I can't see any silver!

Could be 1oz of paint.

I like the design but I am not sure that a small silver disk is the best medium for a painting, I like canvas better!
 
MC Escher will be pissed they stole his art style!! (what a rip!)

Will it get milk spots.. if so, who would pay big premiums knowing it will stain up like my nighty

These wont get milk spot. cause its not bullion, its the first proof silver dollar the sized of the maples, and yes it is native art, its not painted over its enameled in....

where can I buy this coin from??

cant now...just in a couple of weeks, its available for Master club members of the RCM....it's goin to be available on the mint site, and that's if its not sold out before (probably will) you'll have to get it from a RCM dealer....its predicted it will only take around 2000 orders to be sold out....i got 2 of them, it should do good.....


:D
 
I like this coin and have seen other Native American designs that are similiar that predate Escher. The Olympic coin with Indian Mask design was great coin. Have not had trouble with milk spots on my end. Would love to see more coins designed like this.
 
Enamelled?

Well that makes it a bit more interesting than a pad printed coin. I wouldn't mind seeing a few photos of the finished coin, the pictures just look like an artist's impression, they are both face on and look very matt, not glossy like you expect from enamelling.

Also the line between the red and green sections is very straight and precise for enamelling. It has been a long time since I did any enamelling but I would think this would be a cold process using coloured expoxy rather than traditional glass enamelling.

Is this from the RCM? I couldn't find it on their site, wouldn't mind a few more details.
