Dugong 1 once dollar

This is the new Perth Mint Shark Bay Dungong. What is a Dungong? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dugong



the Dugong itself is not painted, but silver with texture, creating an illusion of color and depth.

Hello

That is really an unusually wonderful coin.

Amanda

 

Yeah - I think that is the nicest of the set and if you asked me which one to buy, I'd say this one. The coin is very well designed.

More photos?

Amanda

 

I don't think I can take a better photo than that one. You can see him swimming in that coin.

 

I really like this picture and the coin. I think it is a break through in the artistry of coins.

More sterling work from the Perth mint, I love their Kookaburras but the Dugongs look even more beautiful.

 

Sterling work from the Perth Mint! I get it.

 

a dugong is like a manatee, and populates the coastal waters of australia, personally i don't like nclt, but this is a nice coin........

 

I just think this one coin desgin deserves more air time. I think it was a special run for the Coin Show in Perth.

 

Hello

Can you list 10 other coins with nicer designs this year?

Amanda

 

From this year, not sure. The Archeopterex coin, the canadian dinosaur coins minus the glow in the dark version, the Deft Painting coin, after that I'm lost.

 

Also the Dragons, The Western Wall golds which might actually be a 2011 coin

 

Hello

Do you have pictures?

Amanda

Amanda
