Gold gilded 2000 china 1 oz silver coin

[Atuwaya]

Hi all,

i have come across a 2000 China 1 oz silver gold gilded panda coin. When I inquired from the seller that I can't find any record on this coin he indicated that a German firm gilded 1000 coins of this year. Is this bs? Does anyone have any knowledge about this? Thanks

This does happen so i wouldn't be at all surprised if it is true. See some of the coins on EMK for example.

Sorry but nothing comes up in my search for EMK. I'm new to numismatics. Maybe you can be more specific? Much appreciated.

Point your browser to emk.com.  Another site with large range is aurinum.de, think there are others but I haven't bookmarked. 

In my internet travels seems the Germans are nuts about collectable coins, they must produce thousands of designs for that market.  Some gaudy, some are very nice but with pricing to match.

Thank you very much! I will check that out. Much appreciated.
