    So I haven't pulled out the tripod yet but I think I got some decent shots of this coin. I love the bird. It's kind of funny because the Bird is displayed near what appears to be a farm. Farmers hate these birds because they pick the crop dry in huge flocks. The farmers run around with shot runs shooting them in the air. I think the birds themselves are protected.

    Yes - Image 5 I think is the best of them. its a hard coin to take a picture of because it is so reflective and not particularly deep in strike. its a very detailed cut though. I can see the parrots ear, and the flight feathers look correct to my eye.
