The SYdney Cove Medallion 1oz. silver proof coin & Wedgewwod Plate Set that is selling from the Perth Mint,for $192(includes postage), is this a good collectors edition? They sure look nice, and the mintage is super low: 5,000 only. Is this a good coin to jump into?

I'm jumping on it. I don't know how tough it is to get "high-relief" from a concave piece, but it's the history of it. Orignally, it was minted in the late 1700's. I think it was commissioned by Lord Wedgewood, 7th generation of silver-spoons. As a collector of both plates & coins, I would expect them to do very well.
