Dear people,what do you think for this coin ? I have never seen a more beautiful coins.... coin was sold out within three days and can not be longer anywhere to buy. Highlights The design of the coin features the koru which is represented in the unfurling silver fern frond and the surrounding artwork represents the domain of Tne Mahuta Minted from 1 troy oz 0.9999 gold The coin is housed within a waka huia (ornamental carved vessel for taonga). Designed by Dave Burke and carved from a 50,000-year old New Zealand swamp kauri Mintage only 250pcs. http://coins.nzpost.co.nz/2013/maori-art-koru-gold-proof-coin http://www.eurocollections.com/store/product.asp?id=7565
Nice coin but the secondary buyers market would be quite small I imagine. Double current spot limits its investment value. Would be happy to pay double or triple spot for a silver version.
Yes ,silver is also nice .Price for Gold now is about 3300$ in market . Silver must pay about 120-130$ maybe litle higher.
Downies have the silver version for $129. Already $189 on eBay. Just get someone to gold-plate it for you
I'm thinking of buying silver version too. Some German dealers have it for around 129$ which is quite ok price. And it's limited to only 2000. But it looks like it's third in the series.

EDIT: 5oz or bigger would be nice too!
Yes litle but Maori it is more beauty From Canada,Mask series beter is also this: http://colonialacres.com/products.php?view=2637&ref=54 http://www.coinsfromworld.com/canada-2008-300-gold-coin-four-seasons-moon-mask-p-156.html This coins is nice but price is tragic and very high ! if someone has know where you can buy it please contact me,please...
I like the 1997 Canada gold Haida Mask because of the high relief design. I prefer coins that are NOT colorized or processed additionally after minting like the other examples of Canada gold masks you provided (e.g. hologram designs, enameled, painted, etc.). Good luck with the hunt.
When you own and hold an Aztec calendar coin in your hand to admire it's incredible design and workmanship, you realize that the Maori coin design is not impressive at all. I will take a pass. .
That's true mmissinglink, but this one is more than 10x cheaper. Well, if I have to pick between 10 1oz Maori coins and 1 kilo coin I would probably take 1 kilo coin any day.
