    For me, this is one of the most beautiful sets out there. Amazing detail. I also like the Belarus Silver Fairy Tale 10 coin set. When I get the time, i will post some pictures of that set.

    Belarus Zodiac Coin Set in Presentation Box. Only 200 sets were produced in this presentation packaging.

    Awesome pics. Unique artwork and stunning detail. Belarus has put out some great series. I personally like the "Legend" series as well as the "Ships"

    I am collecting the Legend Series as well but I am missing the Tortoise. Anyone know where I can find the Tortoise Coin for less than $60.00? I don't want to pay $100 for the Tortoise Coin which some ebayers are asking.

    This set is worth much more if you have belarus COA's, not polish.

    It maybe difficult nowadays to get this less than 60, if you are looking for 20R coin, not 1R

    I am looking for the 20 R tortoise.

    I got the skylark, cuckoo and stork coins for under $60.00.

    Very nice single pics of the zodiac series. The best thing is - in real live the coins are looking much more better than this very good pics are able to show.

    The hedgehoc is a very nice coin, but this series looks like much better and they are still cheap. Each coin has a mintage of 25.000.

    A complete set isnt easy to find, issue was in 2009. Some dealers have some single ones in stock. The only thing i don not like at this series, its only 925/1000 silver and lower than 1oz.

    If you want to buy this series be careful because there are cupro-nickel coins also. They do not have the stones and no antique finish

    You are right. Photos do not do these coins justice. IMHO they are more beautiful than the Mongolian Potection Wildlife Series. I tried to source out them piece by piece but you are right. Too time consuming. Just make sure they 20 ROUBLES and not the 1 Rouble Coin.

    Additionally to this, try to get these coins with Bank Of Belarus COA's (instead Mint Of Poland). I can easily get this set in Poland right now for 900 USD but the one with BOB COA's is about 1300-1400 USD (the cheapest I can find and one set only).

    This is a very nice set. Too bad there are 12 signs - makes owning a set that much more!

    Acme, are there many different cases for this set? The one you posted is obviously different from the one silverfever did. Which one would have the Bank of Belarus COAs?

    Why does the COA affect the price so much?

    Thanks!
