I'll definitely try to take pics when it arrives, but I have a feeling it's not going to fit into my macro photography rig...

Quote: All right, after much pleading, whining, cajoling, begging and offering of logical arguments as to why this would really be a great investment... Heh heh... glad to hear that your begging and whining routines have been polished to a fine art and that they were successful!  I agree with the others. You GOTTA post a couple of pics of that monster when it comes in. Be sure to put something in the pic with it to give us some idea of the scale. Even if it doesn't fit into your micro-photo apparatus, do the best you can with it, any way you can. Don't make us beg, whine, or cry for it!

The 1 Kilo Dragon Coin just arrived!     I'll post pictures as soon as I can, but I just wanted to mention that the coin seemed much smaller than I expected upon first glance. It's not all that much bigger than the 5 ounce ATB coins put out by the U.S. Mint, in fact. The difference, of course, is that the 1 kilo dragon coin is much thicker than the ATB coins -- a true "hockey puck," if you will. Also, the coin is a reverse proof, as I had suspected and hoped. Couldn't tell from the product images, but hopefully I'll be able to do a better job with my pictures.

Did that come in an air-tite?

Yes, it came in an air-tite. Darn near ripped off my finger and thumb nails trying to get the blasted thing open...

That's an outstanding and very beautiful silver bullion coin, barryg! I'm also really liking this 1kg format and it's storage-friendly dimensions.

Those are a couple of scary looking dragons :) It makes the ATB look like a piece of paper.

Wow! That is one humongous hunk of silver!  Had to laugh at the obverse though... $30? Really? LOL! Maybe they should have put $1000 there?
