    I think it may be a fraction shorter in length but a little wider and maybe as deep. Hows that for a guess. : )

    Stoopid question - roughly how much are the sharks going for?

    I'm pretty interested in getting one but don't want to pay huge $$

    I thought I would post this picture here seeing as it HAS to be the image used to make the coin.

    I saw this picture even before I knew about the coin. I'm not sure but it doesn't look exactly "real" does it?


    Either way, it's a terrifying picture! : )

    Do we have any estimates on overall price of the sharky? Thinking of getting one as my first coin if they're still up for grabs!

    About the Coins


    Ever since men went to war in aeroplanes, they have felt the need to decorate their mounts with unofficial and personal markings known as Nose Art. Often frowned upon by authorities, these colourful decorations have in turn been inspiring, emotive, aggressive, humorous, cynical or even tasteful.

    This coin set celebrates the Nose Art with famous imagery from the time. The coin set consists of 3 1oz .999 silver coins and is limited to a mintage of 3,000 sets only.


    Reverse Design

    These coin represent some of the most famous Nose Art of WWII Bombers. Background detailing of rivets in the plane panels.


    Obverse Design


    The Raphael Maklouf effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, sovereign of the Commonwealth and Niue.


    Packaging


    Each set is presented in a custom tin replicating plane paneling. A certificate of authenticity comes with each set.

    Hi Maggie, can you put me down for a set of the pinup girls please? I hope to get them if I can afford them when the price comes out, but I should be good.

    Thank you
