@Debtgirl, isn't LuLu the cutest?

@The First Million, frequently I obtain coins like this relatively cheap at local estate sales or through private trusted collections. I am an avid treasure hunter and collector of oddities.

@Pauline, yes, it is extremely important to carefully consider the ease of a resale. Fortunately there is a healthy demand behind this unicorn coin series due to limited production from the Chinese government and the beauty of the actual coins.

@Edward, I am intrigued to hear about creative items that others enjoy collecting. Key chains sound pretty neat actually! I would love to travel to different exotic countries to bring back a unique key chain or memento from each destination.

@Jen, isn't she a weensy beauty?

@V., for now this is just a quirky hobby of mine. Some day however I'd like to transition into artifacts and ancient coins.

@Glen, a bit of both, I do have a love for collecting older coins due to the historical value. And I do expect this gold unicorn to hold its own—as much as (if not better than) fiat currency, at any rate.

@Catherine, thank you!

@Jason, the boy likes to poke fun at me because I prefer oddities (ie, a coin over, say, a ring or other piece of jewelry.)

@Femme Frugality, isn't that totally neat? The Asian designs for the rest of the series are so interesting. One even depicts a little Buddha riding on the back of the Qi'lin.

@Marvin, thank you, sir!

@Maria, are you a treasure hoarder hunter as well?

@KK, oooh, yarn! Knitting actually is on my 'to-learn' list this year.

Do you expect them to appreciate in value? Or do you collect them for fun?

Is this just a hobby or do you have some ultimate goal in mind?
