If ever you wanted a Polish 1 oz coin. It is the only ne they ever made, others were .925 or 28.28 g

Putting my Proofs (bullion) together and searching on ebay, I found this one:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Belarus-20-...em51af134ce2

almost entered a bid.
Well, this is new, Proof finish, .999 Silver and even F15 Privy. Suppose to fit perfectly mine concept of f15, specially that I do not have Belorussian bullion coin.
But....
again disappointment from the Eastern Europe...

They finally started to issue .999 Silver coins (2013 Ukraine, Belorussia), the design - looks like they copied Russian ballet coin...
but why 20 gram coin ? Not full 1oz coin...and this they mark as F15?
I understand, that maybe some historical pattern involved (like our Silver Dollar), or uniqueness...could be done better.

Added, not realy the topic theme but close:
Unpacking arrived "2013 Māori Art - Koru Silver Proof Coin"
I just hold my breath.....this coin is beautiful, "real" NZ coin...I want more (just do not need)
There are few on ebay, with BIN close as twice issue price.
Later this week - pictures

The link you posted doesn't say F15 in its description and had you not mentioned it, I might have missed it
just by quickly looking at that scan on ebay
Its priced with a hefty premium. It reminds me of the Royal Canadian Mint prices lol. but it is a F15...

About your Koru proof, it's a very nice coin and I'm anxious to see your picture (of it) because
I can't find one real picture on the internet other than the same scan.

Hello, I'm new to this forum but have been a RCM collector for years now. Reading this post, I just cancelled my Fab 15 subscription too! I received the 5th coin, the box and the watch and enough. The quality of those coins were far from being exceptions... I'm disappointed and actually wished I had not paid 500$ for that so far...

just received my 2013 Britannia. I like it a lot but it doesn't have the F15 privy on it anywhere. How many coins in this set actually have the privy on it?

Assuming, that you got 2013 Britannia BU (this fact caused me to cancel my 2012 F15 after 8-th coin....all of them BU and not Proofs).
Yes, the coin (actually all Britannia design) is very good.
But without disappointing, this coin could be found elsewhere for $45, without clear square capsule and COA (by RCM).

Another thing, that now makes 2013 BU less valued vs Proof:
They started to change design annually for Proof Britannia only, while BU version stays the same (2012 design).

But, you like the coin - enjoy it!

^ way to burst my bubble! I'm now going to use it as a pog slammer.

kidding ;) that's good info to know. I do know I'm paying a crazy premium and in the future i'll make my own sets, it's just I want a RCM completed set this time around.

Okay I got the picture in there. This is from the 2012 F15 collection. Believe it of not it has the privy mark and is proof.

This coin appears nowhere, too bad, I like it.

999 silver, face value is $10.00. Queen is on the other side. Size is 38.61mm
After seeing the last F15 in hand, that crazy small coin with the two old people on it, this was a very nice surprise.
My opinion this is the best of the F15 collection (2012).
respect to all,
Liverpool

Has anyone completed their 2012 Fab 15 set yet.
I'm still waiting for one :-(
Tiki is by far the best of the set so far :-)
