I don't know that they look so much better - a bit different, yes, but better - I don't know........... What I DO know is that the Perth Mint screwed around and screwed over so many with the first series - that the will proably sell alot less of the second series.......... For myself - I'll probably pick up one of the silver of each and one of the golden Dragon coins - my own sign.........but not the multiple sets I picked up series 1.

Re: Australian Gold Lunar Series II They look nice, but I like the rat/mouse from the first series better. Still, it looks like the quality will be high. I'll buy the pieces I like, but I haven't decided if I'll put together any gold sets this time. I'll probably put together one 1-oz. silver set. I'm not planning to put together multiple sets, like I did with series one. It sounds like they've planned too many releases in a year, which takes the fun out of collecting, and there's no assurance that the mint won't do something weird again. I did think it was funny that Apmex's intro says "secure for the next 12 years."

Re: Australian Gold Lunar Series II The new series will be "larger than usual" but I can't find anywhere what size. Anyone know? Maybe like Philharmonic size?

I read somewhere [still trying to find it again] that they would be roughly the same size as the Philharmonikers, which would put them around 36.5mm.

Re: Australian Gold Lunar Series II The APMEX site claims 38.8mm diameter and 3mm thickness. Thats bigger than the Philharmonic and the 50 Peso. I like the look but not how it says Year of the Mouse on it. I'll be getting at least one. The question is do I buy now or hope for a nice pullback?

Thanks! When I originally posted they weren't showing the sizes yet guess I should have waited.:banghead: TAB

That probably won't be a problem, every member of GIM will offer assistance. Now, in the spirit of the US Treasury, I can keep them safe for, say a couple of hundred years, and give you some paper in return. If you can't look to your government as an example, just what is it possible to have faith in?

Re: Australian Gold Lunar Series II Does anyone know when we'll get to see the first series II silver design?

The year of the rat ends in February, I would assume before them.

Re: Australian Gold Lunar Series II Series II in Silver: http://www.apmex.com/Category/213/20..._Series_2.aspx The Series I Mouse was nicer, IMO. They now offer a TEN KILO Ag coin. Must be huge! :applause_
