Seen Any 2016 Designs?

[HelpingHands]

Is anybody else saving up for release of Perth's 2016 coins and hoping the spot price stays where it is (or lower)?

 

It's hard not to buy now.  I don't think I can hold out.

Na, wouldn't dream of buying Lunars at this low a price, makes them seem so cheap and nasty.

That is not a coin alright HH, neither is it cheap, and surely that's 1888 lucky owners as the mind boggles at the 1.888 mintage figure given. I suppose if a wedge is no problem you could buy it

and forget about it, hoping that one day there's a massive rush on monkey coins, other than that it's a bit of a beauty is in the eye of the beholder product.

Each "coin" has a face value equivalent to 44p. Try spending that in any Rwandan shop

I'd like to see someone try to put it in a parking meter.

8 is the lucky number for Chinese people, as it's supposedly lunar series may have something to do with this. I think the royal mint 1oz gold sheep has a mintage of 8888

I am planning to buy as many 1oz Lunar Monkeys i can rustle up enough money for from silver re-shuffle sales,in a one order from STG later in the year.

Sounds like a plan.Have to sit on my hands and stay away from the click and buy icon.

The second design of the privateer round.

 

[watchesandwhisky]

Nowhere near as nice as the first in the series, the art just doesn't look right, I get that its still a high relief round at a good price - but the bar was set high after the first one and they have not come close with this one IMO ^^^

[StackemHigh]

I like this one. Not as much as the first one but I do like it!

I'll be getting a couple of them anyway.

[DRooster]

Since I absolutely hate monkeys there'll be a load of new coins I don't need to buy. Great!

The new Perth Mint Silver 1oz Kangaroo Bullion Coins, joining the Kookaburra and Koala. STG make sure to get those for us 2016 onwards

[MikeOxlong]

Perth mint have just unveiled the 2016 designs! (Not sure how to post a pic on phone)

the monkey looks ok, should be popular

[woody65]

Prefer this one to the 2015

[HelpingHands]

Yes. The barbed wire fence is a good feature in a similar way to the 2008 cobweb.

[garthy]

Liking the kookaburra more than the monkey, still I'll have to get a roll of each.

[Cornishfarmer]

I like the look of all of them except the koala, monkey better than the goat in my opinion

[SilverPirate]

I like them all the monkey, roo, koala but i really like that Kook.

[shemyaza]

Most pleased Perth Mint have applied the Gold Kangaroo design to the Silver Bullion range with the Silver 1 ounce .9999 version. You'll see the design on youtube from Perth Mint.

I'll be buying a tube of 20 a month as soon as Silver-to-Go can get them.

Agree, this kook is a real winner. The monkey leaves a lot to be desired.
