atticguy Pillar of the Community United States 1373 Posts	Posted 05/15/2025 12:08 am I'm a huge fan of monarch butterflies! I am even trying to grow milkweed plants in my backyard to try to keep monarchs from fading away. It's just sad to me that the artist who drew the halve-kilo coin evidently has never seen what a real monarch looks like, as that design is way off. Report this Post to the Staff

I think the blame lies elsewhere, Ms. Heine submitted a painting to the Mint that accurately captured the Monarch butterfly in its natural environment - its conversion by others to Murano glass is where things went slightly awry. BTW, Ms. Heine also planted milkweed in her garden to attract Monarch butterflies. Collecting history one coin or medal at a time! (c) commems. All rights reserved. Report this Post to the Staff

IMO, it's important to have defined parameters for a collection, otherwise it can get out of hand and no longer be fun! (It becomes more of a chore to keep up!)
