Chinese currency tael Videos

@MrMilanoLau Thanks Milano...and at Lee Cheong Gold and Silver Dealers...each tael is hand poured so each one is slightly different. They have 'given' me a little bit extra with no charge when it is a tad over the mark. That is very cool!

how much did that cost?? And ugh lol, not sure if its a good idea to wave that gold nugget around like that in public

I know Lee Cheong too. Friendly people. 1 Teal (Chinese) is 1.208 of an ounce

PS...I see you like numbers!

1 tael ~ 1.2 ounce

I know they are expensive now. Just hope I bought more. It is hard for me to offer a price for sycee. Actually I have no idea about the price. I think it should be around 3 time of silver bullion. It is nice to watch your collection.

3 x spot traditionally yes but with the Chinese buyers involvement in the market, it's close to 4 x to 10 x spot. Funny thing is that the smaller and more elaborate ones are more expensive than the larger, simpler ones.

My sycee and Chinese coins have high Chinese auction value so waiting for the day they open up and I sell to the Chinese wealthy collectors on some pieces.

Hi Tom, I did. I recall buying most of these ingots for around spot when spot was less than $10/oz . Well, you keep things long enough, it pays off.

Put it this way, I would accept a fair price for things I don't want to keeps, but the price has to wow me for things I treasure and hold dear.

I'm open to offers but not actively selling my collection. The recent coin hauls, I have no attachment and plan to sell anyways.

Wow !!! That Is a lot of silver !!! I hope you got them back in the days of cheap silver?

But for me to let even one piece go, I don't want a fair price, I want a great price :)

You collection is great. Sycee is my favorite. So bad, it is hard to find them now.

PM your offer and I'll humor you. The sycee is vastly over spot value it's scary.

Just want to know any thing for sale?

"Keep" I meant to type.

Those are cool!

I found one very similar it's called Fyodor And Annabel by John Zorn (:

This sound is " The Lotus Flower"

Song Please, what it's the name ? :o

This sound is " The Lotus Flower"

What is the name of the song?

I come here for the song :P

What name is that music?

what a great song!

Correct.

Hi Brian, your offer is probably less than the silver bullion value but the main value is the historic and numismatic. I think I paid about $20-30 a piece for these small ones which are about a tael each (36 grams) about 5-8 years ago. I would have to graciously decline. I think I already traded some of these from the video to another dealer for another coin. Anyways, I wouldn't trade or sell the small ones for less than USD$150 each as the China market is strong. You should check out EBay when these sell to get an idea. Plus, we have lots of Chinese collectors in Vancouver who pay top dollar and some who resell in China. Thanks. CP
