As far as for the price. You need to follow auction or ebay price because China coin and currency price move up year after year especially in the last two years price double, triple or even higher. In the last two years pretty much you buy in this auction then you can resell in next auction and make money.

you don't collect China coin you miss both the fun and money reward.
