Without the McDonalds' arches and the blank eyes, the gold coin would have been an excellent design. The wool on the silver sheep just doesn't look right to me. Then again, I didn't see any sheep in or around Cairns, so I have no idea what Australian sheep look like. It will be nice to see actual photos of these coins.
Yup, I've been wondering the same thing. With the advertising section is now gone, hopefully GS can advise us on the pre-order and sale dates in this or similar thread.
Certainly the silver coins look better in the flesh... These are all available for preorder now and should all be in stock first week September.
I've never liked the gold kangaroos much (or bought any), but I like this KangaMoon one. Will have to pick up at least a 1/4oz
i cant wait to buy a couple 10oz coins in each silver, 10 or so 1/10oz gold goats and maybe a half oz gold, completely miss out on the 1oz gold goat cos i was to late , develop an interest in the 1oz silver goat when the premium is high later in the year cos i hated it at the start, and somehow end up with one single kook that i have no idea how i got. that seem to be my story every year.
We need some crosshairs on the Gold Kangaroo coin and its a classic side profile for a roo shooter at night!
Damn, I love the Gold Kangaroo. If it looks that good in the flesh metal, I think I've decided to finally buy a full 1oz coin.
Out of that design you see the balls :lol: The koala looks has a big head like Japanese cartoon characters or is it a drought koala and half starved? Other than that I like the designs.
Didnt know they still target the tourists. Anyway the Koalas is always high from chewing the gum leaves.
A very puffy vanilla video but you get a quick look at the coins. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOlLssW5r30[/youtube] Clearly the sheep aren't modelled or imagined using Australian sheep at all. That said, the Gold sheep is standing in a very firm and bold pose for such an animal and makes it look quite noble. Can't wait to order one. The silver one is ok. But when I buy them they'll stay in their roll and never be looked at until sale time so who cares.
