If you want it to be a small series - say two or three coins - how about 'Non Venomous Australian Animals'?
Ultra High Relief, Natural Disaster series Flood, Fire, Earthquake, Hurricane, Tornado, Heat, Cold, Drought
I'd like to see a transportation theme set, boats, trains, planes, trucks etc. Personally I think it would be really cool to do fish, there are so many different kinds of fish all around the world and I rarely see them on coins. I noticed the us wildlife series set included a largemouth bass that I would like to find seperatly but I haven't seen much more than that.
That's a simple but really good idea. Are there any coins that you think were poorly executed and that you wanted to be better?
LOL! Thank you, the cast bars seem to be very popular. Jokes aside, do you have any good themes that you can think of?
empires from history with images of iconic people and or achievements of the empire. Roman greek Persian Egyptian and ottoman empires Icons people and events, Olympics, greek buildings, pythagorus, Coliseum, gladiators, Julius caesar Saladin crusades and great battles Also i like the eagle bar
1) Countries of the world. Only 195/6 to collect. 2) Planets in our solar system. 3) Most evil people in the world: Obama, Rothschilds, George Soros, Kissinger, Clinton & Bush crime families, Merkel, Juncker, Alan Greenspan, Christine Lagarde, Benjamin Netanyahu, Dick Cheney, John McCain, etc. (And obviously you'd write their crimes on the (20 metre diameter!) coins so that generations later it would show them as being evil and not admired people.) 4) Financial criminals of the world: The entire Rothschild family dating back to 1700s. Again, mark their evil clearly on the coins. (This would be PERFECT for silver coins since is may very well be silver that ultimately destroys their criminal enterprise.) 5) Major silver mines of the world. It would be cool to make each coin with the silver (impurities included, if any) directly from that mine into each coin. 6) Largest gold nuggets ever found. (Yes, I know I said gold, not silver... but selling a dozen coins in silver as a set is much easier than if they were made in gold.) 7) Most iconic/recognisable cars: mini, jaguar e-type, ...??? 8) "Sizes". That is, make a set of varying size coins - ounces and/or grams. 9) Icons of the world: Eiffel tower, pyramids, Taj Mahal...
10) Earth, wind, water, fire. 11) Summer, Autumn, Winter, Spring. 12) Man's greatest inventions or achievements: computer, aeroplane, the wheel, telephony, landing on the moon, etc 13) Vices: alcohol, drugs, gambling, sex, prostitution, etc. 14) Constellations in the night sky (zodiac related?) 15) Periodic table 16) Rare/valuable metals: gold silver, platinum, palladium, rhodium, etc 17) All commonly known metals: nickel, copper, iron, zinc, gold, aluminium, tin, lead, etc 18) Largest uses of silver: photovoltaic, electronics, medicine, coins, jewellery, bullion, photography, mirrors, water purification, etc 19) A mural or puzzle: where an array of say 5x4=20 coins are arranged together such that they make a larger image. One side of the coins can have any "theme" but the other side has a component of the mural. time for a coffee break now.
I wish the yabbies got that big over here. I need 20 just to feed myself. Cant wait till the kids stop being scared of them and actually help with catching instead of just coming along and panicking each time they catch one.
Australian Utes and panelvans. All the bathurst winners and a special one for the legend Peter Brock...
I would like to see different shapes, like triangle, square, star etc. perhaps more complex shapes like as well. They could also have different colours on them. Some examples of shapes that can be used: Source: Source: Source: Source:
The various moods of a sloth. The safety coin series (non-slip, high-vis etc.) Extreme fractional series
Different techniques of mining. Surface mining (Panning, Metal detecting etc), underground mining, high wall mining etc
I would aim for something that would appeal to two or more collector types Harley Davidson motorcycles WW1 planes Navajo style (could stick some turquoise and or coral on the coins) An Aussie theme I would like would be a series on bushrangers
How about a series paying tribute to silver itself? You could depict the stages in silver production, mining, refining, casting, minting. Alternatively, a series showing some of the uses to which silver has been put through the ages, i.e. ancient currency, bullion, modern coinage, silverware, jewellery, computing, photography, etc.
