TRIGOMETRIC AUCTION 15TH MARCH 2015 - SURPRISES AND DISSAPOINTMENTS

With the recent concluded Trigometric auction there were many surprises where those you dont expect were making staggering realized price. And those hot items where you expect making new highs were left under perform.

There are many blogs/websites had reported about several big notes and 2 pieces of 1953 QE II coins ended with hundreds of thousands of Ringgit Malaysia (RM) realized price and by now everyone knew about these amazing achievements.

Therefore i chose not to repeat on blogging about them otherwise my article may sound similar like "copy and paste".  So i chose to write about those lacklustre items that once consider as laggards but now had sprung to life with remarkable realized prices.

Realized price RM1800 + 15% (BP)

Realized price RM1500 + 15% (BP) for 2pcs

Begining of 2014 these 12th series RM50 Zeti Aziz (with Merdeka Logo on the back) were selling for RM80.00 per piece.

Realized price RM800 + 15% (BP) "low number"

Once upon a time this replacement note ZAC was selling for RM15.00 per piece (for normal S/N).

Realized price RM8000 + 15% (BP). Ali Abul Hassan side signature

Realized price RM900 + 15% (BP). 1972 RM10 Ismail Ali 2nd series.

Malaysian banknotes from the 1st series (1967) to the 4th series (1981) remain very strong.

Realized price RM2700 + 15% (BP) for 2pcs. 5th series Aziz Taha

During the 1st quarter of 2014 these were selling for a mere RM500 each (UNC ungraded).

Realized price RM5000 + 15% (BP). 5th series Aziz Taha

This piece of RM500 were selling for RM2500 (UNC ungraded) in 1st quater of 2014.

The appreciation of this proof TAR coin is unbelievable and i'm at the loss of words.

Realized price RM11,000 + 15% (BP). 50 Dollars 1 Jan 1942, King George VI, (KNB14:P14), Serial no. A/12 32846 ageing, stain, VF

Realized price RM2000 + 15% (BP). 50 Dollars 21 March 1953, Queen Elizabeth II, (KNB4a:P4a) Serial no. A/9 572854 With stain GVF

It is about time collectors starts to realize that King George V, King George VI and Queen Elizabeth banknotes are laggards and has been asleep for a very long time since their peak in 2007-2008.

Realized price RM7000 + 15% (BP). Buffalo "BIG A" S/N

Realized price RM7000 + 15% (BP). Buffalo "BIG B" S/N

1961 $10 Buffalo still command very strong price and still the collector favorites and the prices still did not wane

Happy collecting.

MALAYSIA 1970 20 CENT PARLIAMENT SERIES COIN

This is the most sought after "the most important" key date by collectors in the Parliament coinage series, the 1970 20sen of having the least mintage of 1.054million pieces and was minted by Royal Mint UK. No doubt its mintage may seem huge but as for circulation coin it was considered the least mintage. Furthermore where can you find in BU condition after 44 years ? (as the time of posting this article 04/11/2013).

If you don't belief how rare to find a used or circulated 1970 20sen try breaking your piggy bank after years of "dumping" loose change into it. Tell me by commenting below how many pieces have you found ? Don't be disappointed if you can't find any (you are not the only person though). Make this a challenge for yourself since it is now school holiday season.

FYI, the Royal Mint UK have minted Malaysian coin in the period of 4 years from 1967 - 1970 thereafter it was minted by local our producer the Kilang Wang Malaysia.

Contact me if you're interested in this coin. You can either call me (for local Malaysian) or send me an email.

MALAYSIA KIJANG EMAS GOLD COIN

Well this is my first post of my blog and would like to share with you some of my personal collections which are NOT for sale and some are for sale.

I would like to start my blog with our Malaysia Kijang Emas.

The Malaysian Kijang Emas was first minted in December 2000 by the Royal Mint of Malaysia. It was launched by the then Prime Minister of Malaysia, Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad on 17 July 2001.
Malaysia is the 12th country in the world to issue its own gold bullion coin, and joins the ranks of the Canadian Gold Maple Leaf, American Gold Eagle, Australian Gold Nugget, and South African Krugerrand.

Thus making the mintage for year 2000 the lowest and consider Kijang Emas as a Semi-Numismatic coin. However the Kijang Emas was minted for only 3 years until 2003 and have stopped and this makes it very rare and sought after for bullion gold coin collectors.

Malaysia is the 12th country in the world to issue its own gold bullion coin. The Kijang Emas now joins the ranks of other international gold bullion coins. The design of the obverse of the Kijang Emas depicts a barking deer ("kijang") in its natural habitat in the Malaysian jungle. The reverse side features the hibiscus, the national flower of Malaysia.

This gold coin was issued by MALAYSIA CENTRAL BANK (BANK NEGARA MALAYSIA) which is legal tender with face value.

Malaysia Kijang Emas Gold Bullion Coin 1/4oz. 999.9 pure gold.
Year of Issue 2000
Face Value : RM50 (MYR)
Weight : 7.78grams
Condition : BU
Price : USD530.00 for each coin (payment by PAYPAL)
