Commentary: In general, prices have gone down with the exception of key date year 2000 and also new 2010 version. Price of 2010 version seem to have gone up but compared to previous months, excluding shipping costs, prices are actually down. In February, excluding shipping, coin cost S$38.87 but now it costs only S$37.02. However with shipping costs included, it is S$49.09 and S$55.84 for February and April respectively. In 414 deals, 402 were completed by a seller named midyatspor100 who charges US$15 for shipping. Total deal volume also doubled from 203 to 414 from previous month. It would be interesting to see how many more coins the seller (who lists 17 coins daily) has to sell.
