I may have to get 2 each of the silver and copper since I'm celebrating 2 Pisces birthday's...family member and close friend....will make for nice gifts. .
I like this one much better than the 1st! But man, do I still hate that skull on the Ag's reverse. Is it as bad in person? And are the fish strong enough to overpower it? Almost hate to say it, but somewhat tempted to pick this one up..
Yes, capsule for certain. The Aquarius did not come in a box. The unique serial number for each coin is engraved onto the edge of the coin....this feature is usually only reserved for ultra high premium modern semi-numi coins....I really like that feature. .
I like the pisces design much more than first coin in series Aquarius. I think I am going to grab a couple of them too! Alex.
I think I like first one more. I don't remember seeing before "skeleton" lady with boobs. Well the second one has sort of "ying-yang" effect. Definitely an interesting series. Looks like SM found a gold mine with skulls. Only downside for me is that new coin is released every month which is quite an overkill for me taking into account shipping and potential custom fees. Having whole set in one, custom made, box could be a killer though. Personally Chinese signs are more interested for me as I love tigers (and dragons) compared to lion and "few people with various items" (Virgo, Aquarius, etc.).
I like the Ying yang fish for sure. I think I actually like the copper (because it doesn't have the weird smiling skull on the reverse). Any dealers in Australia likely to have them for sale?
I believe First Coin Company policy is to reimburse customs fees and they may offer free shipping. I'd contact them and ask those questions. Copper reverse is cooler looking than silver....but silver is silver and silver stackers like me like to buy silver. .
Great video Luker! The coin looks really good....so much better than in flat pics. What about the copper...ya gonna do a video on that too I hope. .
Sorry for the confusion, but that is not my video. It was posted and created by Silver Hub I believe, and I've edited my post to reflect that.
Al Berry's (from Modern Coin Mart Forum)Photos: ..and I am jealous of his low numbers! Mine should arrive any day... Cheers, Luker
^ I am on subscription with this series and even I don't get low numbers! Not a big deal at all actually...I really like the series so far and the price for this high quality product is well worth it; that's all that really matters to me. .
The price is not great when I factor in the AUD exchange rate and shipping costs. And the copper round is significantly overpriced. It would have been better to limit the copper mintage significantly, or include it free with the coin with a matching mintage. Edit: and eBay fees, crappy PayPal exchange rate, etc
