You're very welcome!

Popped into Sharps Pixley today for a 1/4 oz gold 2015 Britannia & one of their 1oz silver bars.

Quite a friendly place to visit. Just as I was about to leave, the doorman gave my wife a free hardback book called; 'The Ages of Gold'.

Now that's enough to make me visit again

During the forum downtime Atkinsons had a Turkish 100 Kurush in stock.  It took me several recalculations and a google search to double check the weight and purity and sure enough, they had it listed at spot.  Someone must have forgot to in put the pricing parameter during listing.  Since there was no one to alter of this I decided to pick it up myself.

What makes it look like a fake. The packaging looks genuine?

It shows 500Y on a 30g coin, it should be 10Y

Also none 1oz/30g coins since 2006 have had double packing

Sorry for my bad spelling

You can look at my homepage for more pics

I'm new to all this but as far as I can find out there is 500Y on a 30g panda.

I don't get the double packing bit.

[mondy41]

It looks good - A misunderstanding me thinks

Its 500 Yuan on the Gold version and 10 Yuan on the Silver version.

This coin is the Gold version so it is correct.

[Agpanda]

500Y is a 1kg coin, 30gr/1oz is always 10Y

Double packing is capsule + plastic around

China mint haven´t done that on single coins since 2006

[Oldun]

Bosse has mistaken the silvery colour of the photo for a silver 1oz (which is denoted 10) Yours is an au. No drama.

 

That's all

shield side looks a bit like an ancient coin from boetia.

maybe a modern token or tourist item?

The second looks like a (replica of?) a 4th century Boeotian coin depicting the labours of Hercules
