The fatigue is definitely a large part of it, but an understandable aspect: best to get in on a good thing before your time passes. But like a lot of mints these days, more and more things keep getting pumped out that just water down what was done before. As an example, the KOMSCO coins (for...

Everyone is indeed entitled to their own opinion, and no offense to you or your site was meant: I commented "Mik gushes over all of their releases, but I don't see how this one stands out" simply because I didn't agree with your kind words for this release. I stated above my reasons why I didn't...

I think that is the right approach. They just need to be careful on pricing. I mentioned earlier that the pricing on the 10oz from last year was on the high side, which is why I didn't pick one up. Hopefully they are listening and learning.

That's true. Hopefully they won't water this series down too much with too many variants: they should spend the time on coming up with new coins and new designs.

Yeah, I preferred the 2018 as well, but I still like this one too. Interesting that they are going only with tubes.

I don't think you are wrong. Too many variants kill a series, and it also shows a lack of ingenuity.

That's a good guess, but for the fact that "it" is lower case (should be capitalized if it is meant to be Italian). They are really using the word in a popular sense and I'd guess some feminists might have a problem with the usage: common North American usage in the way the Mint is using the...

The Toronto Raptors NBA team. Their logo is a basketball with claws ripping through it: just do a search and you will see what I mean. This coin has a similar style, but is using the tiger as the background. That said, I have the first tiger coin, and I like this so will grab it when I see it...

First guess would be the Toronto Raptors (i'm serious).

Koresare is posting stuff from his store site, so you can go here to see the coin:

I said I was trying to stop talking about the Mint of Poland releases as it was giving them too much publicity to have so many threads jacking up fake interest, but some observations. 1. the designs don't seem to be improving with each new release but becoming more stale (at least this one...

I was told that the dealer (coin shoppe) had a problem with it as well when they received it but was told by the mint it was supposed to look like that. But that is far from believable. Every dealer is showing pristine images. There was no need to "wear down" the coin as the image itself and the...

lol the selective gold plating would be very interesting for sure :) I think the mosaics is very interesting, but it's not my thing: I only buy what I like. But you can see the value from the design and originality, and the aftermarket prices are showing that collectors agree. Kudos to them...

They are riding a wave...well, they were riding a wave. It's simple greed. But it is remarkable that they don't understand what they are doing enough to see where it is leading to. Again, this isn't the first collectible market for this to happen to, and it always ends the same way. Yes, their...
