I'm new to coin collecting and would like to know more information about this coin. Has anybody heard of it? I believe it's Australian and only 5000 were minted.

Beautiful coin, but I'm trying to decide if it's worth $300 from an auction site.

feedback anybody?

Yes, I would say they are worth $300 as they sell under auction for $1100/$1200 on ebay,here is a few current listings on ebay.

By the way they are Tuvalu coins produced by the Perth Mint.

Awesome! this is the auction I'm looking at: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...RK:MESELX:IT

I'll probably wait until near the end to bid. Perth Mint is Australia, right? Why do they go for so much when they just came out in 2006?

I think they are very popular in the USA so I think thats what drove the prices up in a short period,the other coins in the Deadly & Dangerous Series have not gone anywhere near as well.
Here is a link to the coins released so far in this series.

Man, it just goes to show that Beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder. Although, it would be great for chasing girls. (Until one turns around and smacks you with a board.) LOL
