    I got a flyer too, this must be about the third one in the series. http://www.macquariemint.com/TermsConditions.aspx actually, looks like they have done a few, I don't remember getting those flyers!

    Members of the coin club keep getting them too.

    There was trouble over the first one they brought out...

    What! You mean you aren't going to pay $10 for a $10 coin?
    You must be crazy!
    Yep, I got one as well and threw it in the bin.
