Bought a China Lunar 2015 proof goat.

These are (for China) low mintage and 98% stay in China. A few escape to the west.

where from, US?

It was from the US. Only seller of these coins I've come across. Not cheap for an ounce but I want to carry on the run of these.

Put in an offer for a fiver less than advertised and was accepted.

with a bit of luck it'll be marked as less than the commercial cutoff for not paying tax, but if not; it's tax plus the dreaded post office charge, ouch!:(

After a bit of a lull I am adding a bit to my stack.

10 Perth Mint lunar monkeys and 10 kooks.

Can't go wrong with that selection. Was it aSTG order or did you go elsewhere? I am contemplating putting an order in with goldsilver but can't be bothered with added hassle of the currency conversion malarkey. Is currency fare etc quite straightforward?

Goldsilver in America!

I ordered the coins from Aurinum in Germany. I've bought from them quite a few times. They're a bit slower than STG but

comparable pricewise and so far 100% reliable.

Like some others here on this forum I use Transferwise. I think they're great.

If you have any questions about them just ask.

Nah, GoldSilver Belgium, looks like a few folks from here have ordered from them. Don't like the potential vat and customs charges that could be attached from the states. May decide to pull the trigger in the next week or so also.
