Prepare for broken teeth with this coin *_*

My dentist would end up disowning me if I ever got one of these. The struggle is real!

Must stay calm and not rant about the "beanie babies" of modern coins............

Thanks Mat, what are you trying to do, spike my blood pressure?

 

I'm not a fan of ultra-modern novelty coins like this either, but... Chocolate!!

PS: It's Dmitry, not Mat

 

Yeah, sorry Dmitry, its been a long day at work.

 

I know how that goes, if it's any solace it only gets better

 

I remember the Juan Blanco Beanie baby posts. Would be nice to see him come back.

 

they have a weed leaf with the scratch and sniff that smells loike marijuana. lol

 

From what I can gather, they have mostly sold out on pre-sale from the mint, so I think it's a big yes.
At some point in the future there will be a huge premium on an example without bite marks.

 

Maybe if I get the marijuana coin , it'll give me the munchies and I'll have to get the chocolate coin .

 

Lol! I had a feeling someone would take it there

 

Next year it's the Streets and Sanitation Commemorative. I can only begin to guess.....:>(

 

Eh, maybe the Danbury mint is running out of Elvis commemorative plate images to produce. Maybe its a little less offensive than colorized guitar shaped coins, (um, maybe not).

Its a different market I guess. If people enjoy them I guess what the heck. I just wish such crud didn't always fill up so many pages of WCN. I dropped the subscription since it seemed they were more concerned with publicized the latest Tuvalu, Liberia, Marshall Islands, etc colorized trinket than actually talking about circulating coins. Again, if people enjoy it whatever, I simply have no interest.

 

I would have to agree. Though technically coins, I don't consider this class of coins a part of numismatics.

 

I'm feeling an overpowering urge to order one, check out the scratch-and-sniff feature, and then send it to ANACS, just so I can display it in a slab with "MS60 DETAILS - SCRATCHED".

 

Those folks need to open a window.

 

Strange, I'll stick with my Benin Canabis scent coin for novelty.
