Difficult to get now so possibly sold out everywhere but the 8th release has only just been announced so keep your eye out.

I've seen another site selling the 7th issue with over 51 in stock but postage is a killer but don't want to miss out on a complete collection so might have to bite the bullet.

Cheers

I’ve just received the 8th coin from LPM and happy to announce I now have the complete 8 coin silver sets in original Sealed. sheets of 30 from LPM. Now if I could only get the gold.

Hi fellow collectors I just got my complete set of eight coins as well as the auto and winged dragon coins in the new series.  Love the excellent finish on the coins!  My favourite is the second coin, Reverse Dragon.  For the guys who bought single coins do you remove the coin from the plastic sheet? Was thinking of getting a display box for the set of eight.

Yes, speaking for myself, i removed the plastic wrap. It isn't a collectible significance in my opinion to leave this intact unlike some other series.

When i was buying them i wanted to see the wrap intact but this was to assure myself the coins had not been picked over for grading purposes first. Having got them in the wraps i am now happy to remove them and enjoy them in a display as they should be.

Thanks for sharing! Do you put the coins in a display box? I'm trying to find a box with 45mm capsule slots that fit 8 coins.

That is my plan. It's on my to-do list for a while now. Like you, when i can get around to it i will do some searching for a possible 8 piece box. I have a feeling it might take some hunting. They are simply too nice not to have them in a good display box, even if i end up having to get a bespoke one made.
