they're on the website now. Not impressed.
Royal 'infant' so they were designed and printed before the birth. Don't include the name or even the birthday date. Sad.

They look okay, no ugly faces, more generic and suitable for gifting purposes.... (cannot imagine someone gifting Perth Mint's coin to celebrate child birth). |

Designs are really generic. Wish they would have contained the name. Ordered the 3 coin set only.

Nothing ordered - not my cup of English tea....
No baby name, birthdate, wooden box, or even colour on the quarter. $5 has a 15k mintage which is a tad high.
Guess I'll wait for the 1st birthday coins next July.

I suspect these coins are going to be a major disappointment to most Royal watchers.
They've obviously been designed well ahead of the birth, so they have no real connection the baby George. The coins might as well be commemorating the birth of any infant, male or female.
As CC said, it's sad.
Needless to say, I won't be ordering any of these "let's cash in on the new Royal baby" coins.
