Garden Panda Medal

[Guest]

The first real pics of the new garden panda medal have appeared and it looks promising. There are 6 varieties and all but the antique silver one have 99 mintage and the antique silver has 59 minted.

 

The silver medals are 2oz of fine silver and all medals are in a scolloped pattern. The second of the garden panda designs is in the planning stage now.

 

 

I have ordered 2 sets of 6 from Lucky and I will have these graded.

 

The medal is made by XSJ who are connected to Shanghai Mint and I believe there is some crossover in ownership.

 

The XSJ team did the lovely Trigos medal

 

 

This graded well and was well received.

 

I have confirmed that a large USA dealer based near NGC has bought 10 sets of 6 and will be marketing these. A first for an independent medal.

Now this is a really nice Chinese medal.  The antiqued Silver is beautiful.  To the best of your knowledge, are these all already spoken for given the U.S. dealer "who shall not be named" snatching a good number of them?  Man, you know they're going to jack the price through the roof especially in high grade from NGC with what's sure to be a new bulk submitter only label.

You were ahead of your time Numi (dare I say avant-garde)!

The dealer in Sarasota! will have 10 sets of 6. Some sets of 5 are still available from Lucky but I don't think he has many left.






Here is the brass and antique copper.

That should be a good buy. Are you grading them?
