$1025.00 for 1/20th of an ounce. Isn't that like $20,500.00 an ounce? Am I missing something? Is there some numismatic or historic value to this coin? Is it a rare coin? Or is gold just selling for over $20,000.00 an ounce?

Holy s--t Seller laughing all the way to the bank!

They just realized that that is the price gold is going to get to as fiat money dies and we get a new gold backed world financial system.

Well, apparently these two idiots think so. Look at the bid history That's the problem with the rationale "well, I can't watch the auction, so I'll just place a huge bid that no one else will match."

Yeah, you're probably right, at some point in time. Maybe they're both New World Order tycoons who had too many dry martinis at one of their Bilderburg enclave gatherings? Most likely, with hyperinflation coming... the winner will be able to look back a few years from now (2150) and think ..."hey, I did alright with that, after all!" The noobie I could see getting carried away... but the other guy has 501 feedback!? Maybe the noobie was the seller bidding himself to run the price up?

no. its probably a pair of foul chinamen doing laundry. one of them has a "dirty" roll of dollars, buys a prepaid debit card with cash, phony id...notice how that one "bidder with the one star keeps goosing the bid, he's probably the seller as well, a day before the auction, the one star guy blows away the two for real bidders, the fellers with 60 and 270 stars, those guys are for real.....but the one star shill has blown them away with his $1,000 bid....they dont know he's sitting up at a grand, and then two seconds before auctions end, the guy with the dirty money debit card snipes it at 1025.00, and the two whack up the dough and the ching gong yin , or whatever you call that fonky china coin goes back in the drawer...track the seller's move and i'll bet you he sells a LOT of 20,000 an ounce gold, he's either dodging taxes, or doing laundry...y'know laundering illicit profits from whatever God knows what illicit Chinamen schemes.

frigging sewer that place, God bless America.

I guess anything is possible. Your supposition is as valid as the others. The seller looks legit, tho. I looked at completed listings... the guy is a stamp dealer. That's the only gold he has sold. Maybe that's a rare numie or something. Could be only those two knew it's value, the others were just bidding bullion on it.

God, the stupidity on these boards sometimes just astounds me.

Be one of the lucky and fortunate few to own a scarce 2003 Guanyin Gold Proof!

Guanyin is one of the most venerated, revered and important figures in Chinese culture. She's best known as a symbol of mercy and compassion. And in the world of business, it's said that she represents luck and fortune.

And that's exactly what it takes to own Guanyin's gold namesake: the hard-to-find 2003 China Tenth-Ounce Gold Guanyin 50 Yuan PR69 Ultra Cameo. This is a coin that almost never sees the light of day on the international coin market.

Just 33,000 coins total were produced in 2003! By comparison, the mintage limit on the 2010 Tenth-Ounce Gold Panda is almost four times as many! So we were extremely fortunate to acquire even a tiny number of these scarce 99.9% Fine Gold coins in certified PR69 condition from Numismatic Guarantee Corp. (NGC). That's one scant grading point below absolute perfect PR70, the highest grade available!

First issued in 1993, the Guanyin series ceased being minted in 2004 after a mere 12-year run. The unique, one-year-only design for 2003 features a seated Guanyin on a stunning holographic enhanced background on the reverse, and the sacred Buddhist Putuo Mountain Pilgrimage Gate on the obverse.

Between the 2003 Guanyin's limited mintage and today's hot Chinese market, this may well be your one and only opportunity to acquire this coin! Don't leave it to luck - order yours today!
