@silverdollarnuts, yes they are nice, but I find the colored aussie dragon the nicest of the dragon coins this year.  |

Perth mint's year 2000 dragons are real nice, but I am with silverdollarnuts on this one. I find the RCM to be a lot more creative than the Australians. This year's dragons from Perth Mint are nice, but the design is typical/traditionally chinese/overdone I find. And, Perth Mint always beats their designs to the ground, with 5 different finishes and as many sizes and weights. |

I find that Aussie Colored Dragon to be cartoonish and ugly. The RCM Lotus Dragon is the best one out there in my opinion. I am looking forward to this Moose. I like the concept of different bullion animals twice a year. I wish the quality was as nice as the Aussie animals or the Chinese Panada (best of them all). I am wondering if they will continue the animal series after this year? I think they were only supposed to do six, but maybe they can scale it back to one new animal per year and just make it a continuing thing. It seems to be popular and the demand will probably be ongoing, so I don't see why not. |

I found a more realistic picture of the bullion moose coin.  |

That sheep is not too bad where did that pic com from. Would rather have one that is the same style as the moose though.

Maybe mints should do a program for foreign exchange engravers! Australia is so chock full of cool animals - the possibilities are almost endless.

You could make an argument that Canada is full of "Cool" animals if you were an Australian. Moose, Polar Bears, Beavers, Otters, Lynx, Arctic Foxes, Walrus, Wolves, Cougars.......
The Canadian Lynx is one of my all-time favorite animals, there is just something mystical looking about them. Perhaps I will get a Lynx coin next.

Yes, they had about 34 in stock on Wednesday night, then they only had 2 left this morning, now they have 94, actually 82 as of 5:26pm, which will go down rapidly as people are just getting home and getting their notifications.
Get yours soon people, this coin will appreciate quickly.
