardly know how to preserve them in bu condition. that is why so many bullion chinese gold panda were melted down or sell as bullion gold. the remaining gold panda is quite few for each year. so the price will certainly go up and up. not same with silver panda. most silver panda were bought by collectors from america. and most were being taken care of. gem b.u.
     
  20. Yes, most of the very scarce dates are in gold but there are some 1 oz. silver Pandas that bring anywhere from $250-$750 each. Many of these are not widely known.
