Another Poster's (member "Six" from MCM Forum) photos. My four are still in transit (? Canada Customs) . Coins look sweet!: Cheers, Luker
My sister has my good camera so I can't =( Anyways its like seen in that photo Luker posted. Coin is flawless, capsule has some small scrapes etc on it. Comes packaged very well in a box, inside of a bubble wrapped envelope with the COA in its own separate zip lock bag. Packaged tight so there is little movement. The coin looks very nice, cool to see the COA number on the rim! Seems like high quality!
According to tracking, if mine would have made it to a postal destination just 2-3 hours earlier along the way, I would have had 'em today. Now, I have to wait til Tuesday.. Thanks for the photos, Luker!
I agree BB. I think they hit a home run with this issue. Kudos to them for the great concept. I'll most likely sell my last one, useless of course I have number 1 - 10. If I have 1, 2, 3, and 4. I'm refunding the money to the buyers. Oops. lol. Just kidding of course. But in all seriousness, these guys knocked it out of the park.
They look really nice...wish I had purchased more than my 1 proof at $89. I look forward to my 4 BU's...the BU's will probably be high quality also. .
Zodiac Skulls 2/17/2015 400 pieces of Aquarius silver are scheduled to ship approximately on the 21st or 23rd, over 400 have sold orders for Aquarius silver placed on the 17th or after are estimated to ship in beginning of March waiting on Pisces sample, Pisces will go on sale immediately after sample is approved, stay tuned!
I really hate the designs of those skull zodiac coins. They should have wrapped up the Goat skull (a clear winner) instead of delaying their release and wasting time with these. It really rubbed me the wrong way to see them keeping everyone waiting on the skull goat coins in the meantime, but that's based on my assumption that whoever is minting the Skull goat coins is also minting these weird looking things. The skulls look like they came from the joker (batman) and the "T&A" outline on the Aquarius looks weird, and not in a good way. They could have done way better with the concept. Too folk artsy for my taste, with a bit of grateful dead thrown in for bad measure. We weren't the least bit tempted with these, and from the looks of it, not many others were either.
Well, I know I'm not going to make a lot of friends here, but I don't care one iota. I just received my 4 Proof Goat Coins, and I'm not impressed. Sorry S&M if you're reading this. This isn't a personal attack. Anyone care to take one off my hands #140. I'll sell it for 199.00, free shipping. I know, I know, this will go in the 4 sale area. You can see my listing on eBay. All the best who love these.
The designs of the coins were not my favorite to begin with but I feel the quality came out as described it would. What is it that is not impressing you?
Good question Nabullion. The quality is fine. Nothing wrong with it. Maybe it's the packaging? The coin didn't pop out at me. but again, I can't emphasize this enough, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, right? My wife looked at it, and said, 'I think it is a neat concept.' My son went, 'can I buy it?' He's a 11. When I said sure, 'for 200.00.' He changed his mind. LOL. But I think it is a great 89.00 coin, not a 200+ one. That's just me. I have mine for sale on eBay for 199.00. No takers yet. Fingers crossed. You want to buy it?
Details please!!! . . . my post had major lag, I see more detail was already provided, please disregard.
I believe I know why Barsenault feels the way he does. I think that once you start buying high quality, uber low mintage Chinese medals, everything else in comparison starts to look questionable. .
Haha I'll pass. Yeah the packaging was nothing special but there was much more effort put into it than they needed too. I'm not sure how your 4x came but mine was very nicely packaged minus a display box or something. In my silver coin infancy I paid $50 for a MaxCoin crypto Bullion. Got that in the mail about a month ago and it is crap. The coin was never meant to be a 200 plus dollar coin so as long as it delivered being a great 89.00 coin than I believe it succeeded.
