2x Griffin's. Not sure which I like the most, the lion or the Griffin are both stunning.

The remaining two Zambia elephant's to complete my mini set.

GREAT coins, thank you for sharing.?

I agree @gazer! Pretty chunky too - as its actually about the same diameter as a 1 oz silver Britannia - just thicker.   

While I am at it - there is another quirky thing about this coin. The issuing country is Chad - which last time I looked does not even share any border with Egypt - so quite why they have started a series called Egyptian Relic Series is a mystery all of its own. Gotta love coin collecting ! 

Great when I have coins made for a different country, people new to collecting think that is weird, example Elephants from Africa minted in Germany. yes funny old game. They would probably think I'm not buying from that plonker. ?

I will buy them please. 

What will you take for them if good I can pay f/f PayPal.

They look in vf condition the 1891and 2012. nice.

JUST took a look at the download for clip-on you was kind enough to show me. regards from gazer.

THANK you I will definitely try that iv got a loupe, ext good advice. ?

Try and upload more better photos. I took you excellent advice. Took a very long examination and found the coin is without any issues, my photos make the coin look awful. Many  thanks for your help, very much appreciated. ? PS please inform me if you still see problems with the coin. my thanks.

Thanks for the message, I just checked and I found that in the presentation box there is a layer of black velvet which  particles gets onto the capsule drives you nuts as clean bits away, then some more bits gets on the capsule. But must admit that the box and packing is excellent. PS my pictures don't do the coin justice. ? I will double check thank you.

For 430 quid and while they still have stock, I'd back it. I would call first to make sure you will definitely be getting a replacement and have them put it in an email to you. It is a proof afterall and as long as you are sure the black marks are on the coin and not on the plastic cover. I would very carefully unscrew the cap and see if it isn't some fibre from a glove or something first.

2015 China 1 oz. Reverse Proof 60th Anniversary FUN Show - Silver Panda Medal NGC PF69

Got a few of these spare.  It was more economical to buy a few to split the shipping/customs than just buying a single one for myself.  I was expecting to pay full taxes but the declaration was for slightly less so they have come in cheaper than expected.

MCM want US$200 for these which is over priced.  

https://www.moderncoinmart.com/2015-china-10-yuan-1-oz.-reverse-proof-60th-anniversary-fun-show-silver-panda-medal-ngc-pf69-exclusive-label.html

£102.50 + delivery of your choice.

Due to the size, if going by 1st Class signed-for (at your own risk) it will be a small parcel rate at £5 with packaging materials.

Special Delivery (insured) is £9 but can be also be done for £7.75 if some packaging material is sacrificed to keep the weight under 500g.

I bet they are great to look at close up.?
