Lot Title: China - 2008 5oz gold Olympics Modern Sports 2000 yuan with wooden pedestals, certificate, dragon statuette, and outer case
Lot Number: 134
Description: Frank Lin Collection of Modern Chinese Rarities. Proof, Series III, 2000 Yn, double sealed, certificate number 1947, mintage of 2008 pieces. Includes presentation box, interfitting wooden pedestals, dragon statuette, certificate and coin. These are such pleasing commemorations of the popular 2008 Beijing Olympics, in addition to the exemplary bullion value of the 2000-yuan coin. In this case, we believe the coin would carry a very high grade, with only minor russet flecks near the center of the date side that will likely be easy to remove. Stunning quality (scotia).
Estimate: $7,500-$8,000

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
