I assume this is from the Perth Mint, not from the RAM?
life is a mystery to be lived not a problem to be solved

I noticed that they are even releasing an octopus coin. Must be the "Australian Octopus". Are they only in Australia?

I think that the third coin the the second series is a Blue Tang rather than a Surgeonfish - however I am not a fisherman so could be wrong!

AUSTRALIAN SEA LIFE II - THE REEF - HAWKSBILL TURTLE 2011
1/2 oz silver
RRP: $ 67.50
Mintage -- 10,000

It's kinda cute as it picks up from the first series of sea life with Lionfish, Leafy sea dragon, Clownfish, Seahorse and Moray eel.

Unsure if I would go into collecting something that is a series as you would have to try and get the whole collection. But I do like the idea of the Octopus and Manta Ray.... If they are really good pictured and look life like then I might consider getting one.

As a collector of any and every legal tender Australian 50c coin, they are a must for me, but I can see why others don't like/want them. As for getting the set, you can pre-order the whole set from any number of dealers as well as the Perth Mint. I have already locked mine in even tho I tend to agree with others that the recent Perth Mint issues are a little pricey.
