Got my coin today!!! It is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G !!!! Design is great, coin quality is excellent with great details like Gulo Gulo, Hedgehog etc. (also because it is the same mint) but after a first look at the nano-chip with a $5 Portable Microscope w/ 60x magnification I couldn't believe my eyes! Guys this thing will leave my friends speechless when I'll show them Definitely my best buy this year!
Just for information, now Nano Sistine Chapel coin is available also at Downie's / Eurocollections: http://www.eurocollections.com/store/product.asp?id=7229 Maybe that's better for Austalian customers (no customs, cheaper shipping cost). Alex.
The depth and clarity of cast shown on the coin in that photo does indeed look remarkable, even without the chip it is desirable.
There's another video about the coin I fell in love with: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vSqYlTlGvng[/youtube] Language is German but there are subtitles in English. It seems the Nano Sisitine Chapel coin is being analyzed by a numismatic expert while there is a sale going on on TV. With those prices now I am definitely convinced I made a great deal buying in time this masterpiece Now I look forward for new 2013 coins, especially new Tiffany Art and next coin in Mongolia Wildlife series. These are my new "can't miss" coins Alex.
I bought both of them. Nano earth for $240 Nano Sistine for $299 These coins are indeed VERY interesting. It's got potential!!!
This stuff is amazing guys, I am more into art so I think that the incomparably beauty of "Nano Sistine Chapel" coin is unique, but also this thing is unbelievable Alex.
I heard some rumors that the second coin in "Ceiling of Heavens" series, with nano-chip, will be issued soon. Does anyone know something more?
I know... a new issue of "Ceilings of Heaven" is in work... will be presented in autumn. Even more impressive than the Sistine Chapel.
This series is really nice. No wonder since it's actually made by CIT. And it's (for me) far nicer than nano earth. I've managed to get 1 piece, and will probably buy another, but prices on feeBay are increasing.
I didn't see any picture yet, but I read some rumors in another forum that the second coin in Nano Ceilings of Heaven series will be much more beautiful than first one, and that the nano chip will depict 20 different ceilings in a single nano-chip, or something like that. I am soooo curios now, this other coin will probably be my best buy in 2013 Alex.
So I'm guessing, based on the series name, that the coins will consist of designs taken from various church/chapel/religious building ceilings around the world However, apart from the Sistine Chapel I'm kind of at a loss to think of any others that would be of such a high standard to be included...
