The above topic is in the Canadian forum, but one poster said to contact the NZ Mint, but ~~there is no NZ Mint as far as I know~~. See my next post. life is a mystery to be lived not a problem to be solved Edited by Nevol 06/28/2012 8:20 pm Report this Post to the Staff

dreaming1 New Member United States 22 Posts	Posted 06/28/2012 8:39 pm Now that you've helped me out with the correct mint I was able to find out a tad more. Here is a link I found on another forum. http://www.ubercoins.com/store/prod...0&featured=Y Seems it's not out yet and just in presale. Limited to 5000 Mintage & comes in encased in water with actual holes in the coin. (No idea how they do that) ebay prices have been as high as 180 shipped just a day ago.

I like to sit back and wait a few years and get them close to melt. With the low silver price at the moment I have been able to pick up some great $5,$10 and $1 1 oz commemorative coins at close to melt. Most of these were expensive when released and have now come down to a realistic price mostly due to the low silver price at the moment. Report this Post to the Staff
Sap Moderator Australia 16836 Posts	Posted 06/28/2012 8:54 pm The "New Zealand Mint" is not an official government mint; as far as I'm aware, it's never actually made legal tender coins in the name of New Zealand itself, only NZ dependencies like Niue; the only object appearing under "New Zealand" in their country-by-country listing is the "silver fern" bullion round, which is not a legal tender coin. Quote: comes in encased in water with actual holes in the coin. (No idea how they do that) A high speed drill, I suspect. But I find it curious that, although the description is of holes "piercing through the coin", the picture of the reverse does not show any holes. Maybe it's just a stock reverse photo? Quote: The above topic is in the Canadian forum... Since it's about a coin "from" Niue, I think I'll move both it and this thread to World Coins forum later tonight. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
Australian coin Pillar of the Community Australia 1244 Posts	Posted 06/28/2012 8:56 pm Yeah I got offered 1 for $100, which is under the estimated release price of $118. Still is a lot to spend. I would like to see it a price of $80 to make it a good buy. The mints just make things way to pricy for the actual market value. Report this Post to the Staff
