This is taking packaging to a whole new level!

How cool KC!

They'll have to do a recall to include the "New" Planet Nine.

The timing couldnt be worse

$180 for a pop up book?

Who is this aimed at?
At $180 I wouldn't want my kids playing with it

Very interesting set. I have ordered one. Only 10,000 minted. All the coins are standard sized ones which I like. Although the 50 cent is round not 12 sided.

Finally a new Aluminium Bronze 38mm $5 coin plus a Bimetalic 28mm $5 coin as well. The RAM has not released a 28mm Bimetalic since 2002 when they did one for the Battle of Sunda Strait.

Probably a bit on the high price side at $180 ... but what can you do?

Cheers Mike

Gargh!!!

Damn you crappy astronomy coin collection. You are doing my head in.

I want to buy you. I do. But not at that price. It's ridiculous.

A wise man once said "you can't collect everything".
I should walk away.

With the amount of special $1 coins that I have missed due to their release method, I really shouldn't be worried about such a bizarre $1 coin that will live it's days in a MASSIVE fold out book.
It's got the same relevance to me as legal tender from the Perth Mint

You make me feel like dancing

Are we drifting off topic?

Unicorn · October 17, 2017, 06:24:45 PM

I was thinking that we're just on an unusual orbit .....

JeffH · October 17, 2017, 06:26:52 PM

It's the gravity field from planet nine.

May be other forum members will be interested in the other coins in the set and buy them off you.

I received my sets today. A great deal of work went into the packaging but the coins are not impressive.

I am really sorry that I think I have wasted my money on this set.
