I have NO idea what I ordered and they keep sending the things It is not at all bad for the price. I can live without POPUP packaging, but you have to admit it is cool for young children and well made. http://www.mrbrklyn.com/coins/maryanning_1.mp4 http://www.mrbrklyn.com/coins/maryanning_2.mp4
The problem with the extreme packaging is that it is not longer really a coin project. The coin is glued into the package and other than cutting up that lovely pop up art, you simply can't get at the coin. And the cheap plastic it is incased in. None of this can be known from reading the website when you purchase them You buy on faith.

Nah, that's Dan Rather or Mike Wallace........Mr. Brooklyn is tightly ensconced in the 'witness protection program'..........
Mr Brooklyn (MrBrklyn) is on a 6 day trip fishing out in the ocean. I hope he missed the gale force winds.
Tell him we miss him......... When you see him........six day trip? I couldn't countenance such a thing. I get sea sick after 5 minutes out..........
My point is, they gave a big package for a reasonable price and it puts the US mint to shame. And it is at least an interesting topical coin.
Those are super neat, I'm a bit confused about what you got after watching the first video, but I like the pop up dinosaurs, thank you for sharing.
