    Im looking to mint a new coin series. I am stumped as to what would be a good theme to go with because it looks like nearly everything has been covered.

    Any ideas :D

    Microscopically etched books, with the text on one side, and an illustration or cover on the other.

    Something like the Rosetta Project (http://rosettaproject.org/about/), but with far less text.

    A series of famous Internet cats. When silver becomes worthless and people are using kilo bars to weight down bags of beanie babies and Pokmon cards when they throw them in the river, sad lonely Internet types will still pay to get that long cat (that's long) to finish the set, then their lives will finally be complete.

    Otherwise I think a series of famous historic world currencies that have been either fractional reserve, diluted metal content or full fiat. You could sell it as the money you know and love that's finally worth something. Everything from 19th century British pound notes through ancient Chinese and Roman bronzes and silver/gold coins that had their prescious metal content halved (or more).

    I always thought the 7 ancient wonders of the world would make a great limited edition coin series.

    You could get Skyrocket to get onto his buddy Billy to share some pictures. I'd be worried they would all look like shop manekins wrapped in foil.

    Maybe some notable silver stackers portraits after a few pints at a local meeting, easily as scary as a reptilian from zeta reticuli.
