Here are the last 30mm 1 YUAN coins. 2 coin set for the 11th Asian Games. Both panda lovers and sport theme collectors should pay attention to it. This is the first time for China to hold big sport games. The auspicious symbol is a carton panda whose name is "PanPan". On these 2 coins you can see "PanPan" in games.

Very cute mascott:) Is this set only two coins? Javelin and archery only?
(by the way I e-mailed the file.)

Bob, I have gotta learn to stop "drooling" whenever you post pictures of your coins.
What great coins you have in China.

Yes, Renal. The set is of only 2 coins. However, the first one is not Javelin, but Chinese sword of martial art.
Received your email. That is really of our national anthem.
Barry, I am also drooling all the time at seeing Aussie coins. To be frank, there are really some very very nice Chinese commemorative coins. Especially these early 1 yuan coins and those new 5 yuan coins. I love them more whenever I enjoy looking them.

I always say "The grass may be greener on the other side but it is just as hard to mow!"

I thought of a sword, but it didn't fit in my "sport" concept  I'm glad we finally figured out the melody:) I must have checked a wrong piece as the PRC anthem. Thanks for the info

Yes, lim. That is "wushu". We also call it "Gongfu" :-)
Terry, glad that you have received the coins. Really good news ! The delivery is faster than I have expected. Also glad that you love the coins. I also feel the wildlife series is very very beautiful and attractive, especially the panda coin. It can be a good additional coin for panda silver lovers.

Really good news !
This is my great pleasure to help all of you collect Chinese coins. This should be one of the most advantages of our forum. Collectors from all over the world help each other and exchange with each other.
As you all have received the coins safely and in time. I'd like to say thank you, China Post. :-)

Received my coins from Bob over a week ago and have only just had time to have a good look at them.
I am very pleased that I have them, they are great looking coins.
Also took them to my coin club and had many offers for them. (All rejected...no way is anyone getting them.)
Thanks again Bob, a please swapping with you.
