    I tried to take a look at this and got a "You cannot access this store from your country. We apologize for the inconvenience" message. Got the same thing in Safari, Firefox and Google Chrome browsers.

    Thank you for trying.If anyone google from an other country 1 oz.silver Zanzibar and go to pictures i think you can see it..There are all ready 3 pictures.
    Sorry i can not set an image myself.Maybe someone from a country that has access can set a picture here.
    I am wondering about the mintage.It seems interesting because it says silver in 15 of more languages in the design from i can see.It looks modern and stylish .The finish looks fine.

    Notging special. Pure silver? It would be better if it was "fine silver" words on the coin, this "pure silver" is a bit amateurish....

    I think it's cool and unique. Yeah it's not revolutionary or amazing, but I would consider purchasing it. They need to make it available to other countries. Not very smart. I hope some U.S company like APMEX picks it up.

    But yeah, I think it's cool that it is of Zanzibar. I know that sometimes countries mint the coins and only use other small countries and islands just for the name to make it 'legal tender' but I like collecting silver bullion rounds and bars from all over the world. And Africa isn't represented much. The only ones I have are from Rwanda (Wildlife Series) and the Somalia (elephant). So to add this would be pretty awesome.

    This coin is today on ebay.Mintage max 50.000.This is the first of a serie.
    Special is that every coin of the serie will be of an other country.

    Hello. My name is Marylen and I've just registered.
    I saw a few comments on the Vera Silver Zanzibar one ounce and wanted to give you further information on this coin. I actually work for Aucoffre.com/Lingold.com. We launched the Zanzibar one once (999.5 %oo fine silver) three months ago. It is QR coded on the reverse side in order to guarantee authenticity, individually Prooftag sealed, legal tender (1000 Tanzanian Shillings), struck by Agosi. Further information and photos are available at https://www.aucoffre.com/achat-terme.htm?ob=p&act=view&pg_id=167. The English page will be online next Monday. We will contact the APMEX in the next couple of weeks.
    Don't hesitate to let me know what you think : we are open minded people. The only thing I shall say is that the Vera Silver Zanzibar is a very nice coin with a Tanzanian legal tender. However, next year could be a different country. At least, this is what our target is.
    Thanks for your comments and welcome. Marylen.
