justdidit, You don't want to piddle long or the Australian 2006 Year of the Dogs will be gone or will be so darned expensive you won't want it then! You go and buy a couple of Australian coins and you will be entering the realm of the Darkside!!! Next thing you know someone will be nominating you for the Knights of the Coin Table! Us Darksiders stick together!

Today, this coin has more than doubled in price if you can get one.I have not seen one listed on ebay for more than 6 months and dealers here do not have them.

Have a Look. Warning, it is a high resolution photo



That is a pretty coin Lim.

When the mint produces a colored coin they do it with some style. Many countries do produce some colored coins for colectors. These older coins are colored by companies after a quick dollar. I'm afraid that the Morgan dollar shown above looks...ah...cheap. Too much eye shadow makes Lady Liberty look like a tart. Just my opinion.
