NZMint released their version of the royal baby coin with the mintage of 1500: http://coins.nzpost.co.nz/2013/roya...r-proof-coin I personally won't buy any of these. I think it look fugly and expensive That's from "NZ Post" and minted by "BH Mayer's Kunstprageanstalt GmbH". Edited by shopaholic 08/14/2013 09:54 am Report this Post to the Staff
Lostwords Pillar of the Community Canada 1528 Posts	Posted 08/14/2013 09:56 am my bad.. yes from NZPost. If it is by NZMint, it would have some gimmick that come along with the coin Edited by Lostwords 08/14/2013 09:58 am Report this Post to the Staff
Silveroid Pillar of the Community Canada 6768 Posts	Posted 08/14/2013 10:52 am Quote: I think it look fugly and expensive IMO, it looks not bad. what actually we can expect from the Royal Birth coin? Clear design, Royal attributes, name, date. Well, there is no name. The baby here specified by parents and as "First Born". Don't the coin has almost everything that people complains about RCM coins? And mintage 1.500 In addition: NZ$139 = CAD 115.00 - cheaper than RCM "niobium" coin. Report this Post to the Staff
mcshilling Pillar of the Community Canada 9165 Posts	Posted 08/15/2013 6:19 pm Well I'm at the ANA show in Chicago and this morning the RCM put on a Tea Party to give away the 3 coin set, so my wife and I went, sad to say I did not get the set a young girl won them. We did get to have tea and snacks. Report this Post to the Staff
SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10460 Posts	Posted 08/15/2013 6:35 pm The real prize at the ANA show would be one of the RCM coin sets, with the ANA medallion. Mintage of only 500...

clvlys Valued Member Canada 103 Posts	Posted 08/20/2013 12:16 am There is an indicator of who the baby is in one of the coins. The beaver and moose stuffed animals were Canada's gift to the Royal baby. Otherwise, the coins are quite nice and come with a reasonably low mintage. Report this Post to the Staff
SA4H Pillar of the Community United States 2764 Posts	Posted 08/21/2013 2:08 pm Will other government mints coming out with "Royal Baby" coin sets? Royal Mint & NZ Mint + other micro nations? Report this Post to the Staff
Lostwords Pillar of the Community Canada 1528 Posts	Posted 08/21/2013 2:41 pm Nah I doubt it... I can only see mint in commonwealth countries doing it (Royal mint, the RCM, the NZPost, the Perth Mint )but I can't see any other country mint doing that Edited by Lostwords 08/21/2013 2:42 pm Report this Post to the Staff

commems CCF Master Historian of USA Commemoratives United States 12298 Posts	Posted 08/21/2013 3:06 pm Quote: Will other government mints coming out with "Royal Baby" coin sets? Here's a release on "new" coins being produced by the Pobjoy Mint for the British Virgin Islands: http://news.coinupdate.com/british-...-coins-2080/. They're not entirely new designs, but the incorporation of a privy mark regarding William's birth on each makes them different from their previous release.

The beaver and moose stuffed animals were Canada's gift to the Royal baby. Otherwise, the coins are quite nice and come with a reasonably low mintage. That may be obvious to the coin collector but the general public would have no idea that the coins were related to the birth of Prince George. The coins are too generic to be connected to the Royal Birth. That is why the coins have not sold out. If the coins had the name of the baby, it would have sold out immediately. Low Mintage means nothing if there is little interest in the coins. The Rick Hansen coin had the same mintage of 7500, yet it did not sell well at all. Report this Post to the Staff
