    Nice looking coins - Koalas look better in miniature :) however at $14.95 ($149.50/ounce) a piece I don't think I will be getting any.

    I wouldn't buy them, as you said the price makes it expensive plus they are so tiny... i mean, it's not gold.

    Sometimes they have some crazy discounts on prepaid 3g modems...

    Apart from that, no, not really :).

    Or if you find a post office in woop woop that has coin stock that hasn't sold in the last decade or more and has the old prices - I've heard rumours of these beasts but never come across 1.
