Not sure how many others here are waiting with bated breath on their coin ... but couldn't hold my breath for one second longer and had to call the RAM. Seems there are been "problems" with the certs and delivery is expected mid to late April. I'm guessing 'mates' keep putting in late or larger orders, so the final mint number keeps changing

It arrived! Yay! I have coin #71 of only 330 coins minted.
Surely my investment will be worth a tad in the not too distant future with this exclusive and minted to order coin?
In hind sight I wish I had thought to coerce friends and family to become RAM Legend members and buy one on my behalf (only one coin per member was allowed).
Pictures to come shortly. In the meantime, it is a two headed silver proof $1 with Maklouf's two effigies of the queen on either side.

Sounds great, can't wait for the pics. They probably had to wait until after Anzac Day or two up might have turned ugly!

Ha, hadn't thought about the two-up benefit.
These piccies are cr*p, but before I throw my laptop and Kaiser camera OUT OF THE WINDOW in ABSOLUTE FURY   , these will have to do for now.


Cheers, M

Switch the light off on your USB microscope and use incident light from from a table lamp at a distance that does not produce flare. Those LED's are obvious.
I very much prefer the design of the Maklouf bust.

Me to Sel. The IRB bust isn't too bad but the Maklouf wins with me every time.

Thanks for sharing that with us awildeheart, very nice. At 330 mintage you're sure to be on a winner.  I'd hate to think of all the time I've spent mucking around trying to get the 'right shot'. Enworb, your new one seems to go really well. Before my current camera I had an early model canon and it took incredible pictures in macro mode! Unfortunately it lost the plot, gave up the ghost and ended up in the bit box.
