    That's what I'm waiting for too... sure to see them pop up in the sales thread sooner rather than later.

    the kook has it really!, the tail sink into inside the silver, trying to fly out of the coin, like magic :p

    and the left wing looks like a peanut shell

    I like the box better, hope to get it tonight, and the box must be "unscratched"

    anyone seen a cracked HR coin capsules for sale here before? I need one.

    Hmmm.. i can imagine a low hanging tree by a riverbank with a kookaburra perched partially emmersed in water (ie the tail)... but are you saying that is what this is depicting?

    To me this looks like quite a high canopy tree branch given its girth etc and also vertical shoots?

    Im sticking to my original suggestion that they cut out the tail in what was essentially a design oversight (error)

    Happy to be proven wrong if anyone can confirm kook is partially underwater?

    its all part of the plan the hype up to this coin PM are masters at deception they get the adrenaline going and before you know it they have the cash, marketing is a strategy and they have taken the classes. why do the list coins at the middle of the night? because we are not thinking straight, why do they do the site crash? get everyone ramped up to buy when it comes back up, stop think and then think again about silver purchases emotions make decisions not based of facts.

    bunch of negative nancies you guys are. Jeez. Why you even spamming their site with the refresh button if you despise the dragons, the high reliefs, their marketing, etc?

    Sorry, but it gets annoying hearing a bunch of aussies whine about how jacked up the perth mint is. Americans would kill to have the perth mint in our borders.

    not me doing it i am just adding some clariity to the situation me am just here listening to some Porqupine Tree bit of early Coldplay and reading posts not interested in this coin to many mintage and to expensive. but dont let me stop anyone from buying it :)

    just saying they are cleaver thats all nothing more nothing less oh and a bit of my opinion which only matters to me and thats the main thing as long as i am happy with it dosnt really matter what anyone else thinks because they have theirs and thats what matters to them :)

    Perth Mint really need to fix their website once and for all - reminds me of when Dragon fever first hit the website.
