I'm waiting on this one and a few coins from my local P.O. I really hope it doesn't creep me out, I love the history and modern art connection. The ebay auction photo reminds me of when people put flashlights up to their faces to tell scary stories.

I think we should just wait to see it for ourselves after all it's a GRANDMOTHER moon mask not a GRANDBEYONCE . just wait for the next one the GRANDDAUGHTER will be much prettier. It's unique and I like it.

Wow there are some brutal pictures of this coin popping up on ebay.

Haven't seen a face that scary on a coin since the '02 Queen Mum dollar....

So I went to the post office today to see if they had any butterflies in. They did not so I looked and the case and saw this. I saw that it was actually really nice. So I decided to buy it. If I had buyers regret then I can sell it for a profit. But with 6,000 mintage I think it will go up. Here are some really bad photos I took.

I'm going to hold judgement till I actually have my coin in my hand but the pictures don't make it look good. I do have high expectations because of the advertised "ultra high relief"

I saw the moon mask at the Vancouver Boutique. Not impressed at at. The relief is not that "ultra high".

OK. Could any one please explain what is "High relief" of a coin is? I do not have any high relief coin.

Are those Venetian Glass Bug coins "High Relief"?

@BiBo - High Relief means the coin noticeably stand out to the naked eye. All coins have some sort of relief but high relief it stands out a lot. In my photos you can see it standing out.
