Amcorp Mall flea market-Collectibles Item

This is my 2nd post about Amcorp Mall Flea Market. Amcorp Mall free market open on Saturday and Sunday; from 9.00 am until 5.00 pm. The flea market of Amcorp Mall located in the mall at the lower ground and the 1st floor. The Amcorp Mall is a mall situated in Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia, located opposite the Taman Jaya LRT station which is served by the Kelana Jaya Line, operated by Rapid KL. It is also located in the proximity of the Petaling Jaya Hilton Hotel and the Armada Hotel. This is one of the flea market recommended by most collector for antique, coin, vintage and collectables item. You can also found food item, dress, jewelery, craft and other stuff in this market.

I divided my Amcorp Mall Flea market into two post. The other post is about coin and antique item that can be found in this flea market. A collectable or collectible is typically a manufactured item designed for people to collect. In this respect, they are distinguishable from other subjects of collections, which may also include natural objects (e.g., butterflies) and objects manufactured for purposes other than collecting (e.g., stamps). Some objects designed for other purposes, such as toys, become so popular among collectors that they are later marketed specifically to that audience.

The earliest collectibles were included as incentives with other products, such as cigarette cards in packs of cigarettes. Popular items developed a secondary market and sometimes became the subject of "collectible crazes". Eventually many collectible items came to be sold separately, instead of being used as marketing tools to increase the appeal of other products. To encourage collecting, manufacturers often create an entire series of a given collectible, with each item differentiated in some fashion. Examples include sports cards depicting individual players, or different designs of Beanie Babies. Enthusiasts will often try to assemble a complete set of the available variations.

I don't know much about Collectables item price but I can see that you can find many collectibles item in Amcorp mall flea market. You can find stamps, toys, cassette, compact disk, LP records, old boxes, coca-cola item, Books, Magazine and many item that I don't ever think people will collect. Some of the items are still in mint condition (look new and wrap in plastic). Do any of you been gone to Amcorp Mall Flea market lately? What have you buy? What is your experience in this flea market? Do you think this flea market is worth it for your weekend hang out? Share it here with the rest of us.

Latvia new coin bring controversy

Latvia new coin bring controversy when their own country health ministry write a protest letter to Bank of Latvia that the new coin is just a way to advertise alcohol. The Cupro-nickel coin was released earlier this month for Latvia solstice festival, where people will drink beers for the celebrations. The new Latvia coin controversy just making many Latvian queuing up outside the bank's branches to get the coin.

"The coin contradicts our efforts to cut down on the consumption of alcohol in society," the health ministry complained. It seems that the Bank of Latvia's press release accompanying the issue of the new coin caught the health ministry's eye too. It waxed lyrical about beer's positive qualities, noting that it was a well known cure against insomnia and had been used in the past for semi-medical purposes.

"After water and tea, beer is the third most popular beverage in the world," the Bank of Latvia enthused. "The builders of the Egyptian pyramids were given three vessels of beer a day."

A spokesman for the bank dismissed the health ministry's criticism as "not serious" however. "We might as well ban national traditions and the midsummer solstice itself (according to their logic)," he said.

Obverse: The large coat of arms of the Republic of Latvia, with the year 2011 inscribed below, is placed in the centre. The inscriptions LATVIJAS and REPUBLIKA, each arranged in a semicircle, are above and beneath the central motif respectively.

Reverse: A beer mug is in the centre, with the inscription 1 LATS beneath it.

Edge: Two inscriptions LATVIJAS BANKA, separated by rhombic dots.

Technical Specifications:

Face value: 1 lats

Weight: 4.80 g

Diameter: 21.75 mm

Metal: cupro-nickel

Minted by: Koninklijke Nederlandse Munt (the Netherlands).

Artists: Juris Dimiters (graphic design) and Andris Vārpa (plaster model)

New Canada $100 polymers

The Bank of Canada had just unveiled New Canada $100 polymers and $50 polymers banknote today in Ottawa. Information on the polymer material and advanced new security features was released, along with the images and designs of the new notes. Minister of Finance Jim Flaherty and RCMP Commissioner William J. S. Elliott joined Bank of Canada Governor Mark Carney for the unveiling ceremony of the New Canada banknote 2011.

Picture by CBC canada.

Minister Flaherty spoke of the importance of cash as a means of payment in the daily lives of Canadians, adding this is why it is important Canadians see their story reflected in the designs.

“These bank notes evoke the country’s spirit of innovation, and their designs celebrate Canada’s achievements at home, around the world and in space,” he said. “Bank notes are cultural touchstones that reflect and celebrate our Canadian experience.”

Picture by Star

The $100 note, which is to be issued in November 2011, features images that focus on Canadian innovations in the field of medicine: from pioneering the discovery of insulin to treat diabetes, to the invention of the pacemaker and to the role Canadian researchers have played in mapping the human genetic code. Sir Robert Borden, Prime Minister of Canada between 1911 and 1920, in an updated portrait, remains on the front of the note.

The $50 note, which will be issued in March of 2012, features images of the Canadian Coast Guard Ship Amundsen in the North, reflecting Canada’s leading role in Arctic research. It also evokes the part that Canada’s northern frontier—with its vastness and splendour—has played in shaping our cultural identity. An updated portrait of William Lyon Mackenzie King, the Canadian Prime Minister between 1921 and 1930 and again from 1935 to 1948, is on the front of the note.

The notes will contain a number of unique features that expand the frontiers of bank note security and will make them difficult to counterfeit but easy to check. Most prominent are two transparent areas: the larger area extends from the top to the bottom of the note and contains complex holographic features; the other is in the shape of a maple leaf.

“The Bank’s objective with every new series is to produce a bank note that Canadians can use with the highest confidence,” said Governor Mark Carney. "The Bank is combining innovative technologies from around the world with Canadian ingenuity to create a unique series of bank notes that is more secure, economic and better for the environment."

RCMP Commissioner Elliott stated that, “These new and technically innovative notes will go a long way to deter the threat of counterfeiting in coming years.” He added that the RCMP will “continue to work with the Bank of Canada, and our policing partners, to maintain public confidence in Canada’s currency.”

In the next six months, the Bank will focus on raising public awareness of the coming note series. It will also continue to provide information to the cash-handling industry to help prepare the system for polymer notes, and will work to inform retailers, financial institutions and law enforcement agencies about how to check the new security features once the notes enter circulation.

How to sell coins?

Many readers always asking me the same question; How to sell coins? Where to sell my coins? Do you know what is the best way to sell my coins? I wrote Where to sell your gold coins before in here but many people don't read it or don't know it is almost the same thing. Many newbies also asked about grading (UNC, EF, VF) and what they meant, I already wrote a grading tips for newbies (with pictures); newbies coins picture grading & newbies banknote picture grading. If you're looking for Malaysia coins & banknote price, I also had posted them before in price and value label/categories. 

How to sell your coins (banknotes) in Malaysia?

1. Sell them online

The best way to sell your coins is try to sell them online yourself in Mudah.my, lelong.com.my or eBay Malaysia. Its not hard to start. What you need is just to register your ID and post your item for sale. make sure you give the best pictures for your coins; obverse and reverse pictures. Your pictures should be around 800 pixels and buyer could see the details of the coin. You also need to give as much details as you can. If your item is proof coin, it will be easy to find the details since you have the card with you. If you don't have the details, try search them in Google. If you're newbies, try to avoid buyer from oversea. Don't forget to add your contacts number in the post.

2. Among other collectors.

Networking among other collectors is an important thing if you want to sell your items in the future. Without any friends, people will be afraid to deal with you since nobody know you. Most people afraid that they will get scam with a fake coins. Try joining a group in Facebook, register with Malaysia Numismatic Society or any other numismatic group you can find. Collectors will give you the highest price from other type of buyers. Just don't meet them online, meet them offline (in the real worlds) as well.

3. Coin shops

Coin shops should be the last place for you to look for buyer. Most shop will normally buy your coin at least 50% from their market value. Try to asked around on the same day for best price before you decide to sell them to the shops. You can also check online if your coin is rare. A rare coin have a high value if you're selling them in a coin shop. Just Google any inscription (writing) you can find on the coins and you might find one similar to yours. If you're in KL, you can always find all the Klang Valley dealers in Amcorp Mall or you can check their address in my Malaysia coin dealers list. Do remember though, old coins doesn't always mean that it has a high value. Most dealers most probably have a lot of coins like your in their stock.

PS: this tips only for normal & rare coins, if it is very rare, you can also send them to auction house. Will not discuss about it in here since it will make non collector confuse.

Their price are almost the same as you come to their shop. The only advantage is that you can find many coin dealer in one place. Easy for you to asked around if you want to look for a particular coin. There are at least 10 coin dealer open their table on this flea market. Some of them are friendly, while others will look at you as you want to steal their item. Maybe because of so many people coming to this flea market every week.

I divided my Amcorp Mall Flea market into two post. The other post is about collectibles item that can be found in the flea market. This are some of the picture I took for antique item. An antique (Latin: antiquus; old) is an old collectible item. An item which is at least 50 to 100 years old and is collected or desirable due to rarity, condition, utility, or some other unique feature. It is collected or desirable because of its age, rarity, condition, utility, or other unique features. It is an object that represents a previous era in human society. Antiques are usually objects which show some degree of craftsmanship, or a certain attention to design such as a desk or the early automobile. You can found watches, Chinese porcelain, gramophones, camera, medal and many antique item in this place.
