Sorry if it's already been posted. Just saw these up on the Perth Mint site: Source: Perth Mint Source: Perth Mint Source: Perth Mint Along with the dragons which have already been posted here.
as hideous as that koala is, for some reason i actually kinda like how it's claws stick out on the border of the coin.
thats really fortunate cos you'll have a whole twelve months worth of supply in all likelyhood being the only 1oz silver bullion thats issued with an unlimited mintage by perth mint in 2012. 1for1
I like the kangaroo. Much better than the 2011 version, although my favorite is still the 2010 boxers. The Kook gives me the heebee jeebies. My initial reaction on the koala is that it is not that bad. Because of the unlimited mintage, I probably won't get any, but I don't think it is ugly like most people seem to think.
i just can't see myself buying any at all, the premium on perth mint coins generally is too high, a couple of lunars and a 10oz kook for the collection and that's me for perth mint each year. There's many other better value purchases to be had if you know where to look. Re: the whole 'unlimited mintage' thing. I would like to know what the final mintage ended up being on the 2011 koalas. I dare say it would be a lot less than ASEs or even probably pandas. I guess the number won't be released til next year some time.
