The whole Mongolian series have been taking off. I'm guessing due to it's low mintage, as well as the uniqueness of the design. that and I think the first one in the series one coin of the year. Starting to cool down a bit, but those are some expensive bullion! Someone on another forum actually bought 3 of the wolverines.... at 129 each! Even posted the receipt. It was right around the time they were starting to take off, where you could get them for about 400 each. Anyways, back on topic, the Rhino coin is actually quite nice. But I think the 5000 mintage you are talking about is for this coin: http://www.apmex.com/Product/70604/..._Series.aspx |

Yeah, I've never seen the first coin you were referring too. The series looks pretty neat:
2008 - Gorilla
2009 - Elephant
2010 - Lion
2011 - Zebra
2012 - Rhino
I actually had a deal to pick up each of these, but the person I was dealing with backed out at the last second. Too bad, I really like the one I have, and was looking forward to having them all.

It is a 1 oz bullion coin for the Rwanda African Wildlife series that started in 2008. Different animal for each year.

I once read a newspaper story about a guy who broke into what he thought was an unoccupied house to steal whatever he could. He got into a room with the home owner's pet Rotty. The cops said that he left bloody fingerprints in the area where his fingernails ripped away the edges of a door as he made his escape. He was found later at the local hospital, suffering from multiple animal bite injuries and weak from the loss of blood. Seems to me that he got punished pretty badly. No need for a judge to add anything to that! |
