![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FCyEERXn.png&t=665&c=RTcwGorDj2s0xA) The 2 Oz Silver Kraken is there for size comparison. These are BIG coins. As shown, they come in giant acrylic airtite cases direct from the mint. These are about $5/oz over spot value, shipping is free. These are definitely not just Silver Bullion. As I mentioned before, these are part of the Perth Lunar Series. Each year, the Perth mint in Australia produces bullion related to that year's zodiac symbol. 2017 is the Year of the Rooster, 2011 was the Year of the Rabbit, etc. The mintage figures aren't as low as some other collectible coins that are produced in extreme low batches, but its safe to say that the lunar series is the most collected series of any, so the premium is higher than others. I also have the 1 oz and 2 oz versions of this coin in my personal collection. The premium on both of those coins is about $20+/spot per ounce or >100% premium. Larger bullion has a lower premium per ounce of course, as it takes less effort, electricity, and machine wear to make 1 32.15Oz coin versus 32 1 Oz coins, but as I stated, this is not something that will ever approach spot value. I'm personally a rabbit fan, so the 2011 Perth Year of the Rabbit coins are on my top 5 favorite list.

Fresh in today (2) MS70 1/10th Oz 2011 Year of the Rabbit Gold coins and (3) MS69 2004 Silver Eagles
Actual photos of the Rabbits and Eagles uploaded. The photos are not stock.
As a side note, the MS70 1/10 oz gold rabbits are OBSCENELY difficult to find. There is not a single online bullion dealer, reputable or not selling them. If anyone happens to find someone else selling them, I'd greatly appreciate a link. Trying to compare prices is tough when no one else is selling them.

Yep, thats where I got them ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I was actually looking for an ungraded 1/10 oz rabbit to make a necklace out of, when I saw the MS70 ones listed for the same prices as the going rate for the non graded ones. Now I can't find any comparables at any other shops.

I've got a handful of the year of the dragon 1 oz rounds, but those are in my personal collection at the moment and not for sale. I believe the Perth Lunar series may have been my introduction to numismatic coins. I've got all of them produced so far. At least in silver.

Are you looking for the 2/5/10 oz or kilogram 2012 lunar dragon? I'd be happy to keep an eye out for whatever you'd like. If I find one at a good price before I order again, I'd just link you to the source.

The 2000 Lunar Dragons come in 1/2 oz, 1 oz, 2 oz, 10 oz, and 1 Kg. The 10 oz and 1 Kg are exceedingly hard to find, at least at a decent price, as under 10,000 were minted. If I recall something like 7500 of each were minted. The 1/2 and 2 oz were something like 50,000 made, and the 1 oz around 100,000 made (again if Im not mistaken) APMEX is definitely not known for having the lowest prices, but just to give you an idea, they are selling the 1Kg dragon at $1300 cash price, and $700 cash price for the 10 oz. I can certainly find better, but what I mean is don't expect to find a $1300 piece for spot value or anything near that. I'll keep a lookout for the 10 oz and kilogram 2012 dragons. Are you interested in any of the 2000 dragons or anything else?

The 1st Lunar Series in particular can get crazy expensive. It wasn't until late into the series or the beginning of the 2nd series that they really became popular. By the time there were 50,000 buyers lined up for each piece, they were all left fighting over the limited number produced. I looked up the mintage of all of the pieces of the series by metal and size, funny enough, they have 1KG pieces that they minted about 1,000 of. Some of the gold coins only have 2 minted per year. Now Perth produces a pretty large amount of coins to keep up with demand, but going back and finding the older coins at a decent price is tough.
