    The Cheetah and Meteorite coins do look great...and to balance things out the Golden Dog, Koala "bear" and Red Monkey coins look terrible! :D

    Yes the cheetah coin is very nice, i seen it in person, the color cheetahs and the the frosted ones, just beautiful cheetah coin so far i seen,in my opnion looks better then pic, Also the SS republic coin is outstanding, its the first time CIT partner with Odyssey, which discovered the ship, plus the coin has original coal from the ship, i am not sure but Odyssey was i think the same company or the submarine robot, which found titanic too, very intresting coin,loooks way better in hand, when i seen it, Packaging is very nice too, with mintage of 1865, plus donot forget the Mongolian Eagle too, liked it alot too,plus a lot people might not like it but 2013 Christmas coin is just beautiful, if u see it in real, in 3D, the angel wing looks beautiful.

    I'd be keen to see the Christmas coin "in the flesh", it has potential. The eagle coin does nothing for me, pretty mediocre design, we've seen it all before and it gets old, plus I've reckon I've seen enough birds on coins to last a lifetime! :D

    Actually I think they all look quite nice except Red monkey. Chrtistmas Star looks quite interesting and maybe even Koala. Now if I have a lot of money I would buy some of them, but in times like this, where you need to rethink about each purchase twice... Who knows. :)

    If any of the above mentioned coin is not "so new" please let me know and will remove it.

    The golden eagle coin is very nice, its hard to explain but when i looked at that coin, u see the snow mountain but they put hard to explain again, but its like they put some kind of sparkling thing on the white ice, which i think suppose to reflect the sun shines on ice, u see see a sparkling effect, sorry hard to explain, i should have taken pics of those coins, when i seen them, anyway i am sure someone will post or i will try to see if i can get real pics.

    I like the meteorite coin no doubt... the others... I don't know.. not so WOW.... I think that CIT presented these coins in ANA coin show in Chigago (is that correct zeeman?) and they keep best pieces with best design and technology for Berlin World Money Fair 2014.

    I'll take a pass on all of those. Designs are either quite boring or poor designs.

    This is from ANA coin show.

    Hopefully Berlin will bring more interesting coins. Well better to save more money for 10th Tiffany art. ;)
