Today I Received.....

[KevinG]

I've received a 1820 French 20 Franc. And a 1909 Sovereign.  My computer died. So pics have to wait.

[Orchestral]

What a run of bad luck I'm having! My first proof (2017 Sovereign) had a nasty dink in it, the replacement for which I'm still waiting for, now my first http://chinesemedals.com order has not one but two! Take a look at this Shenyang Lunar Monkey with a little chip on the panda's crotch and on the right side of the rim. Do you guys think I should ask for a replacement?

[Roy]

You mean the slight edge knock? 

[Orchestral]

Correction, make that three! just found another on the edge above panda's right ear.

Look like poor quality plating marks to me. Well they would do if these were standard pandas from random chinese ebay sellers!

How dare you, these are from the hong quai national mint of the republic of China and made with the newest innovations in technology, only 10 available in silver, 15 brass and 9 with a copper/brass alloy mix and antique finish 

Forgot to mention they're part of the exclusive pandas on the wall series

Shenyang Mint Lunar Panda 62g Proof Silver (formerly 2 oz).  Also inc pics of the 3 medals to date.

 

[TheGoldSovereign]

few 1/4 Griffins, have the 1oz on order from elsewhere.

Think this series is great, lovely coin and to the eye looks flawless, i think condition is going to overall be better than the lion 1/4s, though there is a strange amount of "pimples" ? around the edge that i can only see with these macro shots

[Bullionbilly]

Really glad i bought this. The pictures dont do it justice !

 

2oz destiny BU.

You always seem to get your coins first even though we both live in Manchester and despatched the same time lol.still no 4th expo panda roosters arrived yet ?

[Oldun]

Is it me or do pandas look odd when standing on all fours, or is it the head seems odd ? Nice coin though

I don't normally go in for colored coins but couldn't resist this one.

[Cornishfarmer]

Had 1/4 griffin arrive, first Royal mint billion purchase, in good condition, packaged in 2 padded envelopes and the DHL envelope  and the nice twist cap.    Good experience

Yea same for me, it was my first purchase from them direct and why not at the price the 1/4 was there. Got the 2017 sovs and 1oz coming from elsewhere though, the sovs were particularly cheaper

O, and tubes of the silvers!

What is the 'tooled' reference Numi?

There are a couple of scratches so probably refers to those. One on reverse Rim and other on obverse. But it's a rare coin with only 55,000 minted. If it was perfect it goes from $1200 to $60000

I do like the early US coinage. I have a few later pieces but I'd like to get more.

Thanks.

Some slightly better pics. This is a type 2 $1. It didn't really work well and most pieces badly minted. In 1856 they replaced the small head of the type 2 with a larger head that lasted till 1889.

It's lovely.

Forgive me, too busy to research, is it .900 and what weight? Like a 1/20th?
