    Have to say that this coin is one of the worst design by PM.

    Great video Alex. Even though plenty of steps of the production of this coin were not shown, it's still truly fascinating to see how much work goes into producing a single coin. The actual coin in the video looks much better than the illustration. I'd buy it but my purse is very tight these days and besides I just bought the Mesopotamia coin from First Coin Co.

    Thanks mmissinglink! I am also fascinated by what is behind the scenes in the production of a coin :)

    Yes, Mesopotamia coin was also my first choice of these days, I had no doubt to grab a couple of pieces as soon as I saw it online, and I was right cause price on feebay and also other sites I am checking prove this is going to be an exclusive and expensive series!

    This coin looks very un Chinese. Would've been way better with no colour.

    Everyone has different tastes. To me, it's a nice design. There are Chinese cultural meanings embedded, including the colour of each animal, the background behind them, and the relation between animals and the yin yang symbol.

    I think it is a smart coin, and I have purchased a couple. I do think the price was a bit high but I hope it will be worth it.

    Received my coin today from the Perth Mint. I am very happy with the design & quality. A wee bit expensive but I am satisfied with it. It is currently unavailable at the mint website. If I remember correctly, the mint only released about 300 coins in batches of 100. None were offered by the wholesalers, yet no longer available. Strange.

    Coin looks amazing... but the price seems extremely steep. Especially with the fact Silver could well slide downhill further.

    I'm going to stick with my Lunar's for the time being. I've been a bit lax lately as I've not been able to purchase any with my Wedding taking all my funds. I may grab one of these if one pops up in time to come :)
