i saw this 2009 Belarus 1 rouble "Aquarius" coin from a Zodiac series, and the first word that popped in my head was "eerie"

Eerie-Coins

and the 20 roubles one - where Aquarius has zircon eyes - looks even more so!)

of course, it's a matter of taste, but I wonder if there are other coins that on first impression (or any number of subsequent for that matter) may be described as "eerie"...

***

addendum: shouldn't creators of the "Family Guy" claim their royalties)?

Wonder it they would work in a gum ball machine?
Would like to see the look on someone's face when emptying a vending machine and finding those.

Talking about eerie coins. Just look at the first U.S. Cents, Flowing Hair cents. Looks like some the goules that you see at Halloween. None the less I would still like to acquire one for my collection.

I think "the hand" is a Michaelangelo commemorative medal.

I gotta have that Belarus coin. They're *great* minters to begin with - their issues are of extremely high quality - and this one is unique beyond belief.
